And one day when Mom and Dad were working on the fence lines (they call it "opening the pasture") Tonka and Abbie were very interested in what they were doing. But Abbie likes to play with all of us....
And she and Tonka were playing "follow me!!!". Abbie loves us all so much and we feel very lucky to have such a sweet little girl around here.
Mom and I keep busy much of the time... she always has me going here or there. She says that it's part of my "socialization"... fine with me, I like seeing new places and things..... today we went to some stores....
She has me doing all sorts of silly things... this is what she called "under"... course, I'm so little, I can "under" anything.... she says that when I get bigger, this might not be so easy, so I'd best enjoy doing it this way for now!!!!
This command is called "up"... goodness, put a cheese stick in front of my face and encourage me to put my front paws "up" on something.... easy!!! (I love cheese sticks!!!)
Then I wanted to show Mom that I could do it all by myself... "hey Mom, where's that cheese stick.. do you see where my front feet are???"
This odd thing is a called a "merry go round".. it was fun to watch... it moved round and round and played music...... I sat and watched it for a long time...
The next ride thing we saw... I thought it was a good place to show off my "up" word again... "Mom are you watching???"
Stairs!!! I know how to do them, except that Mom wants me to do them her way.....
which means... go up and down at her speed. Sometimes that is quickly and sometimes it's slow... in fact, so slow that we only take one step at a time.. and have to stop in between... I can do it, but it just isn't as much fun ......
My life isn't all work... I love being outside with all the dogs, especially with Livy.... we are great pals... and even though she is my size she is older than me. Mom says that Livy better enjoy this time of being the same size, because I am going to grow much bigger than she is....
We have all kinds of things that we like to do together... exploring the fence line is always fun... with the woods just beyond, we like to see "who has been there".....
Livy thinks she sees "something" on the other side!!!! So, another month sped by... I am learning and doing so many great things.... it's a happy time.....
a year with Danny Boy!!!!!
