Election Day is getting closer

The big day is getting closer and closer. I, Frankie the Dachshund, support BARK O'MOMMA.

I hope that you will be sure to get out and VOTE.

We need CHANGE IN EVERY JAR. We need to take care of the LITTLE CLASS. We need to be sure that all the big bullies are kept from taking everything for themselves.

My mom and dad have not voted early. They will wait until ELECTION DAY arrives. If there is a long line, they won't mind at all. They want what is best for all DACHSHUNDS and for all Americans. They don't mind waiting until Tuesday to vote. They don't mind waiting to cast their votes.

Getting our country back on the right track is worth the wait.

No COMPLAINin' And No Failin' Get 'em BARK !

The BARK's OBAMETER IS FALLING

With the OBAMETER falling it is surely going to rain on John Complain and Sarah Failin's parade. Do you suppose Joe the Bummer will get even more wet than he his now?

Change is needed

My mom and dad like change. They keep some of it in a jar. I think they want it for a day when it rains.

Change must be needed.

Bark O'Momma says he is going to bring change. I know that makes my mom and dad happy. Their jar of change has not been filling up very fast lately and they think they need more change.

I think that change must be used for some other things too. My mom is not happy about the change Bark wants for education though. She thinks that Bark should give the schools money but that they should not tell them what and how to teach the kids.

Bark talks about helping the little class. He talks about helping the working people. He never says how he would help the people who have worked for a long time and now they BE TIRED.

My mom and dad both BE TIRED. They think that Bark O'Momma will bring change to them too.

They trust BARK. SO DO I.

7 Days until the ELECTION !

Bow Wow! It is almost here ! I hope that everyone goes out and votes. My mom does not like the early voting thing. She says it is like opening Christmas Gifts on Thanksgiving.

I hope that everyone will wear RED WHITE AND BLUE on that day. You don't need to spend $150,00.00 on the things though. I am sure you have plenty of things in those colors already in your closet. I only have one shirt and one neck scarf but they are both RED WHITE AND BLUE.

Are you listening to what BARK O'MOMMA is telling people he will do for us? I hope so.
We need what he believes in.

Be careful about what that FOX is saying. It doesn't like BARK very much. It does like John Complain and Failin' Sarah.

I will be really glad to have a new President. I hope he will get our people out of war. Dachshunds do not really like fighting very much. Especially when it is not about the right things. I am pretty sure that Bark will stop the fighting. That will be a very good thing.

Give Bark O'Momma 2 Paws UP

Bark O'Momma is a good man. He will take us on a much better walk than we have been on for a very long time. We need a good walk now. With BARK holding our leash we will stay on the right path.

I give him my 2 paws up.

Bark O'Momma wants to put help everyone have more snacks. He doesn't want snacks just for the really lucky dogs.

Wag your tail for BARK O'MOMMA.

HE IS A MAN FOR THE LITTLE DACHSHUNDS.

TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE

SARAH, SARAH, SARAH, I just don't know what about that Sarah.

Today she is telling people that she is wearing second hand clothes and homemade earrings.

She can't fool this dachshund. She still has all that make-up junk on and she is still wearing that fancy fur do.

I don't need makeup and all I need for my fur is a good brushing and a bath once a... well we won't go into how often I think I need to do that. My mom and I differ on the subject. If it is good enough for a dachshund, it is good enough for Sarah who is still FAILIN' to make the right points on the right issues.

She gave up her "power colors" on the outside but she just is not one of us on the inside.

Too little, too late. Sorry Sarah. Your advisors need to get you some cheese!!! Maybe they should have some too. Cheese helps you learn. Just ask me. I am living proof.

RED RED and more RED

OKAY, now here is the deal with all that red. Sarah Failin' is just trying to show everyone how powerful she thinks she is. That is just like being a bully. We are smart enough to see through all of the tricks and stuff. Dachshunds know a lot about tricks.

There are two times when red is not good. It is not good when you are trying to be a big ol' show off. (Like Sarah is doing.) And it is not good on a MAP during election time. GO FOR BLUE !!!!!!

I know why Sarah Failin' needs to have someone fix her hair like that.... Have you noticed how it sticks up in a big bunch at the top??? I know what is under there. I also know why she wears all of that red. She uses all that hair on top to cover up her..... HORNS !!!! Who do you know about that wears RED all the time and has HORNS??? Think hard now. It is almost Halloween. That is when people dress up to look like something or someone different.

