I can sit and lay down, and can stay pretty well. But my best trick of all is to beg for my Momma's people food. Me, Piper and Mavrick do that really well. I don't know speak yet, but Momma doesn't mind. I'm currently learning to catch treats. And ever since Momma picked me up from the SPCA we've been working on my not running away if I get out, but I just can't help myself. I like to run and smell everything!!

Momma and Ma feed us num-nums called Blue Buffalo. They call it our "fishy food." It makes our coats soft and shiny! I had to switch to "fishy food" because Mavrick has a little bit of a skin issue, and since we all get treated the same us girls had to switch too.

My favorite is Monkey. He has stretchy legs and arms. But Momma has him put up for now because Mavrick chewed a hole in his side and pulled his tail off. My other favorite is Piper! She's become one of my favorite toys. We wrestle in the middle of the living room floor. The only thing is when I "go for the jugular" her fluffy bib makes me cough. It doesn't stop me though, I just nibble on her ears and try to run away from her. She's a little clutsy sometimes so it's not hard to get away.

Mmmm...I love snacks. Any kind of snack is good. A real treat for me is when Momma gives me a piece of pizza crust. Also, don't tell anyone, but when Momma isn't looking, my other Ma lets me lick her plate clean. (But unfortunetly not very often)

Everywhere is a park for me. I love to take car rides. Momma likes to go pretty fast, but I don't mind. I stick my head out the window and let the wind blow my long ears! I like to, as Momma says, bolt when there is an open door so everyone is very careful not to let me get out without a leash.

I was dropped off at the Houston SPCA the last day of March because my owner didn't have time for me. I was chosen over a room full of other dogs and puppies the very next day because I didn't make too much noise or get scared when people were looking at me. I sat nicely at the side of my kennel and just wanted love and attention. Granted, I did pull out all the stops with my adorable "sad" eyes. She couldn't resist me. *wink* My new momma took me to see some nice people named Memaw and Papaw. They were really nice to me, and I got to have my first "Frito." Mom got a little angry about Papaw giving it to me, but I didn't mind. They were yummy! Momma and I lived in an apartment for a while by ourselves and I was put in a kennel for hours by myself. I didn't like that at all. I didn't like to be abandoned all day long, so when she would get home from work, after my excitment to see her of course, I would get back at her by pottying on the bed or the couch. Then we moved to a house with a nice big back yard for me to play in. We decided to add on to our family by getting my step ma. I also got a new step brother and sister. I was a little scared at first because they are both so big. Mavrick (we call him Bubba, or Doo) is the lazy boy of the family. They call him a Burnese Mountain Dog. And Piper (Piper Laurie)is a Saint Bernard. She is my best friend though. We didn't get along at first, but now we chase each other through the house and play all day long. I used to not be allowed out in the house when no one was home, but one day Momma and Ma accidentally forgot to put me in my kennel. They were gone for what seemed like a long time. I thought for sure I would get into trouble when they got home because all I had done was lay in my spot on the couch and sleep, but Momma told me how proud she was of me for not pottying on the furniture, and that I was a big girl now. That made me happy! No I get to stay out and play with the big dogs all day. I've only had a couple of accidents since then, but it's usually when Momma forgets that I have a little bladder and stays gone longer than normal. But I'm not lonely at all anymore. I have my brother and sister to play with and keep me company while Momma & Ma are at work.
