Katie and Cousin Nole come to visit




It has been a pretty wild week. These new people walk...a lot...they have been taking me about 6 miles a day. When is a guy suppose to take a nap?

I was kind of beginning to settle in when Sam and Patti got all excited about this car in the driveway. It turns out it was Katie who is pretty cool and likes to wrestle on the floor with big dogs and her dog Nole. Nole is her 13 year old Lab. She is okay but doesn't want to play and seems pretty possessive of her chewy bones...heck all I wanted to do was help her hide them...well at least that is my story.

I have been sleeping in my crate and when Sam comes down to get me in the morning I am always awake and quiet. We go out in the cool back yard. Me and Nole found some places to dig for chipmunks...judging from some of the holes back here we are not the first ones to dig here. After I take care of business I love to go dive bomb Patti and give her lots of sloppy wet kisses. I don't mess around up there too long because Sam leaves early for his walk and I don't want to get left behind.

Sam got me a new harness that keeps me from tugging on the lead. Most of the time I do very well walking on a loose lead. Most times I can walk past other dogs with out a problem...today I wanted to be social with everybody and Sam did not think that was a good idea. Gosh I hope he is trainable.

Oh yeah...I got accepted to the Winston Salem Dog Training Academy. I am going to be in a Beginner II class every Tuesday night. That will give me a chance to make some new friends.

I like the routine around the house. Usually some one is home. Sam and Patti share an office and I sleep in a rocking chair where I can keep an eye on my people. Things are busy enough around here I don't get a chance to sleep much. Gotta run...Patti is ready for her walk!!!