Sarah is dressing to look like one of us.... but underneath all those fancy schmancy clothes and all that poofy hair and make-up..... lurks...... a DEVIL !!!!

Don't forget... those sneaky FOX FOLKS are red, too !!!! Dachshunds and Donkeys are not so easily fooled !!!!!

Somebody is Failin' ! AGAIN

Somebody needs to sit down and talk to this Failin' Sarah. She is way over the top.

Not only did she allow $150,000 to be spent on clothes and stuff for her to wear, now she has had someone paid $22,000 for two weeks of hair and make-up.

I will admit that she needed her bangs cut. I got tired of seeing that hair in her eyes! She looked like a SHEEPDOG. Those are not dachshunds, you know. But come on, give me a break. $22,000 dollars to make her look better. When my hair gets too long my mom just cuts it off. When I think I need to look better I just go out to my brushpile and roll around a bit. COST>>> NOTHING !! ZERO !!! ZIP !

When people are losing their houses, not to mention all the dogs that have lost their dog houses, how in the world can ANYONE justify all that money being spent. Gosh, they should have called my mom and I and we would have fixed her up for nothing. Then they could have given that $22,000 to food banks and.... dog shelters !!!

While the rest of our country worries about just keeping warm clothes on our backs, and being able to be clean, and have our tummies full, those crazy SMELLEPHANTS are spending money on nonsense! They should take a look at the real world.

We right thinking donkey people are the ones who get things done and the smellephants want all our hard work to just benefit a very few of THEM. They have made things really bad for everyone else. They are just a bunch of dirty rotten bone stealing bullies.

I am sure that Bark O'Momma doesn't waste money like this Failin' Sarah does. He does not wear all that scary red either. I'll talk more about that later.

Beware the FOX !!!

Be very careful what you believe from a FOX. FOX are very sneaky. They do things a dachshund would never think of doing.

Those sneaky FOX even have their own channel on the TV. I don't watch it because I already know all about how decptive a FOX can be.

Those nasty little FOX have said some bad things about BARK O'MOMMA. Be careful what you listen to, and what you believe.

Be like a dachshund. Think for yourself.

Al Qaeda Kennel raises mean Terriers

I did not come from a kennel so I don't know as much about them as I should, but from what I heard on the news last night there is one kennel that is really bad. It is called Al Qaeda and it is infamous for raising really vicious TERRIERS !!! You know that Terriers are certainly not great like Dachshunds.

Then I learned that this Al Qaeda kennel is now supporting JOHN COMPLAIN ! I am not surprised that JOHN COMPLAIN would somehow be supported by those nasty TERRIER breeders.

This is just one more reason for you all to get out and support BARK O'MOMMA. I have told you before that he has nothing to do with Terriers. Now we have the proof that Terriers don't want anything to do with him. I say, DOWN WITH AL QAEDA KENNEL AND DOWN WITH THEIR VICIOUS TERRIERS !

Way to go BARK !!

P.S. I am certainly glad that Joe Hidin doesn't wear fancy clothes. Clothes don't matter. It is what you know that counts. Joe isn't HIDIN behind "material" issues.

MICE don't care about clothes

I heard on the news this morning that someone gave Sarah Failin'

$150,000 to spend on clothes and stuff.

She wants to be the MICE PRESIDENT. She should know that MICE don't care about clothes. Mice want food and a nice place to live. They want to be warm when it is cold outside. MICE don't need fancy clothes. Dachshunds and mice have fur. They do not think so much money should be spent of silly clothes.

My mom buys her clothes at k-mart. People need clothes that keep them warm in winter because they don't have good fur like MICE and dachshunds. I know that somebody gave Sarah Failin' all that money to spend, but they should have told her that she could have given some of the money to charity instead of giving her fancy clothes away. If people need charity they don't want fancy clothes that won't keep them warm. They want real life clothes like my mom gets at K-Mart.

If all that money was spent on cheese and dachshund treats the world world would have been better off.

I just don't see how this silly silly (furless) woman can ever hope to become a good MICE President. She just does not see the big picture. And neither do the people who gave her all that money. Sarah failed again. She could have just said "NO" to all those fancy schmancy clothes. As MICE President she should know that what is important is for everyone to have some sensible fur substitute(clothes) and enough CHEESE to eat.

