When Amy went to Disney World, she brought back a lovely bright red leather Mickey Mouse collar for Duffy to grow into. I decided it might be fun to take pictures of him as he grows into the collar.
So today, I draped it around his neck and he thought it was a great fun game. He jumped and twirled and would not stay still so I could get a good shot of him!
First this:
Then this and this and this:
Finally, Teddy decided he might be able to help out:
Hurry, I'm holding him down -- take the X!!)X##!! picture!!
Then, all of a sudden I remembered that Duffy has already learned some helpful commands. Like: SIT and STAY. So, I started over! Told him to sit and stay and put the collar around his neck. And this is the result!
What do you think of my handsome guy? Looks like he's going to do a little bit more growing. To be continued....
It looks like this is my new home. I was whisked away from my three brothers and five sisters and my Mom, Nevaeh. I went for a long car ride (but I slept most of the way) and ended up here.
This is me on my first day at my new home. I'm 7 weeks old here:
Since I really like my new home, I do try to behave most of the time. For instance, I didn't cry at all the first night home. I'm pretty nice to my new siblings, but its sometimes hard to tell if they feel like playing or not.
I've been eating really well and in three weeks I doubled my weight! When I moved in I weighed 10 lbs and now I'm close to 20.
What I really love is my new yard. I can run around and play and dig and chase leaves. Its pretty great. I've learned that this is the place to pee and poo. I only have accidents inside once in awhile.
Amy taught me some tricks - I know how to sit and lie down. I'm learning to walk nicely on a leash, already I know that when the person on the leash stops walking, I should sit down and wait. I'm very good at doing that. Its hard not to pull on the leash because the other dog, Teddy, is allowed to. That doesn't seem really fair. I bite Teddy every chance I get.
I'm really trying to learn not to chew people's hands and clothes. The hardest thing is not to go after the socks. I love 'em. They smell great!
The other thing I'm working on is learning to ring the bells when I want to go outside. When they first hung up the bells and showed me, it was pretty scary - they're very loud. But I'm not afraid of them anymore and today I actually rang them once and got let out. It might have been accidentally, I won't say one way or another.
What fun I had this morning, tormenting William my cat brother. He thinks he is the boss, but just wait.
