Poor Doobie

Dear America,

Who knew not putting water in a dogs bowl could be so entertaining?

Love

Last night my friend and I went to another friends house. We were really just looking to hang out and have a little down time. As our friend was not home, but her kids were we decided to just hang and see what would happen. I can tell you know that we were very happy that we did.

As often happens with teenagers, the video games came out. So as we watched Rock Band, an odd thing happened. We kept hearing a noise in the kitchen. Now I have to admit that I get a little mesmerized by rock band. The music, the colors and the rhythm kind of get me. I can't help it, I just get sucked in. So I was suprised when my friend Kacey tapped me on the arm and asked me a question.

Kacey: "Is that Chair moving?"

Brian: "What are you talking about?"

kacey: "That chair! The one by the window. Is it moving? I swear that it is moving on it's own."

Now we have all been home during the afternoon. So we have all seen the show about people who encounter ghosts. So when you are in a place that you usually do not live and something happens out of the ordinary you tend to get a little scared. Kacey and I are not known for being practical when we are together. We are known for feeding off of each other, so I was surprised that we stayed calm through this endeavor.

We realized that what was happening was that Doobie the Dog was scratching at his bowl. This was causing the chair to move. Once we had established that the house was not haunted, we began to watch doobie. He would walk over to his bowl and scratch. He would then put his face into the bowl and lick. Once he had done this three times, he would then prance over to the living-room where everyone was sitting and do a little dance. Once done with the dance he would then start over again. We watched for about three times, when finally one of us said "Perhaps the dog is hungry."

When we looked into the bowl we saw that there was a bowl full of food. The dog looked so excited as we were looking at the bowl. But he did not want food. Well what was next? Water! The dog needed water. He had not had water in his bowl for sometime. As we poured water into the bowl, Doobie became very excited. Dancing on his hind legs and wagging his tail. He then drank for two min straight.

While this dog was drinking, we began a monolog of what this dog could be saying.

Doobie: "For the love of GOD someone give me some water. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE I need WATER? Some one put Water in my bowl.:

As he was looking at us... "Look fool, give me water! I will cut you if you do not give me water!"

as the water was being poured into the bowl :" Thank God! Finally! YESSSSSSSS!"

Doobie finally got his water and then he laid down to take a nap. This may not be funny to many of you, but it serves a purpose. If you want to laugh till you pee, forget to put water in your dogs bowl.
