There's a Swamp Monster on the Kitchen Table!

Tanner is Sad to See this Fella Leave

Look who's on my kitchen table. I've been asking my mom if I could have that gator toy for months. She kept saying "No, Tanner. He's a prize."

I told her I am worthy. Today I heard her say he's leaving us next week. She got him out and took his picture; she even offered him up at All Things Dog Blog to her readers.

I'm so sad. Tomorrow I'm going to the lake to see if I can find me a real gator.

"Tanner; come Tanner",  mom cried.

As I bolted across the yard I saw mom with a new gator toy in her hand. She told me I get to keep this one. It's from Petstages, Oliver's favorite baby toy company. It makes cool noise.

Watch for more about my new gator toy at All Things Dog Blog. Mom will be giving some away when she does her posts on gator safety this summer. I get to help with the research. Cowabunga!
