As a growing puppy, I learn new things every day. I'd like to share some of them with you.
1. When Mommy comes home from work, it is important not to smell her feet. The aroma does not tickle my sniffer as I had hoped and Mommy laughs when I run away.
2. When Mommy disappears into the shower, it is important to check on her every few minutes to make sure she's still hiding behind that shower curtain thing. I wouldn't want to lose track of her.
3. Snow is slippery. If I run too fast, my legs fly out from under me and I land square on my little nub.
4. When Mommy goes swimming in the bathtub, large quantities of soft bubble things appear which are fun to lick and sniff. If I hold my nose under water, I can make bubbles myself. Exhale only. Inhaling is bad.
5. If I kill a toy, like my hedgehog (which I maimed and gutted earlier this week), Mommy buries it in the tall skinny can in the kitchen. It makes her upset when I whine, sulk and pout at the garbage can for several hours at a time...even when she gives me a new toy.
6. Socks and other laundry are not snack items!
7. Eating paper causes constipation which makes me grunt when I doo doo...
8. It is a bad idea to wake Mommy in the middle of the night when you are trying to steal her pillow.
9. Mommy's pillow is also not the place under which to hide bones.
10. If I am good girl while Mommy is gone, and pretend to be protecting the house (I say pretend, because I'm a chicken!), Mommy gives me many treats!
What are some of the things you all have learned???
Nubbily Wiggles,

Ha ha ha ha! You are so funny!
I learned that if the ball goes on the slippery tile, I can just lie down on the carpet and mom will get up and get it for me!
I have learned that the more pitiful I look - the more treats I get :-)

I am still learning #6. I am having a hard time with that one.
I learned that if you kids don't want to eat something just hang out long enough and they will give it to you.
Also eating crayons (while yummy) can make your mommy freak out when your poop comes out red.
And that if you go in the bathroom while your boy is taking a bubble bath, he will feed you the yummy bubbles.
4. Exhale only. Inhaling is bad.Still do that .
Me:Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride.
Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face to be pure ecstasy.
When loved ones come home, always run to greet them.
When it's in your best interest, practice obedience.
Let others know when they've invaded your territory.
Take naps and stretch before rising.
Run, romp and play daily.
Eat with gusto and enthusiasm. Stop when you've had enough.
Be loyal.
Never pretend to be something you're not.
If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.
When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by and nuzzle them gently.
Thrive on attention and let people touch you.
Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.
On warm days, stop to lie on your back on the grass.
On hot days, drink lots of water and lie under a shady tree.
When you're happy, dance around and wag your entire body.
No matter how often you're scolded, don't buy into the guilt thing and pout ...run right back and make friends.
Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.sniff-sniff
