I forgot how tiring it was to have a puppy… after all.. it’s been 11 years since I have had one.. gah! All the little things that you forget about when you have older dogs around.. but puppies.. they do lots of little things.. like…
bring you your shoes….
hide your shoes because you have already scolded them for bringing them to you…
bringing you your socks…
and your underwear….
licking your toes..
nipping your chin.. or nose when you think you are getting puppy kisses
pouting… because you have scolded about the nipping
the fascination with the littlest stick..
the wonder of finding a stick.. with leaves attached!!!
loving the big huge waterbowl on the deck… (ummm… it’s a puppy pool silly pup!)
splashing in the puppy pool…
sticking your face underwater in the puppy pool
going in the big pool with pawrents.. and swimming on their own!!
growing and inch and a half overnight… I swear he did last night!!
and so much more…
Here’s a picture of a first today… we got our first chewy compressed meat/rawhide bone. This is not your typical rawhide bone.. this is more compressed meat since he is a pup.. He loved it.. actually chewed it in the shady grass for over an hour this afternoon!! I think I’m onto something here!! lol
I would never give him it unsupervised.. cause you never know with these when they get to be small pieces.. but man.. he enjoyed himself today!! He only made a small dent.. so there is lots for tomorrow afternoon in the backyard!!
bark ‘ atcha later!
