Dear Diary,
I had some fun yesterday. While mom was out doing… whatever it is she does when she should be home catering to my every need, I was hungry. But there was no food in my bowl. I was thirsty, but I had finished my water. It was unacceptable. My general policy is when my bowls are empty to nudge them out into the living room and flip them over. It gets their attention, and then they awww and coo about how smart their “baby boy” is. Yea, it’s rocket science to move a bowl. Morons.
Since she wasn’t home, I decided to make a statement. When she came home, she found me on the couch with my two heavy ceramic bowls right next to me. Stacked. One on top of the other. (It’s all about presentation, really.) She was completely flabbergasted. She will never know what kind of black magic I used to get the bowls on the couch.
Dance, monkey. Dance.
Abracadabra,
Horatio

Horatio,
I am very impressed by your latest exploit. I find you to be fascinating. Perhaps someday you could amuse me with an explanation for your bowl moving feat of greatness?

Dear Secret Admirer,
Yea, no. I don’t think so, plebeian.

@jessabean: It’s great, and it’s terrifying. Our dog is just… he knows things.
Dear Deutlich,
Yea, I totally am.

Dear goodbear,
Antics is the wrong word. It’s a finely honed craft.

Horatio, you are too frickin’ cute!!! And apparently have stealth strength.

Hehe. Loves it. Your dog is awesome.

That’s insane! I think Horatio must have had some human assistance. Seriously.

Dear Supergirl,
You have no idea, young one.
Bones,
Horatio
@dmb5_libra: Haha I know. Creepy, but awesome!
@Jess: You’d think, but no one was home! It’s just my fiance and myself, and he was at work until WAY after I got home. Freak strong puppy did it himself.

What a crazy (but loveable) pooch!

Dear Horatio,
Good work for such a young pup! Perhaps one day you will be initiated to the mysteries of opening ziploc bags, unscrewing screw-top bottles and using doorknobs. It freaks the humans out.
Sincerely,
Felix and Chester

Dear Horatio,
I tip my paw to your most esteemed trick. As a cat, I find it best to scare and intimidate my human via angry stares and nonverbal abuse. She jumps through hoops just to have me acknowledge her existence by allowing her to pet me. But even I must admit confusing the tall ones with the old bowl trick was a touch of genius!
Paws in Arms,

@Kez: Yea, he’s insane, but… disgustingly adorable.
Dear Felix and Chester,
Tell me of these dark mysteries. I can pay you in kibble and Soviet secrets.
Bones,
Horatio
Dear Squeaker,
You should try it sometime, and kudos for keeping your human under your paw.
Bones,
Horatio
