New Teeth

So what was wrong with my old teeth anyway? Now my mouth is sore, I'm grumpy and chewing on stuff isn't as much fun as it used to be. I find that my humans' hands are still good though, much to their frustration :D

I hope this teething thing is over soon, but right now I have new front teeth and some more are poking through on the sides. I get ice cubes and frozen cloths and that helps, but yikes, I wouldn't recommend this. How many teeth do dogs get anyway?

Mr. Manners

I have been trying to convince my humans that I can be good at the table. As you can see from the picture, I can even share my chair. They're not convinced, but I'll keep working on it. For now I get to smell those wonderful smells and who's to say I can't have a small taste if it falls on the floor, right? Unfortunately, that doesn't happen very often at my house :(

At the short humans' house though, ooohh boy am I a lucky dog! I really feel the need to check it out every day. Sure, sometimes the occasional piece of lettuce is there, but mostly, it's good stuff. Much better than what I can find outside in the yard. So far my humans haven't let work on the short human training very much, but I hope they will soon. I'll keep you posted.

I Have Super Powers

I have telekinesis! When I stare at what ever I want long enough my humans bring what I want right too me. My humans must have extra sensory perception to receive my thoughts. It's fabulous! Sometimes I have to bark a little to make sure their minds are open to getting my message, but nothing is perfect.

In other news, their training is coming along nicely. I have taught them to give me treats when I touch their hand with my nose and they know it's time to play when I push my toy at them, most of the time. As for the leash thing, well I just don't like it and now they got this shorter leash which makes it much harder to smell what I want to smell. We're working on it though, and I'll keep you posted.

Bye for now,

Squirrel!

Have you seen the movie "Up"? Chipmunk! Me neither, because I don't really watch TV all that much. Birds! My humans keep saying "squirrel" and laughing hysterically. June bugs! I really don't understand. Stick!

Visiting the Dog Doctor

The other day I got to see my doctor. I didn't have an appointment, she was just outside and I went to say hi. She's really nice and so other the other ladies in the office, but I'm not sure I like going there. One the one hand, well treats, humans to gush over me and interesting smells. Sometimes there's even other dogs there too. On the other hand every time I go there I get poked and let me tell you it doesn't feel good. Sometimes it doesn't feel good for more than a day!

Potty Training

I learned early on that my humans are very trainable. Potty training only took a day or two and I only had to make a mess a couple of times to remind them. Basically, when I wake up I have to go, after I eat I have to go, after I play I have to go. You get the picture. At night when I was younger I had to go a couple of times and no way was I going to mess my playroom, so I let them know :)

Meeting My Humans

I came to meet my humans for the first time two monrhs ago. The car was not favorite thing and I let them know that the entire drive home.

So the first thing I did was to drink a whole bunch of water as you can see. It was embarassing how much I drank, but investigating is hard work and I needed refreshments before I took a good look around.
