Living the Life of Luxury!

So after a good nights sleep at the Four Seasons, it was time to go.  I was bummed we were leaving already.  The trip was just too short, but at least I got away from that crazy little thing for a night. 

But boy was I in for a wonderful surprise.   After we got everything loaded in to the car, Mom told me we were heading to Ojai!    Now I don't know if you all remember this, but Mom and I did a girl's weekend in Ojai after Chadwick passed away.     I loved Ojai.  I got to go on long walks, I saw deer every morning and I met lots of people.   I was so excited to hear we were heading there again.  I knew I would get some good rest and relaxation there and hoped Mom would too.   This is where we stayed...


Mom and I went for at least two long walks everyday.  We would go for a long walk first thing in the morning before it got too hot and then again in the evening when it would start to cool down.   I also got a short mid-afternoon walk too! 

After our morning walk. Mom would order in room service breakfast.  I got a nice hot burger patty every morning!   They also brought me fresh bottled water every day.  While the bed they provided me was not nearly as nice as the one at the Four Seasons, I  had two cozy chairs to choose from when I wanted to take a nap.  

I got to snuggle in the bed with Mom every night without the Terrorist trying to squeeze in.   Now I know Mom felt guilty about leaving the Terrorist back in LA, but I didn't!  I enjoyed having Mom all to myself.   Well maybe I missed that little peanut just a little, but I won't ever tell her or Mom that!

I also got to meet a new friend, Casper.   Casper is a cockatoo and he was pretty cool.  He would come over and say hello to me whenever I stopped by.  He liked to show off by spreading his feathers!  He was quite the character and at first I was kind of fascinated by him, but after a couple of days, it was like, OK, hi Casper.


Then it was time to move on because there were plenty of other places to go, so many things to sniff and lots of people to say hi to!   You all know by now, how much I love attention and I had a lot of people wanting to say hi to me.  Once again, I was quite popular at the Inn. 

Mom and I stayed from Sunday to Friday!  It was so nice to get away for so many days!  When Friday came though, I didn't want to leave.  I could get used to this kind of life.   I think Mom could too.    Who wouldn't be able to relax at a place like this?

Allow me to introduce myself

My name is Abigail, although personally I prefer Princess Abby. I live, make that rule, a household in Los Angeles. I have a big backyard to play in, a couch to sleep on, and lots of love. I'm on my 3rd, yes 3rd, male companion. My first bud was Sherlock and he taught me everything. I was just six weeks old when I met him. He was five, so he knew everything. He took me under his wing and looked after me until the day he died. He died a week before his 13th birthday. That was almost 5 years ago and I still miss him. He was a special dude and for 8 years, we spent every minute of every day together. I was really lonely after I lost my best bud. So mom decided I needed another friend. In walks Brutus. Now Brutus was nothing like Sherlock. He'd had a really rough life but he didn't want to share what he knew of the world. He said his past was just too ugly and he wanted to forget it. He was just grateful to have nice place to sleep and people who loved him. He followed my mom around everywhere. He would never let her out of his sight. At first I was a little jealous, well a lot jealous. But then I realized he didn't grow up getting the kind of love and attention that I did, so I let him have the spotlight. I wound up learning a lot from him. I learned how to be grateful for the things I had. I'd grown up having it all so I didn't really appreciate anything. Brutus however was grateful for everything. I learned that the more love I give, the more I get back in return. He was a very special friend but unfortunately he got really sick and our time together was cut short. My heart ached after Brutus was gone. What was wrong with me that my two best buds had to leave me? As I sat feeling sorry for myself, mom pulled up in the Jeep and out jumped Chadwick. Now let me tell you about Chadwick. Chadwick walked in like he owned the place. He walked around like he was royalty or something. I don't know who he thought he was, but I quickly put him in his place. I established myself as the alpha dog in this household. He challenged me at first, but he finally acquiesced. Now Chadwick is a pain in my ass. I mean that literally. You see he's blind. I don't just mean he can't see well, the dog has no eyes. It's kind of freaky if you ask me. It is kind of funny though to watch him bump into things. He gets around by his sense of smell. Now let me translate that for you. It means he walks around with his snout stuck up my butt! Now you may laugh and you may think it's cute, but let me tell you, it's annoying as hell! I'll admit, he's quite a looker but boy does he bug. He gets on my nerves to no end. So the reason I tell you all this is so that you'll realize how much experience I have with love, with friendship, with life. I know I'm not getting any younger and I realize that after twelve years in this crazy world it's time I do something to give back. So I've decided my legacy will be to pass on my hound wisdom to all who are willing to listen. So please read my ramblings, my rants, my observations. You just might learn something.