Someone should tell her that all those red clothes are really dangerous. Wearing red just makes her a target. Learn from the MICE that you want to be leader of. Go for dark colors and quit trying to show off. It is too early to dress like Santa Paws.

Bark O'Momma would not be silly like this and neither would his friend Joe Hidin'.

Sarah FAILIN' , rodent ruler ?

I don't think Sarah has even tried to learn her lessons. No wonder she keeps FAILIN'. This silly woman wants to be the MICE PRESIDENT and she doesn't even know all the rules for being one.

I know something about MICE. They are really small but they are fast as all get out. I have 3 mice that live in the back yard. I have tried to work with them and it is a real hard job.

So how does Sarah ever expect to be a good MICE PRESIDENT if she spends all her time talking and not learning the things she is supposed to know. Cheese, I say. She needs more cheese in her life. First to help her learn her own lessons, and second because everyone knows that MICE love cheese.

I am surely glad that Sarah Failin' didn't decide she wanted to be the president of dachshunds. I feel sorry for the mice though. I kind of like the 3 in my backyard. I wouldn't want Sarah being their leader. They may end up going in the wrong direction and invading in my house. The MICE PRESIDENT needs to be trustworthy. They aren't all blind, you know.

THEY DIDN'T PLAY at all !!!

I don't think I will ever understand people. Everyone said I was going to be in a play. I was very excited. I wanted to be in the play. I love to play. So tonight was the first night to practice how we were going to play.

Guess what??? No one played at all. All they did was read stuff and laugh. They didn't even get down and roll on stuff. NOTHING!!! I don't think they know how to play.

There is supposed to be another practice on Wednesday night. I think I will just have to teach them a trick or two !!!

that SARAH is really FAILIN' this time !!!

See what I tell you about this silly woman. She is truly in need of training. Someone please get some cheese for her. That is how I learned all the great stuff that I know. When my mom helped me with my homework she always gave me cheese when I got things right. Cheese for SARAH who is FAILIN'.

She actually said this on the TV. I heard it with my own long ears.

"When you get into a hole, you just have to get out."

That just proves that she doesn't know anything.

When a dachshund gets into a hole (which are wonderful things, by the way) they just dig deeper and wider!!!! Silly woman ! I'll bet she eats Tricks instead of the rabbit.

Bill the Ayerdale, I don't think so.

Here they go again. This John Complain and his friend Sarah Failin' are still telling people that my BARK O'MOMMA is running away with terriers and now... they are saying it is true because Bark knows a guy called BILL THE AYERSDALE. I am sure that BARK does not run away with an AYERSDALE. AYERSDALES ARE NOT DACHSHUNDS. Ayersdales are big dogs with wire hair and very long legs. What would BARK O'MOMMA want to run away with someone like that. Anyway, Ayersdales are not necessarily TERRIERS. So what if this Bill the Ayersdale does have some mix breeding with TERRIERS. That would have been way back in his past. No Big Deal!!!

Oh sure, BARK and Bill may live in the same neighborhood. They may have met at some park or something and they may even have sniffed at the same thing one time. That does not mean that BARK really had a lot to do with this Bill the Ayersdale. They are not good friends like I am with Barney and Sadie and even Sarge. It just means that they were in the same park at the same time. Maybe they did pee on the same tree. So what. Lots of other dogs probably used that tree too.

I say that we must stop this COMPLAIN AND FAILIN' in their tracks.

ACORNS ? No way !

You must be kidding about this one. ACORNS are nuts. ACORNS are for SQUIRRELS and maybe a Terrier or a Tear-ist. Certainly no one would believe that ACORNS are anything a dachshund would want to deal with. I know that BARK O'MOMMA wouldn't give an ACORN more than a passing sniff. Deer like ACORNS. Dachshunds like to eat deer (this one does,at least). That still does not mean that a dachshund has any close connection to the ACORN. Maybe I peed on one once. I'm not sure about that though.

I just don't see any close connection between the great BARK O'MOMMA and those squirrely old ACORNS. BARK O'MOMMA is much to classy to hang around with nuts. If you believe it then you must be a bit squirrely.

NOT WITH TERRIERS EITHER !!!!

