Those darned tree people are back! I don’t like to go out to potty when they are here. There is so much noise it’s scary I tell you! Today I am 8 weeks old. Mamaw says my legs are getting longer. She and Poppy took me for quite a walk today and then Poppy started some of my training exercises. They bought “puppy treats”—wasn’t sure what to think about them at first but I guess they are okay. They are trying very hard to get me to behave before we go on our trip to Michigan.

I watched the neatest commercial on TV today—well, I just couldn’t get enough of it! Everything on the screen moves so fast you can hardly keep up with it. And Mamaw is still struggling, trying to feel better. She got all cleaned up today and I thought maybe she was going to leave for a while but she didn’t. Maybe she is trying to will herself to feel better—you think?

Poppy had hoped to go to the golf course today. Time is running out on this season but the weather just doesn’t hold any promise for that! Maybe we’ll all just rest or a while…

More walking…I think I could get used to that. This morning on our walk, my leg fell down a big grate so this time I was looking out for it. The walks are to wear me out so I’m a tired “puppy” but it doesn’t always work that way. The neighbors think I am just the “cat’s meow”—well something like that anyway. When they stop to see me, I try to look really innocent and they all say how cute or precious I am.
