What's that Smell ?

German Shorthaired Pointer super sense of smell once again comes in handy

  this photo could be used for a creative writing class, whereby the exercise is to develop a short story from a moment in time. B-Man's sensory of smell is 10,000 times more sensitive than the next know species on planet Earth. On the other end,.............   B-man's ability to break wind & allow those even those without a sense of smell, to enjoy his digestive aroma is 10,000 times as fierce than the BEST Fat man on the pork & bean cleanse.

Back Seat Dog

My Co-Pilot making sure we make all the right turns,...to the cottage.
He knows them all.

with my Monster Sweater on...

it was a sunny november day,
the sun shining with all its rays,
with my monster sweater on,
feeling cautiously brave,
i tempted fate and stuck my paws,
in the Bay.

helping in the kitchen

in the kitchen,...helping

hmm taking my picture again

knock at the door? wasn't expecting anybody

there's a fine line between the kitchen and the living room i've come to learn. by staying out of the "no fly zone" i can be rewarded with treats and the occasional empty rolo ice cream container. mom sometimes calls me "pre-rinse". i'm not completely sure i understand the meaning.

helping in the kitchen, is my thing,
helping in the kitchen, guarding everything,
smelling, sniffing,
chatting to mom,
a little humming ; a little singing,
..., i'm here,... don't you,  see?
i'm alert, tall , already  pee'd,

you're making dad's favourite,
hamburger soup
hurry up, i may have to poop,
straining to be an angel, or an "A+" pupil
the cupboards are clearly open,
we need more cheese, you simply,
don't have,.. enough

helping in the kitchen, ready to lick the pans
helping in the kitchen, peanut butter and no frills jam?
i'm being good,
as good as i have ever been,
my paws are outside the restriction zone,
turtle, rolo, chocolate death ice cream!

this morning i had expensive strawberry yogurt,
an apple or two,  or three
should i be telling you this ?
holy crap ! where's the goddam cheese?

helping in the kitchen,  give me my cue,
helping in the kitchen, fettuccine sauce will do,
ready to help and ready to clean
i'm Brodan,
the pre rinse machine/

Charlie is coming Home.

I was just thinking. I sure like my games of frisbee. Even when Dad can't be home to throw the disc every night, Mom does ok. She means well. Her throws are not often straight but I love her for trying. Now, Charlie has been playing in a 'frisbee league", I forgot the official name of the sport, but he claims he can throw a mean disc. Charlie is coming home this week-end so we will see. Charlie rest your arm, because you and me are going to play some frisbee.

Demolition Brodan

Hey B-Man fans, it has ben a while since we entered a blog. Brodan met the new cottage neighbors two German Shepherds and the welcome went well. Meanwhile Brodan has been very busy helping with some demolition work. In the picture Brodan is inspecting for rusty nails. You would never want to step on one. Or you would never want to have to pull one out from someone's foot either. Although it is a 3 hour trek to the cottage, Brodan is an excellent traveler. He always helps me finish my oatmeal & raisin tim horton's cookie. I'm pretty sure B-Man knows the route inside and out. He just seems to know the last two turns. Oh yes before we forgot to tell you all ; we saw a moose. I never stopped to ask Brodan if he saw the moose. Brodan, "did you see the moose?" B-Man, "how could you not!" Brodan's health is still good but he is starting to age. Showing more grey, sleeping more, and tiring more quickly after a game of frisbee. His singing continues to improve somehow.
if you're reading this please leave a quick comment for Brodan and say hi.

Man's best friend

Returning home last night after a few days business travel to Montreal, I see my Brodan waiting patiently at the upstairs window watching me unload my luggage from my car. As my feet land in the foyer my buddy is right there with his ball ready to play. There is something unexplainably fascinating about a dogs 100 % unconditional love. Ok Brod,..its time for our walk. :)

Past 3 Days ; Opening the Cottage

As you can see, it is strenuous work for yours truly. However, not a big fan of the black flies.

GQ Brodan

Dad made me do it. I don't mind the colour, but not sure I feel about the long sleeves. Was easy to get on & off. Aeropostale hand me down. I give it an eight (8).