OKAY !!! I have just about had all the negative stuff I can take. I am tired of people spreading all these lies about my guy... BARK O'MOMMA. LET ME SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT RIGHT NOW. Bark does not hang around with Terriers (registered or otherwise).

Bark is a too smart for that. He is for sure a DACHSHUND man.

I am really sure that there are no pictures of Bark O'Momma that show him playing with any Terriers. I know he would never be caught throwing a ball for a Terrier. There are thousands of REGISTERED (and un-registered) TERRIERS in this world and not a one of them can be linked to BARK O'Momma !!!!

BARK WILL HELP THE LITTLE CLASS

BARK O'MOMMA has said over and over that he wants to help the LITTLE CLASS. I am all in favor of that.

When I went to my school we had a little class and my teacher really needed help. There was one boxer boy in my class that was just a total bully. My teacher could not make him behave. Not even his people could. So I am really sure that the little class needs to have all the help it can get.

That bully dog just made life awful for all the other good dogs in my little class. He did not listen, he tried to bite us, he always tired to take our snacks. Taking from the little guys is not a good thing. Especially when the big bully sneaks and does it. That is what happend. That bully already got great big snacks even when he didn't do good at his lessons. Then he would grab all of the little snacks that were for the rest of us. The very worst part of this is that his people used to tell him he was good and then... they would give him even more snacks after he had taken ours. That is just not right. The big guys should not take from little ones.

Our teacher said there were rules but nobody made that bully follow them.

This is a real story about the little class. Now you can see why BARK O'MOMMA wants to help the little class which needs it so much.

Somebody needs to stand up for the little class and BARK is going to do that. YEA!

Sic 'em BARK !! Fight those bullies.

DACHSHUNDS KNOW BETTER

I am so proud to be a dachshund. We know more than most people do.

Dachshunds come in different sizes and many colors. Some have smooth hair, some have wire hair, and some (like me) have long curly hair.

The wonderful thing about dachsuhunds is that no matter what we look like on the outside, we are all the same on the inside. And it is the inside that really counts.

We don't think or say bad things about other dachshunds just because they are not the same color or have the same kind of hair as we do. So what in the world is wrong with humans ??? Why can't they be smart like we are?? They think that there is something wrong with each other just because they have different colors!!! How crazy is that?? People should be ashamed of themselves.

Color just doesn't matter !!!!

It is what you are ABOUT that counts.

I'm Frankie, and I PROVE this message.

John Complain and Sarah Failin'

Just who are these people. What does this JOHN have to COMPLAIN about anyway? I hear he has lots and lots of houses. I only have one. And just ask yourself this one... Why exactly is this Sarah FAILIN' ?
Where is her mom? Doesn't anyone help her with her homework?
Bark O'momma says that his mom helped him with his lessons. When I went to my school, (PetSmart) my mom helped me with all my lessons every day. She wanted to make sure that I didn't FAIL. And I studied really hard to make sure that I learned how to be good and not do things that are against the rules.
This SARAH FAILIN' really should go back to school. Maybe she should look and see if there is a branch of my school near her. I think she needs to learn what they teach there. But she will have to work hard and study all her lessons or she is just going to keep on failin'. We should not have people failin' in this country. I think that JOHN should not Complain. He should help his friend Sarah, because she needs it.

BARK IS NOT A TEAR-IST

Can you believe what these silly people are saying about my BARK O'MOMMA?
They are calling him a TEAR-IST. He is not a tear-ist. This is just more stuff that man JOHN COMPLAIN and his friend SARAH FAILIN' are making up. This tear-ist stuff is just not true.
I know a tear-ist. That would be my cousin Sarge. (Sarge is not a Dachshund.)
This guy doesn't even use his real name which is Sargent. He does that because he is trying to hide from the stuff he does. He is a very big dog and he does really bad stuff. He is a real live tear-ist and that is for sure. I have seen him doing stuff. He tore up his people's couch and chair. He tore up their drapes. He even tears up my toys when I take them to his house. Sarge is a professional tear-ist.
This is not at all what BARK O'MOMMA is like. You can't find one person who has ever seen him tearing up furniture and drapes and toys. That proves that he is not a tear-ist doesn't it?
Have you noticed that Bark always ends his TV stories with, "I'M BARK O'MOMMA and I prove this message."
I like that part a lot. So I am going to end my message that way.

