Waldo Chooses His Running Mate and Cabinet
I think Waldo might be getting a little ahead of the presidential debates. He has chosen his Vice President and didn't even tell me.
Here is his cabinet:
Waldo, I have to tell you that I am disappointed. I thought for sure you would pick Miss Buttons to be your Vice President.

Contest Story #1
This is Crumpy McBride. She is a Yorkshire Terrier. She is owned by Sherry McBride of Roanoke, VA. She may not be a puppy but she is as small as some. She has this to say,
I know Waldo personally. I knew him when he was just a teeny weeny baby. He has always been spoiled rotten. Of course, i am pretty rotten too. I visit him sometimes at his home with his mom. On some things, Waldo and I work together. For instance, one night, mom and Waldo's mom came home. They had been out shopping and eating. (We know they cannot pass a good restaurant). Anyway, they came home with dog cookies. Excuse me, but as everyone knows, Waldo is a cheeseburger fanatic. Well, I am just as bad as he is. So both he and I barked until our moms got back in the car and went to McDonalds. We went with them to make sure they bought enough for everyone. Of course, our moms abuse us by dressing us up in all kinds of sweaters and outfits, but I have to wear stupid barrettes. Gee, Waldo has it so easy. Well, I just wanted to stop by his blog and tell a little story about Waldo and me.

MISS BUTTONS HERE, WALDO, PEOPLE ARE NOT LITTERMATES. THEY ARE BROTHER AND SISTER. AND YOU SHOULD NOT SAY HE IS A LOT OLDER THAN HER. THAT'S NOT NICE.
JUSTICE HERE, WHY DO PEOPLE WONDER WHY THEY ARE BROTHER AND SISTER. I HAVE HEARD PEOPLE SAY THEY LOOK LIKE EACH OTHER. THEY BOTH LOVE BOSTON LEGAL. THEY BOTH LOVE TO DRIVE FAST. THEY BOTH....

Waldo's Puppy Contest
In honor of Waldo's impending fatherhood, I thought we could get him in the "daddy mood" by having a Puppy picture and story contest. The Country Groomer will sponsor the contest by donating a Premier leash and collar for both the Cutest puppy picture and the Best puppy story.
For the Cutest Puppy picture, please email the pictures to cindy@ckcsnotes.net and I will post them on the blog. They don't have to be bulldog puppies, any cute puppy pictures will be accepted. You can then gather support for your picture by having your friends post a comment to "vote" for it.
For the Best puppy story, if you have a blog, post your story there and leave a link in the comments to this post and I will post a link to the story. Or if you don't have a blog, you can send the story to me at cindy@ckcsnotes.net, and I will post it here. Again, your friends can vote for it by leaving a comment here on it's post. I will find them and tally them all.
Since Waldo's puppies are due on Valentines day, I think we will end the contest on the January 31st and continue to take votes until February 2nd. Then I will announce the winners the week of February 8th.

