Mack Goes to Home Depot

Hu-mom decided the front door needed to be refreshed (painted).  She said she took a real look at the front door and was horrified.  It looked fine to me. So today on the way home from work, we stopped at  Home Depot to get supplies.  

I am a little skittish so I was able to stay in the car.    NOTE:  The windows were left open, the temp outside was 69 degrees and hu-mom and Mack were only gone 10 minutes.  Maybe next time I'll venture a quick trip into Home Depot, too!  Hu-mom said it's like PetsMart only no dog stuff and no yummies at the check out.  Sounds a little boring to me. Mack did tell me he did get a few head pats! But the bottom wires of the shopping cart were farther apart than he's used to, meaning his little toes were hanging through and he had to stay in the shopping cart, no wandering around. Hu-mom didn't let him wander, you know what boy dogs like to do.....I would never do that!



I volunteered to help hu-mom paint the front door.  It'll be my first time helping with painting, so I'll let you know if I'll volunteer again!  She said my job will be to keep the kitties from going outside while the door dries.

We're enjoying springtime weather and flora here in Northern Virginia.  Hope everyone's spring has sprung.

Love,
Minnie : )

How come you didn't get to go into Home Depot Minnie?! You could have helped pick out the perfect door color!!
Mack does look cute and content in that shopping cart!

ANY pawject that involves a BRUSH is grrrrreat. I helped my mom varnish the dining room floor... ONCE.

Hint: Do NOT let your tail furs get in the Wet Stuffs. Or your mom will SCREAM like a Squirrel.

We LOVE to go in the hardware stores! It's okay, Minnie, you should try it. You will get LOTS of attention, just like Mack said :) Mom & Dad learned the hard way that it's best to keep a blankie or something in the car for just such occasions like the big holes in the shopping carts.

I love the photo! We take Gus into Home Depot and Lowe's when we have to stop in, but he is not as comfortable in the cart as Mack looks!

P.S. I think we should talk Doggie T-Shirts into sending you a Pugs not Drugs shirt...Mack NEEDS one!!

That sounds like a fun trip for Mack. I'm going to have to go with my dad when he gets supplies to finish the garage this fall.
Love,

Man, we never get to go to stores like that. We would never stay in the cart, though. Isabelle might do alright.

Pugapalooza is May 21 from 1-4. Here's a website with more info. http://www.ballentinecivicleague.com/Pugapalooza%21.php
The address is 2717 Tait Terrace, Norfolk.

If that's too far, our new rescue will be at the Furry Friends event in Midlothian on May 22. http://www.pugsugottasave.org/events.html
We may not make that event. Pugapalooza wears mom out.

Sometimes it's just nice to have a little quiet time in the car.... It's good to just do what you want... How great that you get to guard the door so the kitties don't get out.

pawhugs, Max

Home Depot? Nope. Not for us. All that banging, and hammering, and screwing, and sawing, nope, we'll stay in the car. Until someone makes a hard hat for a dog we're not going near any projects.

Ooh - how lucky that doggies get to go in a human store - even just to ride in teh trolley! Here, we're only allowed in pet shops!

(We did have a real giggle at the image of Mack's little toes hanging out of the trolley!)

Ours doesn't let doggies inside though. Jerks.

Ahhh - so glad I can comment now. :) I love this photo of Mack in the cart. We have almost the exact same photo of Gus in the cart at Home Depot!

He looks like a much more calm customer than Gus is. :)
