New Treats!



Abbie and I are doing OSCAR night. Although she would rather we do OSCAR MEYER night, she is enjoying the new treats I brought her from Costco. She knows they are in her cookie jar and has no problem showing me what she wants.
We spent the last two days doing some spring cleaning. Everything from cob webs to scouring the bathrooms, she just lays by the front door until its time for another cookie! Actually, she spent some time outside today as it was a beautiful day. I drove my friend to the airport and when I returned she had a friend with her. A large dog that I believe lives across the street. She looks like a Begian Malinois? She was sweet and friendly and Abbie seemed to enjoy playing with her.
As usual all went well. She has helped me nurse myself the last two days as well. I took a pretty hard fall at work on the cement and hurt my tailbone. She just jumps up on the bed and lays down with me as if to know I am in pain.
I have decided that my next dog child will be a Golden. Probably within the year and I would love it to be the clone of Abbie. She truly is the best ever!
Abbie and I will be together again in April. Until then, I will miss her.

Underdog........or Wunderdog

Abbie and I are spending time together again. Always enjoy my time with her. She enjoyed her day today. She spent time outside for about four hours in the sunshine. But, she was glad to see me when I got here for her dinner time.
I brought her some new treats. Costco has started selling them. They only have one percent fat and they are bite size. She scarfed them up. I attempted a new trick with her. I have never tried it with her before but since she is so smart, I thought she might know what to do.
I made her sit and stay. I placed the treat on her nose, holding her snout so she would know not to move. She let me get that far....as soon as I moved my hand, she flung her head and threw it across the room and then chased it. Well, at least she gave it a try! She needs to work on her accuracy, but she can do it, I know she can.
We plan to spend all day Saturday and Sunday together, with the exception of a little shopping for Auntie Dee.
I will post some recent pictures of her tomorrow! She is doing great!
