Mommis Takes Us to a Trainer

In honor of my 6th birthday, Mommis finally decided to invest in my training. So she put us in this class with a bunch of pit bulls and German shepherds and a Doberman.

I was scared out of my mind, and tried to look in the other direction for as long as I could. I’m telling you, it was ghetto.

The trainer is Austrian, and she can wrestle down any dog, too. I saw immediately there was nothing to do but obey, so I did.

I think this was our last time. I hope so. There were other things I would rather be doing than sitting, staying, and heeling.

 

The one part I really like: DOWN. I would do that without a trainer.

Am i Overweight?

I feel fine, and I can’t tell whether this expanse of me is just fur, or middle aged spread!

I Devoured Evil Plans by Hugh McLeod

It tasted sort of like Brian Solis’s first book.

I Can’t Hang Out With Mommis

That baby brother, Sammy, has usurped the bed and all my time with Mommis. He just gins up so much activity that I’ve decided to sleep through his puppyhood and just play with him about once a day until he grows up and learns the rules.

Meantime, he gets a lot of training treats, and I always get whatever he gets, so I’m getting a lot of them, too. Mommis told me today that she thinks I might be getting fat. I’m not, though. I’m just furry cuz it’s winter.

I Got a Little Brother for New Year’s!

These are the first pictures of my baby brother, Sanjiv. He’s named after Sam and Jiva, mom’s Ayurveda friends in India. We will probably call him Sammy, because that’s what he comes to, but he needs a better big name, so it’s going to be Sanjiv.

He’s 11 months old and weighs 31, and we had to drive a long way to a Petco in Gilbert to get him. He’s kind of a wild man, and he came on too strong when we first met, but that’s because I was still depressed. Then I began to like him, and I told Mommis it was okay to bring him home.

When he got to our house, he ran out in the back yard and started tearing around. I ran after him and played with him until he wore me out, and then Mommis gave us celebration bones.

I showed him how to chew on a real bone.

Then Mommis gave us dinner, and he tried to eat mine. I was polite about it, but Mommis wouldn’t let him.

He found Mommis’ bed really fast, and she didn’t throw him off, so I guess he will be allowed like everybody else.

He has one up ear and one down ear.

He says he’a a German shepherd, but he’s too little for one. He has someone else in him that was

little. I can’t wait until we go to the park and I show him that because I’m a certified Canine Good Citizen I can be off my leash and he can’t!

Happy New Year! I’m not depressed anymore. I know Paunnie is happy looking down on us, and wants me and Mommis to be happy, too.

Coming Out of my Depression

I haven’t felt like writing for a while because I was depressed after Paunnie died. But Tuckler has been coming over every day, and Mommis has been brushing me and talking to me a lot, and I am feeling more like my puppyself. In fact, Mommis went to the gym yesterday and me and Tuckler got into a fight over a box of #10 envelopes. Not the envelopes, which we left in a pile on the floor, but the box. We had a tug of war with it. I think I won. Then I left Tuckler around the evidence so he’d get in trouble and not me.

Mommis wasn’t very mad. I thought the box was the good part, but Mommis likes the envelopes better.
