Well we were back to our routine
yesterday. No poop rebellion. For the time
being.
It poured rain last night so we had another
game of Find the Bunny. I hate to admit
it – but Paxton has Frodo and me beat.
Paws down. When he is told to
stay while our human hides the bunny, he is like a STATUE. Frodo and I…wellllllll….more than once we
had to go back to the starting point because we cheated and broke our
stays. So much for the two dogs who have
had $4 million in obedience lessons…
Our human continues to amaze me with some
of things she says. I thought I should share a few more that we regularly hear…
·
“Don’t pee on ___________.” The blank can be completed with a number of
responses ranging from “his head”, to the “neighbor’s garbage can”, to “the car”
or to “that newly planted flower”. Come
on humans. Don’t bother saying
this. When nature calls, ya gotta
go. And if my brother is foolish enough
to walk under my leg when I am peeing – that’s HIS problem!
·
“Move along – it’s a work day.”
This is said on our walk early in the
morning. Seriously. I
know what day it is. We canines know the
days and we know when you have to go to work.
We have a calendar. It has PONs
on it. You don’t need to remind us – and
think that we will somehow behave differently because YOU have to go to
work. If we’re not moving along fast
enough – you should have gotten up earlier.
And we will be happy to arrange that for you.
·
“Everybody sit.” This is said when we are in
front of the biscuit jar and you have indicated “TREATS”. You don’t have to include the word
“everybody”. It’s not like there are 36
of us. We KNOW we all should sit. And
it’s not like one of us would ever be allowed to stand. Or jump up. Or dance. While the other two are sitting. Keep it
short and simple. Just “sit”. We want more efficiency in treat
distribution.
I must say, sometimes living with you humans is just
exhausting. But we do love you….despite
the things you say.
