The (mis)Adventures of Sage

my life story as a dog

Monday Mischief: Up, Up and Over

Posted on July 22, 2012 by Sage

Some days are better than others, at least that’s what Mom said about the mischief I got into. It all started innocently. A dip in my friend’s pool

Ahhhh, it’s so refreshing after a fun trip to Mt. Tabor

A bit of a shake

Yep, that’s shake water.

And then, Blackie (my friend’s kitty) walked into the yard.

She said: ‘Let’s race!’

And we did.

Across the yard we went.

Blackie led the way, I was right behind.

Over the fence she went

and so did I.That’s the fence I went over.

We were just having fun….what’s the big deal? Oh, right, Mom. I’m not a cat. I’m not suppose to jump over fences. Well…..I do agility. Does that count?

Jumping over the fence rates high on our mischief scale! Nice work!

Oh, Sage, what fun you had!!! Lightning is our jumper here. He can sail over the gates in the house. Mom is so worried he will go over our neighbor’s fence, Ours is five feet on three sides, but the neighbor’s forms the fourth side and it is only about 3.5 feet – smooth sailing for that long legged boy.

So who won the race?

Woos – Phantom, Thunder, Ciara, and Lightning

  Blackie, of course. I think I took too long going over the fence. 🙂

Blackie and I had a little talk last night, and he was quite impressed by your jumping after him over a 5-1/2 foot fence. He had thought he could just take it easy once he was on the other side. I guess he knows now that you are an exceptionally talented puppy!

P.S. Blackie demanded lots and lots of petting from our Guardian last night and again this morning. I think he was a bit shaken that you got so close!

That fence looks pretty tall. You must have some serious hops! I’m glad my pups can’t jump that high. I hope you didn’t get into too much trouble with mom.

Impressive! Now my next question is–did your Mom scramble over the fence right after you?

  No. She was a sissy and went around. She did threaten me with 5 days in the slammer though.

Hey Sage, Jet here.

Whoa, you jumped that high? Sage, even though that wasn’t a great idea from the human perspective, from my K9 perspective you deserve an Olympic high jumping medal… 🙂

Lol sweet Sage it sounds like the race was on! That pool looks like a great place to cool after a nice race. You are quite the jumper but when you enter a race you gotta do what you gotta do, right? Hugs and nose kisses

Hey Sage,

You’re so funny!! You must have given your Mum a big shock!! I’m so glad you got back ok!! I have no idea what I’d do if a Cat actually came into our garden – it’s never happened yet!!

So, did you win the race? Silly question, hey? 🙂

Wags to all,

Your pal Snoopy 🙂
