I’ve been busy…

WOW – What an incredible couple of weeks this has been! One day last week, I got to help Momma Donna play receptionist all day. I was great at it. And all sorts of new people came in the front door of Second Chance just to see me!! Mom said they were there for other reasons, but I just know they heard I was the greeter that day and wanted to come by and say hi to ME! Here’s a picture of me working really hard.

Then, because I was such a big help (and a very good boy) the moms got me a very special treat. Have you ever had a Frosty Paws Peanut Butter Cup? They’re A-MAZ-ING!

Then on Wednesday night, I had Puppy Kindergarten. I am doing so good at school. I can sit, play, come when Mom calls, and I know my name!! Uncle Mark (he’s a certified dog trainer at Second Chance) told my Mom about this thing called a “Gentle Leader.” I guess the moms don’t like it much when I get really hopping and they can’t keep up. They say “I pull”…I say they are just slow. But this “Gentle Leader” thing fits over my nose and helps slow me down to their speed. I hate it!!! I can’t use my mouth when I have it on…. No kisses, I can’t pick up a tennis ball. Mom says I’m a “drama queen” whatever that means. She tries to get me to kiss her when I have that thing on – and all I’ll do is stick out my tongue and nose bump her. I guess it’s working though since we walk side by side now (let’s just not tell her though – ok?).

** Watson’s Momma Donna here – His Gentle Leader is the correct size and fits properly. He can too open his mouth – in fact, if he thinks you’re not looking he’ll carry the tennis ball, then drop it in dramatic fashion.**
