Weekend with the New Pup

[Lynda Kamrath]

OMD!  What a Saturday we have had with the new puppy.  He is so energetic.  This morning when we put him outside, he started digging under a tree on the deck.  He took out all the bricks and dug a big hole (looking for a gopher?).  He runs in front of the leaf blower catching acorns before they can hit the ground.  It doesn't seem to bother him at all.  He jumps into his water bowl just to splash the water all over the place.  We took him to Santa Cruz with us today and the car is puppy proofed but he crawled under the blocker and tore up the arm rest in the back seat.  He was sitting in the back seat looking very happy when we got back to the car.  He can grab things so quickly (shoes from the closet, socks from the hamper, treats from the pantry) and then he is gone.  He got the remote from the bookcase today and we were just able to save it.  We took him to two dog parks this week and he was absolutely in heaven with all the bigger dogs.  Nothing bothers him.  He loves to wrestle with other dogs.  This is definitely not a shy dog!

[Lindsey, Lee, Whopper and Simba]

Lynda - It is so great to read these stories about Harpo. He sounds like a lot of fun but definitely more of a handful compared to Simba. That will probably reverse at some point though! I am looking forward to hearing more stories and comparing their stats this week!

[Allyson, Peri & Taquito]

He sounds soooo cute and full of puppy energy. I find myself wondering if Peri is sick these days - she's not, she has just calmed down so much in the past 18 months, it is baffling to me.
Have fun!
