Friday I met with all my friends to get some exercise. Stanley and Murphy had just been "Snipped" so they weren't supposed to get wet, but I talked their mom and dad into just letting them get their feet wet. You know.....a dog who loves water should never be expected to just walk by a river....
Saturday Morning we met our Saturday walk group. We usually get to play in a big field for the first half hour and boy did we run and have fun.
Big Murphy met a new girl and I am thinkin he was Love Struck, cause he followed her around drooling and touching her and playing with her. HE even tried to show what a guy he can be but he got in trouble for that.
And the very best part is I found this big old pile of dried up cut grass. It was amazing. I used it to practice my camouflage skills. Head first.......
Then be sure to nussle your way around until you have a air hole for your Nose. Breathing is important.
Slowly wiggle your self down further an further into the pile.
Then lay absolutely still. Still as you can. They will never know you are there.
And finally a photo from Allred for his pal Sanskissjuice.
Hope you all have a wonderful wonderful weekend.

Your camo work is most impressive. It's a good thing there is a river nearby to rinse all that grass off.

Hey BERT... I made my dad sit down and STUDY your camo technique.. he has been doing ALL wrong fur SOOOOOO long.. and NOW I have all the confidence in the world that he will be able to be successful in camouflaging himself!!! THANK YOU my furend fur putting those supper camo training pics up.. I can almost TASTE a fresh antler and some nice deer meat in my future.
You have so much fun, Bert!

Thank you for convincing our peeps that we needed to dip a paw (or four) in the water. Unfortunately, next week we will still by under orders for dry land. Maybe you could work on them some more?
BTW, Big Murphy looks like he was flying through the air!
Your friends,
Murphy & Stanley
Hi Bert!
I just found you through Kim's blog (Life at Golden Pines) and am so happy that I did!
You look like SUCH a fun guy! I absolutely LOVE the photo at the top of your blog!!! I've GOT to find me some mud...
;-)
I had to write a serious blog post today because of some stupid humans, but my blog is usually pretty fun too. Stop by and say "Hi"!
I hope that we can be Pals!

LOVE those camouflage skills, I hope all that grass dusted off though!

Hi Bert,
Wow, that was really top class camouflage! For a second, your coat looked a shade darker so I thought it was Murphy nestled in the dried pile of grass.
Oh, Bert, my dear. Thank you so much for the photo of Allred. I hope you will have more stories about Allred in your upcoming posts. I would love to see your interaction with him. Inter-species relationship is so fascinating e.g. between men and women, you know? Maybe your Vickie can tell you a little more about that, if you haven't noticed already, hehe
Your biggest fan, love and kisses
PS Tip#1: See That photo with your butt sticking out? Send that to Charlotte. You looked so sexy, I bet it will get her heart throbbing! ;)
PPS: Don't you think Allred should have a female mate too? Can you help him meet someone special like you and Charlotte? Since you are smooth and all, you know, hehe. It is a compliment :) He may be less 'devilish' if he as a gf, just a suggestion.
Your ultra fan!
Woof to you Bert!!!! I'm super impressed with your camo skills. With skills like that, you could run with the special forces dogs! Much love to you - XXOO - Mazzie
Bert, you always make me laugh! I've never before seen a dog hiding in the grass. (And I almost didn't see you!)
Hey Bert, yous should tell Sankissjuice about Allred and me! We is boyfriend/girlfriend! Me knows me has 2 other boy cat friends, but me only dates those 3. And me loved seeing yous hide in the grass and Lady and Willa and Murphy and Stanley (Boy is those 2 growing fast).
Kisses sweet Bert and tell Allred, we meet tonight under the big pine!

Woof! Woof! Oh My on the pile of cut grass. Golden LAUGHS! Happy Weekend. Lots of Golden ALOHA n Woofs, Sugar
Bert, what a nice job of hiding, I can only imagine how sweet and fresh you must have smelled after that. I hope you were able to get a cool dip in the water to get all the grass off and possibly avoiding a bath later.
Loveys Sasha
Bert, you have the best ever Fridays. Love the camouflage photos mate. No worries, and love, Stella and Rory
We love those camo shots, Bert!
Good thing you told us you were under that dried grass, Bert. We would have never known! Great camo shots!
Love ya lots,
Mitch and Molly
You and your pals sure look like you were having fun and loved the dried grass pics. Have a Happy Sunday.
Best wishes Molly

You have some awesome skills at camo!
You are so silly, Bert! Mom would be really allergic to you!
Sam
Wow you sure did blend into the grass Bert!
No that is one way to blend into the environment - good for moose watching?
Your life sounds like mine. No time, no time. And then when I have time, I spend it with K rather than blogging...
Love love love the camo routine!
And, I can tell that Allred is actually sweet. I see it in his eyes :)
Thanks for commenting on my blog!
I had to look super hard to see what was going on in those grassy pics. Wouldn't have known you were there if you hadn't told me! Great camouflaging!
Wow ! Great camouflaging, Bert ! Your skills always impress me !
Kisses

I hope I'm leaving a comment for Bert... I saw him and then he disappeared and there was a cat... I might be the all-powerful, all-knowing alphadog at my house, but I don't have the patience to read... I just look at the pictures!!
Mom said you had a sleep in over the weekend... actually more of a sleep on. But, Bert, had I been there I'd probably have slept on you, too... Your fur, when not all muddified up, looks so comfy!!!

You're right, Bert. Breathing in very important when you're going incognito. Sorry to be MIA last week! I rode my bike across Georgia for seven days. I'm happy to be back and catching up!
Happy seeing beautiful!
Me and Murphy had a lotta fun with you big guys. At least I got to get my toes wet.
Is it just me or does everybody have this feeling that Allred is such a scary dude, no matter what angle he's captured in.
Wow, Bert! You sure look like... well, grass. Sounds like a fun weekend.
Huggies and Cheese,
Haopee
That just looks like so darn much fun! It makes me want to play in a big ole pile of grass too! Notice I said me, not Fred and Gloria. Ha!Ha!
Wow--If you hadn't told me I'd never have known there was a dog in that pile of grass.
Bert,
I nearly missed you in that pile of grass!!
Were you hiding from Allred - he always scares me!! I know I'm a chicken, but it's true :)
Woohoo - Murphy's got a girlfriend!! Sounds like he may need a few tips from you Dude :)
Hey, did you see my book? It's all about Mischief and I'd love it if you'd like to join us - you've got some great Mischief skills!! :)
Have fun,
Your pal Snoopy :)
Hi Y'all,
Thanks for stoppin' to visit me!
By the way, and I'll mention it again in Q & A later in the week...we aren't up at midnight either. We schedule our posts daily for 12:01am EDT. If you're on mountain time, I guess it's only 10pm there.
Don't miss tomorrow's post on BSL
Did you have to get groomed before your Miss Vickie would let you in the house after your disappearing act?
Hope y'all are havin' a wonderful, safe week.
Y'all come back now,
Hawk aka BrownDog
awe I love my Allred kitty!
Vickie, I cannot tell you how happy the pictures of Bert in the grass made me. I'm still giggling. It reminds me of being a child and doing the exact same thing. And that is one of the wonders of our four-legged friends: they have the joy of children and bring them out in us. Duncan likes to roll in the grass at the park and somehow managed to talk me into joining him a few summers back. And to my delight I discovered that not only did it cool me down but it made me feel thirty years younger.
Bless our dogs!
