Many of y’all have seen me on my perch over the years. It’s where I snooze, stare out of the front door and otherwise lounge around.


But lately, I’ve not wanted to go down the steps from my little perch. And I’ve got proof. Turn up the sound. I’ve got a few things to say about that.

About The Scottie Chronicles
Winston welcomes you to The Scottie Chronicles - a blog that began in 2009 as a voice for Stuart, a more than memorable black, brindle and white Scottish Terrier who captured hearts around the world. Stuart passed suddenly in December 2015 from cardiac hemangiosarcoma, a nasty cancer that took him far too early. If you love Scotties, please follow along. Arroooo!
You tell’m! BOL
Lily & Edward
I try to tell ’em, but they don’t listen!
Stu, are you going to run for President? It seems as though you’re practicing your speeches and your landing is your soap box.
How did it sound?
Promising a bone in every dish is working. You might go tor the squirrel vote by promising to make one your running mate. It’s the only job that a squirrel can do well.
Ah! A bone in every dish. And treats to boot.
Are you afraid of another tummy boo boo?
Maybe that’s it…I dunno.
Stuart does the landing have a view? Can you look out the front door from there?
Thanks for being a friend
Sweet William The Scot
Yep! Love me some view.
Bet yer worryin’ about havin’ ta get more a them baths, if ya’ get a rub burn on yer tum? Maybe the Peeps will build ya’ some kind a ramp fur the stairs!! Or maybe They’ll just carry ya’ down-that’s what I expect my peeps ta do-Woot!!
They are quite the good elevators I must say.
Sidney feels your pain. He refuses yo go up and own the stairs by Auntie Michele. He doesn’t like the elevator either. What’s a mother to do????
I don’t know. It’s perplexing to my peeps!
Oh Stu…you look like your worried something might hurt if you go down the steps…We hope you’re OK!
-Ruby and Otto
It does look like that doesn’t it? I haven’t a clue. I feel fine, though!
Stuart you are so funny. Guinness, 11, does this pretty much the same. Goes to the landing on his own but stops and paws the top step looking up at the hooman. She can’t carry him down so it is a sit down elevator. He holds his left paw on her left leg for balance. Just the way life proceeds with a Scottie that knows what he wants!
That’s what I do. Get down on my chest and carefully think about going to the top step, but change my mind!
Well, you told HER! Andy and I (Duffy) talked along with you while Mom watched the video. We understood what you said. If you want to sit and look out, then so be it. Elsa just thinks you are cute no matter what. For a smarty-pants Schnauzer, she goes all googly goo over you!
I don’t think Sniglet would mind if Elsa wants me as her stud muffin.
?????
Don’t know what to make of it, Stuart. You really had a lot to say today! Have you had your eyes checked? It could be a depth perception thing – you know the step is really there, but your eyes are playing tricks on you and you’re afraid to take a chance. And, heck, we don’t blame you!
McDuff & Mom
I’m thinking about my eyes. Oh boy. Getting older ain’t for sissies is it?
LOL! I speak dog and I hear loud and clear “pick me up and carry me down the stairs! I will let you know when I want you to carry me back up the stairs! ” 😀
LOL…that’s me!
I feels ya, ya deserves to be carried up and down. It are your terrierist right.
Me too! ArOOOO!
Oh squeals! That stubbornness sounds familiar – oh Houdini where art thou? Snorts with piggy laughter. XOXO – Bacon
You go Stu – insist on a telly and an armchair up there!
Ahi !! arthritis in the shoulder or legs sweet Stuart ? those steps look taller than your chubby legs…
They are. Indeed.
