2010 World Pup MOS vs GRC

I had a bit of a rough night last night. I got a little sick on FauxMama's carpet.  I felt so bad, I tried to clean it up, but I didn't know where the Resolve was so I didn't so a very good job.  FauxMama helped me out with the Resolve. Its all clean now.

We went to "park" if you can call it that for a bit (read Where are the Dog Parks in Clovis?) and then went to get me some new food!! Yum!! Yum!! I love my Nutro Lamb and Rice !!!

Then my day brightened up!!! I met Gracie, a 3 year old black lab.  Our relationship got of on the wrong paw, I was a little aggressive for her taste. I didn't actually hurt her, I was just a little vocal in telling her that I wanted to play!! Once she realized that I had a big bark, and no bite, it was GAME ON!!!

FauxMama, Macy, and Elizabeth Swann (Gracie's Mama) all cheered us on from the sidelines while watching the World Cup! I must say I have found myself a worthy adversary. That girl is quick on her feet, and does this "spider monkey" move where she runs through the house and then uses a sofa as a back stop to stop her momentum.  I'm not really comfortable with her doing that, as I'm not allow on the furniture at my house.  But I do like that she bounces back into action!!! It was a fun afternoon!!



When we got home FauxMama had some chores to do, apparently in Clovis you have mow the lawn. I don't really get it, I thought the parks department took care of that....Anyway I decided to help her. And by help I mean claiming the bushes in her yard and her neighbor's yard, mine!  Then I found one of my favorite new games in the bushes!! RUN KITTY RUN!!! I chased that cat ALL the way home!! Boof!

(Note from FauxMama: Although this seems unsafe, for both Mosley and for the Kitty, I promise you it was safe!!! And I have to admit that I ENJOYED EVERY MINUTE of the chase. That cat uses MY house for his litter box all the time!! Kitty there's a new Sheriff in town! MOSLEY!)

After the game of RUN KITTY RUN, we went to the "park" in FauxMama's neighborhood for a little game of Frisbee.  Again Clovis' definition of a park is weak! It was itty bitty! But I still got in a several great Frisbee catches!! It was again SILLY hot in Clovis today, so I am now chilling in the air conditioned house, resting after another big day in the sticks!

I wonder what tomorrow will bring? I think we are going to Hanford again!!!


AM: I ate all kibble but not my Dasuquin.
PM: I ate all my kibble and my Dasuquin.
Stool: Still LOOSE.
Sore: Appears to be smaller. The two little ones still appear to be almost gone. And the scab on the larger one is much smaller, although there is still a bit of inflammation.

Where are the Dog Parks in Clovis?

Today FauxMama, Macy, and I went to this park looking thing...You be the judge!! 
I don't really think it looks like a park.  There is always strange stuff in the SF parks, but never tires and piles of wood. Despite the unconventionality,  I did enjoy smelling everything!  And in this picture on the right I look like a real hunting lab!! Come on Fresno and Clovis get some better Dog Parks!!

Note from FauxMama: I will agree that we need MORE dog parks.  But I was smelling some foul smells in the car and decided it was better for my car if we stop to let the offender take care of business, so we stopped at the first available field.  I am not sure who was to blame, because both dogs had some pretty loose business!! And my car was saved!!

I own Hanford, CA!

Today we went to Hanford, CA...Have you ever been there? Not such a bad place!!

FauxMama's parents are remodeling their house, and FauxMama is helping out. So we will be going down there quite a bit in the next few weeks.  Its about a 55 minute commute to the Hanford house, with the sunroof open, and windows down!! This is traveling Mosley Style! Once we arrived it was a bit chaotic. FauxGma and FauxGpa have two dogs, one that is a Westie, Maddie, and one that appears to be a stickless mop, Twinkie.  Clearly the name says it all!! Twinkie isn't a huge fan of me! I'm a bit big for her liking! That's okay, I think she is a bit small, and I don't really care about her!  Actually later in the day I thought for a brief moment she was a cat, until she let out her high squawk of a bark!! When we arrived I was so torn whether to follow FauxMama or explore.  It was really overwhelming!! FauxMama had a quick meeting before being able to give me a tour of the grounds, I had to wait outside. I have decided I don't really like to wait outside.  I let FauxMama know by barking at the back door!!

For years I have thought I was a big toughie!! It turns out that just like every other 21 year old guy, I am insecure!! Who knew?? I mean I have never really been left alone outside. I am always accompanied by my posse, my Mama or my Papa!! And being outside alone is kinda unnerving!

During the tour of the property I realized, I could really like this place.  There were LOTS of trees for me to claim, a pool that I will dive into another day, and a fun new game "Run Kitty Run!" Turns out I'm good at this game, but the Kitties are better at this game!! Both Kitties I played scored by running up a tree! Ugh! I haven't really figured out how I score, but I am REALLY sure that Kitties have home court advantage!!

We took several car rides today apparently FauxMama's air conditioner went out in her car. Seriously it was the WORST day for that to happen, its 108 degrees in the Valley today!!! REALLY!!! So we had to have it fixed, then take FauxGma to Physical Therapy Unlimited, Starbucks, and Union Bank. Physical Therapy Unlimited even let me wait inside for FauxGma to be done!!  Did you know that there is drive through banking in Hanford. It's brilliant!!! Bank from your air conditioned car, yes please!! I enjoyed our errands, I got a ton of attention. I am not sure that Hanford-ites are used to seeing 80lb dogs in public places. But I was the perfect ambassador!!

Oh and I saw two 1,200lb dogs today!! I barked at them to let them know, I WAS BOSS!! I even tried to smell one of their back ends while FauxMama fed them.  But FauxMama was very adamant about me staying out of their kennel! So I did.  She tried to explain that they were horses, I was like yeah a horse of dog!!

AM: I ate all kibble but 5 and my Dasuquin.
PM: Left about 20 kibble. And still didn't eat my Dasuquin.
Stool: LOOSE
Sore: Appears to be smaller. The two little ones are almost gone. And the scab on the larger one is much smaller, although there is still a bit of inflammation.

Mr. Mosley Goes to Clovis

Well my family is off to Turkey and I am off to Clovis! Today my Mama and my Papa loaded up all of my prize possessions, my Frisbee, my Blueblood bed, my food, and my medications, into my Mama's friend's car.  I will refer to her as FauxMama for the next few weeks as she will be caring for me! I have known FauxMama for several years, and for the most part I like her.  She doesn't let me get away with things, so she's not that much fun, but otherwise she talks to me, loves on me, and plays with me, so I guess she is okay! She also has Macy, a friend of mine. A little black pug, Macy isn't really that much fun either because she doesn't really play but she is a nice companion and she will have my back in a brawl!

The car ride was a little long to Clovis,  and Macy stole my bed in the backseat.  I was a little unsure about our adventure and couldn't really get comfortable. I tried the backseat for awhile and then thought the front seat may be better.  Let's just say BMW 323's are not made for 80lb labs!

Plus I have this sore on my leg, and it itches, so I want to lick it!! But this silly BiteNot collar kept getting in my way!

We finally arrived in Clovis, at FauxMama's house!!! And her house was HOT!! Do you know how hot it gets in Clovis in the summer?? HOLY Frisbees it was HOT!! It was 100 degrees!! Thank goodness for air conditioners!! While the house was cooling down I inspected the place I will call home for the next few weeks! I have been here before, but I am not sure what type of changes have taken place since I was last here. It appears that there are some new bushes in the backyard.  I marked them, MINE!

After dinner we retired for the evening. As you can tell Macy and I were beat!! I am not really sure where FauxMama thought she was sleeping but, clearly it wasn't with us!! So far I like Clovis!!
