Oh Dog! We’re down to THREE days until Christmas! I’m so excited I might pee on the carpet! Good thing it’s Saturday, huh Jen? woo woo!
Today’s letter to Santa comes from my best bud Loup, who hails to us from Canada and he (occasionally) blogs at Life According to Loup. He’s a real riot, so I know you’re gonna love his letter to Santa. But the question is…. will Santa? *gasps* For the record Santa, publishing them does not mean I endorse them!
The one and only- Loup!!!
Dear Santa,
How ya been this year? Hope there is lots of snow up at the North Pole. We have none right now in Ottawa, Ontario since it all melted away. Just lots of rain and that’s no fun for a snow dog like me. Sigh. Could you bring me some snow from the North Pole when you come if we don’t have any by Christmas? I bet that North Pole snow is magic snow. I’m sure of it.
Hope you’re not still sore at me for that time I helped pull the sleigh. The toys only got a tiny bit wet and muddy (Okay, they got soaked) when I dragged the sleigh through that mud puddle. No harm done. Let’s put the past behind us, shall we? Forgive and forget and all that. You’re a jolly old elf, right? *Grins and teeth ping*
Unlike those naughty cats. B.f. Thorneycroft and Gordon Drummond, I’ve been a really *COUGH* good doggie all year long so I’m hoping you will bring me all the gifts I want this year. You are going to give them coal, right? *looks hopeful*
Now for my gifts, first I’d like my own hot tub mud bath. You’re welcome to join me, too, of course. I’m not selfish like those cats, Big and Gordie. *rolls eyes* Of course I may need the deluxe extra large size tub if you’re going to join me, Santa. *Winks* Guess Mrs. Claus has been baking again, hasn’t she? Getting quite the tummy there!
Speaking of baking, does Mrs. C. have any cookies for my pal Rumpy T. Drummond and I? My pal, Rumpy, just loves cookies. You remember him, right? He lives in Florida which sure is a hot place for a Malamute to live. Don’t know how he does it. Phew! I get hot just imagining it. UGH!
Hey, do you think you could get me one of those little rooms like they have at Mark’s Work Warehouse where you can make it freezing cold and windy in summer time to try on heavy coats? I’d love one of those rooms for summer time as it can get mighty hot and humid around here.
Cathy has a paddling pool for me but only my front feet fit. It’s a joke really. *rolls eyes again* I know she does try, poor girl. We don’t have an in ground pool like some of my lucky doggie friends south of the border.
And finally, for my last present, I’d like a fresh toy delivered each day since I keep losing and destroying the ones I have. Can you arrange that? I don’t need anything fancy. Cathy gets me toys at the dollar store and not at the expensive doggy boutique where the chic dog owners shop. Hey, I’m okay with it, really. *Cheap Creep….grumbles under breath*
So I hope you will have a good night for flying, Santa, and that the reindeer don’t give you grief. That Rudolph is a saucy one, isn’t he? Must be that red nose of his. Better check he’s not flying under the influence. Thought I smelled candy cane brandy on his breath last time.
So have a great Christmas yourself, Santa! Hope you get a break after working so hard on Christmas night to bring joy to everyone.
All the best for the New Year and drop by sometime. My doghouse door is always open and I’d love to see you. Just don’t touch my dog dish while I’m eating. GRRRR!
Love Loup
Oh Dog! I sure hope Santa’s in a good mood when he reads this! woo woo woo!!!
Excellent, better trot over to read Loup’s blog.
Posted by roughseasinthemed | December 22, 2012, 3:07 AMGreat letter. I hope Santa fulfills Loup’s wishes, he really deserves it ♥
Posted by Chabichou Malabar du Roupillon | December 22, 2012, 3:19 AMWonderful letter. I’m not sure about a hot mud bath though!
Posted by Bassas Blog | December 22, 2012, 3:22 AMSuch a cute letter to Santa. I’m sure it will melt his heart, and Loup will get a nice full stocking. 😀
Posted by adinparadise | December 22, 2012, 5:46 AMHee hee! I hope you get your hot “mud” tub! 🙂
Posted by Bassetmomma | December 22, 2012, 6:13 AMWhat a great letter, I don’t think you are asking for tooooo much 😉 Good luck on your list and I have to agree, cats are bad news…I live with 2 of them myself!
Posted by Emmadog | December 22, 2012, 7:04 AMBOL! Loup is so cool and funny!!! He has a really good sense of humour! I hope that Santa brings him a hot tub mud bath, a new garbage can and a fresh toy delivered!!!
Three more days for Christmas, woooo hooo!!! 🙂
Posted by eripanwkevin | December 22, 2012, 7:22 AMAnd those cookies for me! woo woo!
Posted by rumpydog | December 22, 2012, 8:46 AMWOW RUMPY Loup even remembered to ask Santa fur somethingy fur YOU. THIS was a super letter. I hope Loup gets EVERYTHINGY on the list.
Posted by Frankie Furter and Ernie | December 22, 2012, 7:56 AMCats are not bad news *eyes roll* but this was a funny letter. Resident cats do not want Loup here visiting! Oh yes and they have a pond — na, na, na na, na (too bad you can’t hear them sing that!)
Posted by katecrimmins | December 22, 2012, 8:28 AMThat’s probably pretty smart of the resident cats!
Posted by rumpydog | December 22, 2012, 8:44 AMHi Loup. It’s Cathy, your owner here. You are an imp, aren’t you? Like Rumpy said, sure hope Santa is in a good mood when he reads this. I saw the video message he sent to you and you’re on the naughty list. http://www.portablenorthpole.com/watch/gpi5KnyY6Z6WP3i3WUgBBEA/p
Why am I not surprised? Good thing you’re so handsome and charming to make up for being such a brat. Have fun out in the snow today. It’s snowing again after the big storm yesterday so that must make you happy.
Posted by Cathy Thorneycroft Graham | December 22, 2012, 8:34 AMWHAT? Loup got snow? I am SOOOOOO jealous!
Posted by rumpydog | December 22, 2012, 8:45 AMOh Loup, you are wonderful! I hope Santa will bring you a truckload of toys!!!
Posted by easyweimaraner | December 22, 2012, 8:39 AMor socks…. Loup loves socks!
Posted by rumpydog | December 22, 2012, 8:45 AMCareful, Loup. You may be pushing it! Good luck and Merry Christmas!
Love and licks,
Cupcake
Posted by Genevieve Petrillo | December 22, 2012, 11:59 AMGreat letter Loup! And I have good news for you… It just finished snowing in Keewatin, so you should get it in a day or two… Hey! That’d be Christmas Eve, I think. ~:o)=
Merry Christmas to you and Santa Paws!

Posted by Teepee12 | December 22, 2012, 2:21 PMLoup better hope that Santa’s misplaced his glasses when he’s about to read Loup’s letter. Very funny. Santa does have a sense of humor, so I’m sure he will enjoy it.
Posted by earthriderjudyberman | December 22, 2012, 7:50 PMWoo Woo. Molly’s high pawing Loup’s hopes. (she’s chewing toys – out of Christmas nervousness she promises… and feels quite up to pulling sleighs) Thanks for sharing the giggles, Rumpy!
