Nicknames

Like humans, I have nicknames as well. Some are cute, some are macho, some are down right embarassing. I will tell you about my nicknames...

The most often one is Buddy--that is what my momma calls me a lot in our daily conversations. It is a comforting nickname

Another nickname is Barkley Bear--notice how that just rolls off your tongue nicely. Barkley Bear, Barkley Bear, it is just music to my ears.

Then there is Barkley Bo Dean--I guess there is a music group called the Bo Deans. So I figure that its an honor, since my momma listens to their music once in a while.

Then there is Sparkily Barkiley--That is when my momma is being silly

Barksley--That is what neighbor Bob calls me...I think he doesn't realize my real name is Barkley, and I don't want to correct him because he will call my momma Tiffany a lot too..Who knows he may be hard of hearing.

Darkley--This is what momma calls me when I'm really naughty!!

Probably the worst name out there if Fartley--there is a story to this name. I was visiting Grandma, and I farted. Needless to say it was stinky and audible....Not one of my prouder moments at her house, but at least that time I didn't poop on the floor.

Ok so a post would not be a post, if I didn't include a picture of me in it, so I will find you a few of my favorites at Grandma's house!

This is my Aunt Maggie. We are playing tug-o-war. Note, Maggie's enthusiasm.

In this next photo, I wore Maggie out playing with her. But, I'm still ready at any moment!

This is one of my favoriet cousin's K. If you notice, my ears are still down, cause I'm a puppy.

Here is my younger cousin E, she is fun to play with and look when I was a puppy, we were the same size.




I will "Bark" again soon-
