Phone call at lunch

Rich has been taking Hudson to work at the boat yard while he's been home the past week. Lunchtime is play time (although poor Hudson ... his friends --Rich's brother's dogs plus another golden they are taking care of-- have all decided not to play with Hudson. Even his best friend Morgan the chocolate lab isn't interested in playing with him anymore. Rich thinks it's because he's so big and plays rough. But that's for another post...)

Anyway, at lunch today here is the phone I got:
Rich: Go get it. Get the stick!
Hudson: (whine, whimper, whine)
Rich: go get it!
Hudson: (Louder whine and whimper)
Rich: come on ... you can do it, go get it!
Hudson: (Seriously loud wookie talk with whine and whimper)
Rich: Come on ... Good boy!
[Loud whine followed by big splash]
Rich: Good boy! Oh my gosh ... Hudson? Are you coming up?
[water shaking noise, followed by more whining]
Rich: That's a boy! good job! Way to go! Come 'mere.
Me: Hello?
Rich: Hi. Guess what we're doing?



I guess Hudson tried to jump off the floating pier, but he kind of dove and disappeared under the water for a few seconds.

OH ... and here's how the phone call ended:

Rich: Hudson ... Hudson? NO, NO, NO! No ... Leave It! Stay away from that ...
Ugh ...He's rolling in a dead fish.

OH well, at least I can be there through the miracle of the telephone! Surely he'll have him all bathed, dried and fluffed up by the time I get home! ;)

That is too funny! Hudson must really like the water!!! It's so nice he is able to be so close to it.

I think it's time for more pics...hint, hint. ;)

That is just too funny. But surely you jest. You really expect him to be bathed, dried and fluffed. Sure sounds like a serious wager here!

I'm glad he can have so much fun with his Daddy!

Sounds like he was having a great time (even if his buddies decided to exclude him from the play-group!) Hudson needs another newf little brother or sister. :D

What do you mean nobody wants to play with Hudson!?!?!! Do we need to send "newfie muscle" around to your inlaws to *ehem* uh, set things straight? :D Poor Hudson! This happened to Ozzy too at around Hudsons age, they are still so puppy energized but huge that they just intimidate every dog of lesser stature!

I sincerely do hope he IS bathed and fluffed by the time you get home! If not natures miracle "skunk oder remover" works, well miracles. But heres hoping your Husband has it taken care of!!!!!

Funny you should mention that. Taylor's Mom (who was asking the other day about adding another newf to the family) got me thinking and then when I heard that Hudson was not being included in any reindeer games I told Rich I knew the perfect solution to the problem.

he said, "Don't even say it. I know what you're thinking. Do not think that already!"

He says we have to wait until Hudson is full grown before we can even discuss it. Well, full grown is a long time away and that's a lot of time not being included in doggy games. I think we settled on waiting until Hudson is at least showing some signs of being mature enough to not have to be crate bound when we're not around (the living room crate capacity is pretty much maxed out with just the one giant crate!)

As for the bathed and dried newf ... you guys are probably right. They get to have all the fun and I end up cleaning up the mess! I've heard it's that way with two-legged kids too! :rolleyes:
