Tuesdays With Murphy: In the Doghouse

I hope I haven’t given the impression that just because I live in the Wonderful World of Whiteway, it’s all fun and games out here. I can’t leave my humans alone for 5 minutes without them coming up with some new special project that, of course, I have to supervise. Take The Berry (a.k.a. Miss Kijiji), whose dalliance with online bargain shopping led us to one of our more recent work days – setting up the dog house.

When Jerry, Joe and Alf backed in the trailer, I knew it was ‘go’ time – these men can’t be expected to supervise themselves! Of course, the humans are calling this 6X6 from Mount Pearl a ‘shed,’ but I know what it really is …. four small walls, small roof, set outside in viewing distance from the house – that’s a doghouse if I ever saw one. Maybe it’s a bit bigger than the standard, but I’ve already seen Jerry ‘in the doghouse’ more than once. But not to worry, gentlemen – if your time in the doghouse starts becoming more literal than figurative, you’ll know I’ll be right along beside you to keep you company!

  1. Murphy, I think this is way more than a doghouse…more like your own little cottage!!!You have just to make sure your humans decorate it nice on the inside and come up with a name for it..how about the “Dogberry”? It really is a beauty and just think…on days when you really need some time alone or just a little break from your “humans” you have your own place to escape too! Enjoy!!You deserve your own first class cottage and looks like your humans recognized that!They really are pretty great, aren’t they!! Good for them & good for you!!!!

    1. That is a great idea, Maureen! Unfortunately Jerry and The Berry think it’s a great place for storage, which is how it’s being used now – how rude! I agree that a naming ceremony for it is in order – or how about renaming one of the real cottages?? The Dogberry is great, but let’s keep it simple – how about ‘The Golden’? Or better yet, ‘The Murphy’?

      Thanks for your comments as always.
      Murphy