Waldo: The Great Cheeseburger Question
WALDO HERE FOLKS.
THE GANG AND I ARE REALLY GETTING WORRIED OVER MOM. I AM A LITTLE MAD AT HER TOO BUT MORE WORRIED.
TAKE YESTERDAY FOR EXAMPLE. WE WERE GETTING LOW ON OUR BULLDOG FOOD. THE LITTLE VARMINTS WERE GETTING LOW ALSO. THE ONLY ONE WHO IS SITTING PRETTY IS THAT SILLY BIRD WHO HAS A WHOLE BAG FULL OF NUTS, SEEDS, AND FRUIT. SO WE TOLD MOM TO GO TO THE DOG STORE AND GET SOME FOOD. SHE WAS GRUMBLING ABOUT THE WINDOW BEING BROKE IN THE CAR. WE HEARD HER TALKING TO A MAN ABOUT ORDERING A MOTOR FOR IT. WHY A PERSON ORDERS A MOTOR FOR A WINDOW DOES NOT MAKE SENSE TO US, BUT MOM DID IT.
SHE FINALLY HEAVED AND SAID SHE MAY AS WELL GO INTO LYNCHBURG AND GET THE STUFF BEFORE THE STORM HIT. NEXT THING WE SAW WAS MOM COMING OUT OF THE BEDROOM WITH A HEAVY COAT ON, GLOVES, AND A REALLY STRANGE THING ON HER HEAD. WE ALL BARKED AT HER. SHE TOLD US IT WAS A MAD BOMBER HAT AND IT WOULD KEEP HER WARM ON THE DRIVE. THE HAT IS LIKE BROWN WITH FUR TRIM, EAR FLAPS ON IT AND SNAPS UNDER HER CHIN.
OFF SHE WENT AND STAYED FOR A WHILE. WHEN SHE GOT HOME, SHE WAS STILL IN THAT SILLY OUTFIT. HER FACE LOOKED A LITTLE RED FROM THE COLD. WE ASKED HER A SIMPLE LITTLE QUESTION, "WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG MOM?" SHE WENT INTO ALL KINDS OF EXCUSES THAT SHE HAD TO GO 28 MILES EACH WAY TO THE STORES, ONE STORE DID NOT HAVE WHAT SHE NEEDED SO SHE WENT TO ANOTHER ONE. VERY QUIETLY SHE SAID SHE GRABBED A BITE TO EAT. (BUTTONS HEARD THAT) SHE SAID THEN MIKE AND TANIA'S BULLDOG, LOLA HAD 2 NEW BABIES SO SHE WENT TO SEE THEM. SHE SAID THEY WERE REALLY CUTE. THEIR BOY BULLY, JACK, IS THE DADDY. THAT MADE ETHEL A LITTLE UPSET SINCE JACK IS HER HUSBAND TOO. OH WELL, I KNOW GRACIE ONLY HAS EYES FOR ME.
AFTER MOM WENT TO BED, WE SNOOPED A LITTLE IN HER PURSE. I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE THINKING, THAT IS NOT A POLITE THING TO DO, BUT WE HAVE TO WATCH OUT FOR MOM. SURE ENOUGH THERE WERE RECEIPTS FOR DOG FOOD AND DOG TOYS AND BONES, AND CAT STUFF. THEN WE FOUND A WIERD RECEIPT, IT SAID 5 GUYS, CHEESEBURGER, FRENCH FRIES, AND A COKE ON IT. WHAT WAS THIS I ASKED. BUTTONS SAID IT WAS NONE OF OUR BUSINESS IF MOM WANTED TO EAT WITH 5 GUYS. ETHEL SAID SHE WONDERED ABOUT THAT. BUT JUSTICE AND I SAID THE SAME THING AT ONCE, "WHERE IS OUR CHEESEBURGER????".
WHEN MOM GOT UP THIS MORNING, WE ASKED HER ABOUT THE CHEESEBURGER DEAL. SHE SAID SHE TOLD US SHE GRABBED A BITE TO EAT. THEN SHE HURRIED US OUT TO POTTY. SHE RUSHED US BACK INSIDE, PUT ON THE SILLY HAT AGAIN AND TOOK OFF. NOW, SHE HAS COME HOME WITHOUT THE CAR!!!!!!!
I DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING,
WHERE IS THE CAR???
WHO ARE THE FIVE GUYS SHE IS EATING WITH???
WERE DID THAT FUNNY BOMBER HAT COME FROM????
WHAT IS A STORM??? AND WHAT IS IT GOING TO HIT???
WHY DOES A WINDOW NEED A MOTOR????
AND THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION,
WHERE ARE OUR CHEESEBURGERS??????
IF ANYONE OUT THERE HAS ANSWERS, LET US KNOW.
LOVE,
WALDO

