Welcome to

Skinner Blvd.

    Hello, Thank you for taking a ride down Skinner Blvd.  I am General Skinner E. Lee Mathews. I am a baby Basset Hound.  I was born on July 3, 2000.  I was named in memory of  Mommy's Papaw, Leon "Skinner" Pardue.   I live in Lancaster,  South Carolina with my parents and brother, Harley Bleu.  He's 7 and 115 pounds.  Harley is Blue tick/ Bull Mastiff mix.   As a rule, I stay out of Harley Bleu's way.  I bounce too much for him.  I love to play. Maybe, only sometimes, I can be a pain in the butt and drive everyone crazy.   I am a big boy now.  As of March 2, 2002, I have a new baby brother, Junebug Cornelius Ezzell Mathews.  He was born January 19, 2002. He's a basset hound, too!!

    My parents are bikers. Harley Bleu and I are cool biker pups. They ride an '89 Electra Glide.  Daddy loves to fish and Mommy loves to do about everything else.  I am Mommy's assistant.  As you can see, I answer the phone and take messages for her.  The only problem is that she can't read my paw writing.

    Mommy loves to dress us up in whatever she makes or finds.  There isn't any escape from Mommy's talents.  If she thinks about it long enough, she'll figure out a way to do it.  Plus, she knows how to crochet, quilt, sew, and do about anything crafty that she finds or thinks up herself. Nothing is safe from being decorated by my Mommy, Cassie. I have more clothes and hats than some adults. If there's a holiday, I have a suit for it.  She sells suits for other babies, too. I have my own Business, SKINNERWEAR.  It's custom Clothes for Pets.

    Mommy has Fibromyalgia, Asthma, and Melludary Sponge kidney disease but that doesn't stop her. She gets alot of migraines and I try to be still and quiet, but it is very hard for me. She  enjoys taking my picture and making my web pages.  She's a camera nut.  I guess that I will survive, Harley Bleu did.  No, I am not spoiled rotten.  Neither is Harley Bleu or Mommy Cassie.  She's a lobbyist.  She fights for biker rights, but her heart belongs to Morris Island Lighthouse in Charleston.

    I love apples, carrots, fruit loops, and popcorn.  I love to ride in Mommy's Explorer.  Mommy says that I am being stubborn.  I naw up everything.  Nothing is safe when I am around.  I am the clean up Patrol.  Clean it up or I get to naw it up.  I love to play.  My best buddies are Yankee, Smoky, Tyler, Alex, and Rocky.

 Cruise around my Blvd. and visit often. I am always up to something.
