She Who Has the Most Fun with Toys

Laura has still not come home.

She's been gone for two days now!  That is a very long time.  Laura is never gone for so long.  I don't understand what is happening.

My Mum said not to worry and that Laura would come back.  But when?  When will she be back?

No one will tell me for certain, but I heard a rumour that Laura might be sleeping with these guys now:

Laura wouldn't leave me for a pair of cats. Would she? I mean, I'm sure they are nice cats and all. And there are two of them, and I'm only one Shelby. But I am FUN! And I'm Laura's girl. Laura said I was her girl. She said I could stay with her always.

But those cats look like they might be fun too.  I wouldn't mind having a nice pair of cats to play with myself.

Hey!  Do you think Laura might be gone so long because she has gone to fetch those cats to bring them home for me?  Laura likes to give me new toys to play with!  I made sure she would by always appreciating the toys she gives me.  Like this giraffe:

That giraffe was the first toy my friend Laura ever gave to me.  It was pretty funny looking for a giraffe.  But I loved it because Laura gave it to me, and I played with it right away.  I played and played with that giraffe.  I even made it fly:


Sadly, the giraffe got worn out and cannot be played with anymore.  But I bet a nice pair of cats would be fun to play with.  I bet I could make those cats fly!

Laura, hurry home soon!

Oh Laura, Where Art Thou?

Laura did not come home last night.

I waited and I waited but she did not come.

I knew something was up when she started packing all of those bags.  I knew I should not have let her go.

I lay in front of the door so she could not leave.

I lay on top of her shoes so she could not put them on.

But Laura made me move and she left anyway. :(

Why?

I've been a good girl.

I always help Laura to do her yoga.

I take her outside to play every day.

And when she doesn't want to go outside (people are funny like that sometimes) I play with her in the house.

I always try to make Laura laugh.  And I'm good at it too!

I am good company.

So why would Laura leave me?

Please come back to me Laura.  I miss you.

Hello!

Hi, hi, hi, hello, hi!

Hello friends!  I'm Shelby Ann!  Welcome to my web log!

I recently found out that anyone can have a blog.  All you need to do is convince a human friend to help you with the typing.  Well, I already found myself a human friend who is very pliable.  My friend Laura is putty in my paws.  And she already has experience with blogs: she already helped another dog, Princess Kendal, with her blog Confessions of a Canine Derby Widow.  So I knew I could get her to help me too.  All I had to do was look at Laura, and Foster Failure Files was born!

Foster Failure Files is going to be filled with fun stories about all my adventures.  I'm going to be blogging about lots of good things like friends, flying giraffes and, of course, foster failures (including my plans to turn my family into two-time failures).  I hope you will come back and play with me lots!

See you soon!
