Ice Puckey

January 12 /09

There's a game I like to play when I'm outside called ice puckey. Mama kicks a piece of ice towards me and I chase it, then she kicks it further and I chase it some more. Once in a while I'll kick it down the street myself and then chase after it. Whichever way we play, it's always a good time.

Sometimes the puckey goes flying really high and I run after it, sliding and jumping and twisting around in the air. We can cover a couple of city blocks like that. Besides being a way to move quickly and stay warm, it's just so much fun.

So we headed out for our late afternoon walk yesterday, except I didn't really feel like playing ice puckey. I could tell that my friend Bizou had been by on her walk and all I wanted to do was find her.

Sniff. Sniff. That's definitely a peemail from Bizou.

Mama kicked some puckeys at me but I was too distracted to keep my mind on the game. All I really wanted to do was find Bizou. I even tried to sneak across the street to look for her. I hope Mama understands that I'd much rather play ice puckey with Bizou than with her.

I shuffled the puckey around a bit just to make Mama happy. I ate some of it too.



So our game was cancelled and we just took a nice long walk instead.

These videos are kind of dark. That's because the sun started to set very quickly. The only reason you can see me in the picture above is because I'm standing under a street lamp and in the glow of a car's headlights.

I do want to show you how I play ice puckey so before the winter is out, I'll get a real good mid-day game in and we'll be sure to post a video of it.

As a matter of fact, maybe I'll get some of my friends together (including Bizou) and make ice puckey teams and get a tournament going. Who knows? Maybe we'll go professional and take our games on the road! Maybe you'll want to make an ice puckey team too and then you can play with us when we visit your city!

So if you have ice and snow where you are, start practicing.

Oh yeah, girl dogs are definitely invited to play - cats and hammies too .... absolutely!
