You is probably wondering why I has taked so long to tell you this
See when David said we was going on the dog walk on Saturday I naturally thinks that means I is going to give a speech and then walks around shakes hands with all the dogs!
I even wroted me a great speech. “Hello girl dogs, ladies and the rest of you who are all poopis heads cause you is not girls or ladies. I is Shelby, but you probably already knows that. We is here today to helps out them poor dogs who don't gots good homes and enough good foods to eat.”
You can tell that were going to be a great speech.
That is me up there practicing.
I figures all them dogs would be sitting up there and they'd be cheering for me like it were a football game!
That's not what it were at all!
Nope.
It were a race!!
We all know that people, especially old people and especially boy people am not as smart as you and especially me!
People thinks a dog walk is something silly.
What they think is that you goes out and walks your dog and then people gives you money for doing it!
I know. O os shaking my head.
Now Stephanie, who is Jack's mom, who is a girl and who tooks some of these pictures, the gooder pictures cause she AM A GIRL photo getter, she went out and started a racing team. And guess what?
She got people to give her $250!!!!
Can you believes that!
I can see her talking to people: “I am going to walk a dog so give me money!”
“No! I am a mean old guy and I don't care about dogs with no places to live and with no good foods!”
The Stephanie would say, “You have to give me money. Jack is walking with me!”
“Oh, if Jack is coming I will give you a little money.”
Then Stephanie would say, “And Shelby is part of my racing team!”
“Shelby! The Shelby!! Why then I will give you all my money!”
I'll bet that's how she did it! Two hundred and fifty dollars! I still can't believe it!
They said that the whole race got $86,000! I don't know how much that is but I bet that is not as much as $250! There can't be that much money in the whole world!
See them dogs up there. I think they were a gang and trying to get some of that money for theyselves!
I could be wrong but what if I'm not!
Look, even J-dog was pretty excited about all that money.
When I thinks about it J-Dog is always pretty excited about just about anything!
There was thousands of peoples there and even more dogs.
All them people was thinking they was going to has a nice little dog walks but us dogs all knows this were a terrible important race.
See these big dogs, they was giving each other big pep talks. I knowed they was all planning on how to beat me. Everybody knows I is a great racing dog.
And dumb old David was just walking around talking to EVERYBODY!
He is so stupid! All these dogs is saying, “David, we is going to bite your butt!” He just kept walking and smiling all stupid.
I had to stay close to him cause I had to protect him.
Them dogs knows that they can't beat me up so they was all trying to get David into a fight. They knows that if David isn't there I could lose the race on a technicality! I know its not fair but it were people who figured all this stuff out! Sides, do you know how hard it is to race when you is dragging a butt bit David along!!
Even this little guy was smart enough to figure that out! See how he is keeping his butt protected! But not old David!
Then when the race starts David says we has to take J-Dog too!
Then to makes it even worse he makes us start dead last!
AT THE VERY BACK!
They was even dogs practicing running but David makes us start at the back!
I knew I was going to haves me a lot of work dragging David AND J-Dog but I also knowed there was no way I was losing this race!
Just look at me racing. You can see I is going to win!
See all them people in front of me. Just you wait a couple minutes and then you'll see something!
LOOK!
All thems people that was in front am now behind me!!
Some of them dogs was yelling, “GO SHELBY! GO!”
They knows they couldn't win so they wanted me to win.
They is very smart!
Then you know what.
I WON!
I got there's the very firstest and all them dogs had to look at my butt as I was winning almost all the time!
Look at poor Jack! He wanted to win so bad!
I got stuff for winning!
I got a tennis ball! And a tee shirt and a new food bowl that am way too small for a big dog like me. And cookies and ICE CREAM!
All Jack got was his neckerchief. That am a pretty good prize though. I is thinking I should have got me one of them too but you know, I was with David.
And just look at me. I is so tired from racing but I is still just so beautiful!
Now I is going to show you something wonderful!
It could have been great but they took the picture while I was busy winning!
It am a picture of “The Canine Crew”! That is my racing team.
I wanted to call us “Fangs Of Black Death” but they said somebody already had that name, or something.
Anyway here am a picture of all the dogs who was racing with me.
There am Fenna and Jack and that am Teddy trying to get seen behind Jack who am a real picture stealing dog! And then they is two dogs who I was going so fast I never got to meet proper! They is people in the pictures too. I think they probably has names.
I only know Jack's mom and dad real good. If you is guessing they is the ones who looks real happy to have a good dog like Jack you is right!
So you can see that last week was very busy for a dog.
I had a birthday and I was a champion racing dog and I still had to go doctor my patients and teach J-Dog not to be so crazy!
And now I has to take care of even more dogs this weekend!
I is always so busy!
It am a good thing I is so great or I'd never get anything done!

That is a great thing you did raising money for the dogs not as lucky as you. I know you thinks David isn't smart, but let me tell you, he keeps you cool/warm and dry and feeds you lots of good food. Be thankful you have such a great human. Hugs and kisses to all. Gramma
