The Adventures of Boomer on Friday—Rocky/Chaco Man the Rottweiler

Posted on January 30, 2015 by Dayphoto

My oldest sister came over with my oldest nephew, Rocky Chaco Man the Rottweiler, for him and me to have some fun time together.

Shannon and Jason have lots of dogs—they are all hunting dogs, hounds and a lab! But Rocky doesn’t go hunting he guards their place. I don’t go hunting…I pretend guard the farm…so Mom and Shannon thought it would be nice if Rocky and I could have a play date on the farm.

A long (all the way around the farm—then back over the Back Forty, then to the Upper End then down by the alfalfa field) walk.

We had a great time…Rocky marked so many bushes that by the time we got to Back Forty, where the coyotes live, he was just lifting his leg for show– nothing else. I did much better, because after all I live here and I know I have to SAVE UP for the Back Forty so I can let those coyotes KNOW dogs live on the farm!!!

It must have been 300* out there, by the time we got back to the house Rock was foaming at the mouth. Black fur, no water to splash in along the way and not a cloud in sight wears a dog out.

When we got home Mom gave each of us a HUGE dish of water. Rocky slurped his down and then wanted to get in his Mom’s car and go home.

So they did. Shannon loaded Rocky up and drove away. I saw Rocky looking out the back window…he hollered at me that he had a great time and wanted to do it again!

I hollered back! “ANYTIME, Rocky! ANYTIME!”

That wasn’t a play date, that was a work day. You guys did a good job letting the coyotes know they aren’t welcome there! But doing good work can be fun too!

My Dear Boomer, …Er, I know You. If had spoken only of Rocky or Chaco Man, or are they the same? Let me tell You am plenty confused. But that does not matter. Am rambling. The main thing is that You are Really a Good Host. And a Good writer too! (Psst: Is Mommy helping You in this? :)) Glad You shared all that. Love.

  Rocky’s full name is Rocky Chaco Man; he is the rottweiler! Everyone else at his house is some sort of a hound, Rocky Chaco Man is the guard dog at their corner of the world.

What a great adventure for Rocky. Maybe next time he’ll remember to save up for the whole walk to be covered. You’re a great teacher, B.

Love and licks,

  Mom said she really should have, but she didn’t think it was going to be so hot, or that the underground stream was still frozen. Good thinking, Far Side!
