      Hi there, this is a page about Brandy (That's me). Tache, my buddy says that I'm a Saint Bernard, I'm not sure what that is but he seems to think that it's something cool so I guess that's what I am. Everyone who meets me says that I'm adorable and they're right. I usually lay around the house and get in some much needed sleep, but every now and then I try to get into stuff that Tache says I'm not supposed to.


      We used to live by the river where I could chase the squirrels and swim in the river. I don't know why, but both of those were some of the things I wasn't supposed to do. There were other people there too, but I don't miss them because they would ignore me and not let me out when I wanted to. I miss the squirrels, but Tache says that we are much better off where we are now. Besides, we have *rabbits* here!


      The rabbits are more fun to chase because they don't run up trees like the squirrels do and there are more people around to play with me. Most of the kids here like to play with me, but most of the adults think I'm scary. I think they're nuts.


      When someone comes to the house I run up to the door and bark, waiting for them to come in and play with me. Sometimes if someone is talking to me I cock my head to the side, then I switch and tilt it the otherway. It usually makes them smile and then the pet me. All of the people who come to visit Tache and me say that I'm spoiled. What do they know? They say that I should behave like a dog, but I know that they're just trying to tease me by saying that I'm not a person like them. When I want my belly scratched I just roll over onto my back and I usually get scratched.


      A lot of times Tache takes me places in the car. We go all sorts of places in the car, the park, the store, to our friends houses, and even to Tache's mother's house. I'm not sure which I like more, going to new places or just riding in the car. Tache says that I can't go with him to some of the places he goes and that isn't fair. I go to work with him sometimes, but its boring there.


      There is a tiny dog here that I try to play with, but she isn't very friendly. When I see her I whine and beg to play, but all she does is snarl and snap at me. She worries me, that much attitude in so small a dog. It makes me wonder if someday she'll explode from trying to pack 110 lbs of meanness into a 5 lb body.


      I have lots of toys, some of them aren't ones I'm supposed to play with (don't tell Tache, but I ate the sponge again). I love Nylabones and my rope the best. I get rawhide every now and then, but Tache says that I'm not supposed to consume a 2 foot long rawhide bone in less than an hour. Thinking of food, I wonder if Tache has more grapefruit in the fridge?


      Well I guess that's about it for now, someone just walked by my door and I wanna see who it is. Bye.