CAST YOUR VOTE

My mom says that everyone should vote in every election. She has never missed voting since she was 21 years old. I can not vote yet because I am only 2. If I could vote I know who I would vote for. I keep hearing about this man with a really neat name. I would vote for him. On the TV they keep saying vote for BARK O'MOMMA. I think everyone should bark for their momma so that she can always know where they are. That is what I do when I am playing outside. My mom calls me, and I BARK ON HER. Then she tells me it is okay since she knows where I am. And that is why voting for BARK O'MOMMA would be good. Everybody would know where he stands when he is called. Good boy BARK . I hope you win.

FURTER-lizer

Well, my dad finally explained why he dumped HORSE POOP in my garden. He says it is for making the garden grow better next year. I did not know about that. I am still not going to put my poops there. If I did, it would be called FURTERlizer. he he he

My first AUDITION.

I went to the audition for the Christmas play. I got to go up on stage with a very pretty lady. In the play she might be my pretend mom. I wasn't afraid or anything because this lady was very nice to me. I paid very close attention to what the teacher was saying. My friend from writing group was there too. His name is Michael. I think being in this play will be very fun for me.

AUDITION DAY

Today is the day for me to audition for the Christmas play that my writers' group wrote. I am very nervous about doing this audition. When I was in my school, I always got to practice my lessons for a week before I had to do the things in front of my teacher. This time my mom did not help me because she doesn't know what I may be doing in the play. I just don't think that is fair to me.
The other thing that is not fair is that my mom says I have to take a bath before I go to this audition thing. I don't know why that has to be. I had a bath last week. It is not good for my fur to have too many baths.
When I get back home from this audition thing I am going to run right out to my garden and dig and dig and dig. That always makes a dachshund feel better about the world.

something missing

I am just learning how to use this blog thing. I wanted to talk about how nervous I am about the auditions for the Christmas play. I did write all about that and then I posted it. Or at least I thought I did. It didn't show up. Maybe it went out to play in the garden before it went to the computer. I can understand that.

I just do not understand some people.

Just when I think I am beginning to understand my people they go and do something silly. Today my dad tore all of the good plants out of my veggie garden. I still had much work that I wanted to do there. He even got the mower out and chopped up all the stuff that I like to sort through. There was great stuff in there. I did get to play with the big toad before he got chased away by the mower. Now there is no place for me to find all my favorite hidden treasures. I don't know where the mouse will go now. My mom did pick up my toad and put it under the steps.
I really couldn't believe what dad did next. He drove his truck into the garden and started dumping out HORSE POOP. Now I just want someone to explain to me why he would put that in the garden. I would never put my poop there !!! Just what was he thinking? We eat things that come from that garden. Well I just may need to rethink that for next year.

FRIDAY MEANS CLEANING DAY

I never have liked the day that my mom cleans the house. I just get all my things in the living room just the way I want them and then she comes along and takes them all back to my room. My favorite toys and chew things get thrown into my toy baskets and I have a terrible time getting them back out and taken all the way into the living room again.
That is the part that makes me angry.
Then she brings out the sweeper thing. I really am a little bit afraid of that. It makes all sorts of noise and I am not sure if it will suck me inside.
It is a good thing that today is supposed to be really nice.
I think I will just go out and work in my favorite brush pile. I'll try to catch that pesky chipmunk that is driving me crazy.
My mom has been trying to take my picture while I am doing this job. She is having trouble because all that she can see is my tail sticking out. I think it serves her right for putting my toys away and making all that noise. hehehe

THE NEW FLOWER BED

Today I worked very hard helping my people make a new flower bed in front of my house. They are not very good at doing that kind of hard work and getting it done right. I just do not know what they ever did without me. I showed them how to dig and where they should dig then where they were supposed to put the lights and things. It was very hard for me to keep them working and not be playing around. This is a picture of me doing my final inspection of my mom and dad's work.

Hi Dachshund lover,
It was wonderful to have my first blog answered already. Yes, I am very busy. That keeps me from getting into trouble. I didn't tell anyone this part though. I am going to be trying out for a part in a community theater. It will not be a "speaking" part though. hehehe.

My first Blog Posting

Hello,
I love to write to people and other dogs. I have a lot to say and to tell about my daily life. I hope that some nice boys and girls will be interested in reading my blog. I have been having a lot of fun both sending and receiving emails.