LETTER FROM WALDO TO MISS CINDY
DEAR MISS CINDY,
I AM SO GLAD PEOPLE ARE LOOKING AT MY SITE. MOM AND I HAD A DISCUSSION ABOUT A COUPLE OF THINGS TONIGHT, YOU SEE IF WHICH ONE OF US IS RIGHT. I AM SURE YOU WILL SEE MY SIDE OF THINGS.
I THINK I NEED MY OWN PRIVATE COMPUTER. I TRIED TO EXPLAIN TO HER THAT A YOUNG MAN ON THE GO NEEDED HIS OWN MACHINE. SHE SAID "FLAT OUT NO!!"
I THINK SHE NEEDS TO LOWER HER BED SINCE IT IS HARD FOR ME TO GET UP ON IT. ( SHE BOUGHT ME STEPS BUT TOOK THEM BACK WHEN THEY WERE SO FLIMSLY.) SHE SAID IT WAS AN ANTIQUE BED AND COULD NOT BE LOWERED. THIS WAS NOT A GOOD ANSWER BECAUSE I DO NOT KNOW WHAT ANTIQUE MEANT. MISS BUTTONS SAID IT MEANS OLD. LIKE MOM.
I TOLD HER THAT MY WIFE WHO IS PREGNANT NEEDS TO VISIT MORE. GRACIE IS A NICE PRETTY WELL BEHAVED GIRL AND I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY SHE CANNOT COME FOR SOME SLEEPOVERS. MOM DID SAY GRACIE CAN COME VISIT BUT HER MOM AND DAD SAID NO SLEEPOVERS. THEY MUST BE AS SILLY AND UPTIGHT AS MOM. I WILL HAVE TO ASK GRACIE.
WALDO, ARE YOU ON THE COMPUTER AGAIN?????
YES MOM.
WHO ARE YOU WRITING TO TONIGHT???
TO MISS CINDY.
WALDO, IT IS PAST YOUR BEDTIME.
BUT MOM, YOU HAVE SAID NO TO ME SO MANY TIMES TONIGHT, I AM THINKING THAT BIRD IS YELLING AT ME. HE ALWAYS YELLS "WALDO NO". WHY CAN'T I STAY UP LATE, WE CAN SLEEP LATE TOMORROW. I JUST HAVE TO VENT TO SOMEONE.
EVERYONE ELSE IS IN BED AND ASLEEP WALDO.
THEY ARE A BUNCH OF WIMPS TOO. SISSY JUSTICE, BIG SHOTS ETHEL AND LUCY, THOSE LITTLE VARMINTS YOU CALL YORKIES ARE PROBLAY STILL AWAKE. I KNOW MISS BUTTONS IS AWAKE. AND WHY CAN'T I HAVE MY OWN COMPUTER???
YOU DON'T NEED YOUR OWN COMPUTER, YOU USE MINE. YOUR PAW PRINTS ARE ALL OVER IT.
SO WHAT???? AND JUST A COUPLE OF OTHER THINGS, I WANT MY OWN TEEVEE AND MY OWN BEDROOM. SINCE I AM GETTING FAMOUS, I HEAR STARS GET THESE KINDS OF THINGS. I NEED SOME NEW CLOTHES TOO. MISS BUTTONS HAS ALL KINDS OF CLOTHES, WHEN WE MOVED, SHE HAD 3 BIG BOXES OF CLOTHES AND 3 SMALL CASES OF ACCESSORIES. AND I THINK WE NEED TO GET DONUTS TOO. MISS BUTTONS SAID SHE LOVES DONUTS.
OKAY WALDO, WE CAN GET YOU SOME NEW CLOTHES. ALL OF US ARE SUPPOSED TO BE ON DIETS, SO NO TO DONUTS.
THERE YOU GO WITH THAT WORD "NO" AGAIN.
WELL, WE ARE GOING TO BED NOW. SAY GOOD NIGHT TO CINDY.
BUT MOM, I AM NOT SLEEPY AND I WANT MY BOBO TOY. I THINK JUSTICE HAS STOLEN IT. HE LOOKS GUILTY. JUST LOOK AT HIM, MOM, SEE HOW HE IS SLEEPING SO GOOD, HE IS WORN OUT FROM STEALING STUFF.
NO, JUSTICE DID NOT STEAL IT, BUT IT IS IN THE LAUDREY. YOU CAN GET IT IN THE MORNING.
OKAY MISS CINDY, DO YOU SEE WHAT I MEAN ABOUT MOM BEING SO NARROW MINDED???
WELL, I BETTER GO,
GOOD NIGHT MISS CINDY,
LOVE,
WALDO
MOM......MOM......MOM
I AM RIGHT HERE WALDO
MOM, I LOVE YOU TOO. EVEN WHEN YOU SAY NO.
WALDO, I LOVE YOU TOO. KEEP GIVING ME THOSE SUGARS AND WE MAY GO GET SOME DONUTS.

