Wowser bowser, we’ve done a lot of stuff already today. I’ve been outside three times to poop—Mamaw says I’m full of it.   It is warmer today and I know we’ll be going on a walk cause she told Poppy we would.

The bed in the EXILE room is made – breakfast fixed and kitchen cleaned up – newspaper read. I’m in training don’t ya know. I still want that paper and any chance I have to jump up I do. Well, she is being very patient with me trying to convince me I don’t need to do that. She says the paper is for PEOPLE—imagine that! So I’m beginning to listen sometimes but I gotta give her a good workout.

Barking has become an issue with Mamaw and Poppy. When I hear something I think I need to let them know there could be danger for us. They think they can tell if we are in danger so the “work in progress” continues. That Deb Boswell with Bark Busters just likes to keep me riled up!

Aw—the walk. It was wonderful! People everywhere telling us how much I have grown, how beautiful I am, what a friendly puppy I am—I LOVE IT ALL! Of course Mamaw likes the way I “prance” when I walk so I work really hard at impressing her over that too. It’s just work, work, work all the time. I absolutely have to take time out for naps cause I can’t keep up with her.

Oh what a wonderful drive Mamaw took me on today. I got to sit up in the front seat and look out the window. Some of the streets were still kind of yucky and I saw mountains of snow! We saw Sue just for a moment while Mamaw gave her a check for her portion of the cruise. We got back and I’m so tired I’m gonna rest till Poppy gets home.

I just missed Poppy so much today that I kissed on him five different times—Mamaw counted them. She told him that all she gets is the hard work of training me and he gets all the kisses. She is so funny. I was really a good girl tonight and they were both very proud of me. So, I guess it is bedtime—I’ll see ya tomorrow.
