We all had such a terrific walk this morning! The weather is sunny and brisk and Mamaw likes it! I still balk every now and then and lay down but Mamaw simply puts her hand under my tummy and lifts me back to my feet. The old laying down on the walk and crying isn’t going to work anymore. I heard Mamaw and Poppy talking about it and they seem to think I won’t bite so much if I have to go for these walks. I don’t know, maybe some day I will really like them.

We got a bunch of pictures today—Mamaw just can’t believe how fast I am growing. I started to get treats today for “performing upon request.” Mamaw says I am very smart and she praises me. But for now, I am in my kennel—she says I need some “quiet time”—I suppose that means no chewing or whatever…

I was tricked today! Those darned treats forced me to go out in the kitchen. I don’t like that one area by the sink. It gets noisy over there and I don’t understand it. Then there is a big brown rectangle in front of the sink—I think she calls it a rug—and it upsets me a little. But anyway, I WENT THERE and saw myself in the dishwasher door—I thought, “Wow! Very beautiful.”