Miss Buttons tells Dog Show stories
From Miss Buttons,
Hello Cindy, you have not had the privilege of meeting me yet in person. I am quite sure you will. And as with most people, you will find me totally adorable, intelligent, and such a diva. Mom and I have done a lot of stuff together. We have a lot of stories. I do not know where to begin, but let's go.
I am retired from the show ring now. Unfortunately, the judges are paranoid about putting up an older lady in the ring. Although, we overlook how old some of those old farts are, they do not have open minds. In my day, I was a style setter.
One of my boyfriends at the shows was the number 1 bully in the nation for about 2 years. His name was Rock My World. I called him Rock. He always shared his ice water with me. His mom and my mom really like to talk to each other and she is a neat person. Rock and I had a small disagreement one day. You see, mom and I decided it was not necessary for me to ever get pregnant. I like puppies, just as long as they are hanging on someone else. It would be impossible to clean a puppy also. That what baby wipes are for. Back to Rock, he tried to be a little too flirtatious, if you catch my drift, I tolerated it for a moment, but he had to be put into his place. So I just turned and quickly tried to bite his ear off. Of course, his mom almost fainted, mom grabbed me back. No damage was done, but he learned his lesson.
I had some fun in
I then proceeded to go get on the elevator and go to our room. Once there, I called for room service and took a bubble bath and was dry by the time the food arrived. The ribs were not too bad. I had to go outside for my last evening walk. Mom and I went to the elevator. We had to wait for it. Down the hall were 2 women with 3 afghan hounds. They yelled and asked us to hold the elevator. We did, when they got there, the owners sashayed into it and then looked at mom and said they thought it was full, well, one snarl from me and those 3 Afghans glued themselves to the back wall of the elevator. One look from mom and the 2 women glued themselves to one side of the elevator. Mom and I had plenty of room then. Coming back inside, the Afghans decided they needed to exercise more so mom and I rode up alone.
Sunday morning came; we went over to the civic center and got to the bulldog section. There were people sitting around the ring. We did not know anyone, most of the time I showed in NC, so these were different competitors. I am very gracious outside of the ring and usually wear clothing. But when it is my time to show, my clothes come off and my game face goes on. I know the routines by heart. Most friends say I do not even need mom, I could show myself. The judge pointed at me to win and that is when the crowd got nasty. I heard them say bad things like it was fixed and crooked. That was not true. I asked mom what happened, she said they were jealous. She said not to worry, there were benefits to having a mom her size and besides she could be just as tough cause she was born in WV, but they did not know that. So I stood proud and took my ribbons and left the ring. I did tell mom she had better grab the wiener dog. Greg, Susan, and sherry were at the chessie ring, so they missed the action. We hung around and mom showed the wiener, well, she tried too; he was not behaving well and lost. Later we went back to WV but never saw those people again. If you cannot win and lose graciously, stay home.
I have some other funny stories that I will tell later. I represented the armed forces of
Love,
Miss Buttons
Note from Miss Cindy: I will post more of the pictures in separate posts a few at a time.

Waldo's Response to Famous Bulldogs
Dear Cindy,
Thank for writing. I went to the baby bulldog site. It is a big site but my goodness, he is getting old. I think he started his site in 2003. I have only just begun.
I think I better tell you a little about some of my kennel mates. Well, since I do not live in a kennel, I guess I should say housemates. Uncle Greg thought we might move out of the house but he has, I think, finally realized that mom is not putting us out. Okay, so she does not have a dining room. She needs to diet anyway and it is not necessary to cook and serve food for anyone else except us. We have not totally hogged the whole house either. We have that silly bird. And we have Shih Tzu and yorkies in here too. And then there is Edie. We let mom have a bedroom and a private bathroom. She and zipper share the office. Well, that is enough about the house. Let's get down to brass tacks. Since I am only a year and half old, I guess maybe I should let miss buttons tell a little bit about us too. Zipper might even chime in with a story or two. We will not cover everything in this letter because we do not have all night. Mom says we have to get beauty rest. She is the one that really needs it; we bullies are all so pretty or handsome.

Dear Waldo, Famous Bulldogs
Dear Waldo,
This is Miss Cindy. I was looking at some other Famous bulldog's websites today. I found one about a Bulldog named Baby. They say that he is the most famous bulldog but it looks like he must be getting kind of old. I don't think he is as cute as you.
I found out some interesting facts today about bulldogs. Did you know that there are 28 different universities that have adopted the bulldog as their mascot? Even the Marines have jumped on the bulldog wagon and have one as their mascot. I think they must have heard about how smart and tricky you are although they say it's because of their steadfast temperament (stubborn?) and fierce demeanor.
Hmmmm, you have never looked fierce to me. I think that maybe they picked it because you look strong and like to give big wet kisses.
Say hello to the gang for me,
Miss Cindy

A Sneak Peak At Waldos Store
Waldo wanted me to give you a quick peak at what is going to be in his store. I am still working on some new designs but here are the first couple.
I had to include Queen Buttons. You know how easily she gets put off by all the attention Waldo gets.
And Mr. Justice, the quiet one. I met Justice for the first time last week and I must say that you would think that he was the one who went to obedience class. Such a quiet mannerly young man he is.
Hmmmm.... I am I missing someone? Ohhhhhh, Waldo. Yes, Waldo is there too.
To check out his store, just click the button below.
