Settling In

I slept through the night and when I woke up Mariell was right next to my bed. I think she actually woke me up:( and I didn’t even really need to go. I guess I must have scared her the first night when I couldn’t hold it all the way through the lobby. I sleepwalked around the block and went back to bed.

We went to a new park after my breakfast. Played with this really sweet girl named Matty. Matty had this really cool squeaky toy that her guardian tossed and it bounced. Matty let me borrow it and I told Mariell ...

... that I want one too. I also met this beautiful girl that’s about my age and we wrestled around on the ground until I was so tired. I won the wrestling match! I won, I won, I really really won!! We left the park and headed home. I was really tired when I got home so I tried to take a nap. Mark and Mariell where on the couch helping me set up this blog and Mark even set up a photo shoot for me - I look gooood!

We went for another walk in the afternoon and I again had to wait for m&m while they were eating. They never let me have anything when they eat:( It’s not fair! [Dog Training - Avoiding Begging Behavior] We walked around and I kept on crossing back and forth in front of m&m’s feet - that’s what they get for not giving me any food.. We crossed a couple of streets and there it was… the pet store again! [BowWowMeow] Mariell bought me the same toy that Matty let me play with earlier [Bad Cuz] and Mark picked up a tennis ball the squeaks. I can’t wait to get to play with them.

We walked and walked and walked and then we were back in the same park that we went to this morning. I played until I couldn’t play anymore. I am surprised! I don’t understand old dogs. Why do they not want to play? This old guy Target kept on barking and telling me to stop when I was playing with his buddy. His buddy and I had so much fun together running around. I don’t get it. I think playing is so much fun …

I kept on playing when we got back at the house. I really liked my new toys and I realized one of my old toys could squeak too!! I had just not been biting hard enough on it. I ran around the house and played so hard I forgot that I couldn’t pee inside. Oops… I made a booboo! I was trying to be so good! it was my first accident:( I was taken outside right away and I tried all night to make it up to m&m for making them clean up after me.

I was soo tired but m&m weren't going to bed. They just weren't getting the hint! I guess I'll just have to run them ragged. I got my second wind, and started running around the apartment as fast as I could with my new squeaky toy. They finally got the hint and took me out to play. I'll show them! I wouldn't go without squeaky though, but Mark finally let me carry him down with me so I went along. We ran past this guy that I tried to talk to but oops - my mouth was full; all I could do is mumble as I ran past him. I heard the guy laughing at us! Mark got the hint though, yelled something to Mariell and just ran alongside me; I think I ran him ragged .

Well, tomorrow is another day for me to learn and play!
