I start my day the way any dog does. I bark and scratch to get out of the room in the morning. I waddle down the long hallway to find my pee spot. From there I waddle around the kitchen in hopes that food will fall from the sky before Mommy wakes up so I can eat in secret. I then find my way to my living room bed where I wait patiently to hear the tinkling of kibble hitting my food bowl. I eat so quickly that I choke and then drink a gallon of water to give myself that “full” feeling. I typically sleep for the rest of the day, what else is there to do?

I don’t go outside because it’s too cold and the humans in the house think I’m too loud. I’m a lap dog, I prefer to be cuddled up and warm, walking around is for suckers. I’m house trained, but not in the way that pet owners would praise. I use wee-wee pads, and I believe they’re trying to eat me so I will never poop on one, that’s what carpet is for. I will randomly walk around the house to see what’s going on. It’s my goal to make it into Bella’s bedroom one day so I can eat all of her kibble and chew on all of her bones but a long white gate makes it impossible for me to get in there. One day someone will forget to put it down and leave the door open, then I’ll make my move.

Speaking of food - it’s my favorite past-time. There’s nothing I could possibly enjoy more in life. I’m a bit overweight but that doesn’t stop me, neither does my slipped disk. I’ll make a V-line for anything I see and I’ll bark and cry if someone is eating and won’t share with me. I can easily get into things, my nose is long enough. I’ve got my owners trained by chewing on un-eatable things so they’ll reward me with real food. I’m a trickster - yes I am. I sleep most of the day, it’s my second favorite past-time. I need to be under blankets in order to sleep though, I love being warm! I cuddle with anyone who’s willing to hold me for long periods of time. Once you pet me, you’re sucked in. I don’t let you walk away, I love the attention!
