I figured I would start a thread to see who else is being tortured by puppy behavior on this beautiful Saturday Morning. I keep reading all these posts about these great behaved puppies, some perfect puppies. Some of my past posts included (because you know in our eyes each of our puppies are perfect, well behaved and gracious). Well today is definitely starting out to be not one of those rainbow and butterfly days. Surely someone else out there can help share in my misery? I'll start.....
Lets see for us, its 724 am now and I've been up chasing her for about an hour and a half now. Lucky me, today she graciously "allowed" me to sleep in until 6 am. So far we are one hour twenty four minutes into our morning and she has managed to get in to my linen closet and bring downstairs just about every single towel and blanket we own, (she has figured out how to open doors, how is that even possible)? Anyway's, she got onto our chess table (maybe she wanted to learn how to play?? I mean she's very smart and all) but then I noticed that she had successfully snuck outside two chess pieces, (I take that victory point because I managed to get her to drop those as I was chasing her), she's tormented one of the sleepy Chihuahuas who has indicated with her growling that she wants nothing more than to be allowed to sleep in a little more, she got into a pile of papers on the table ( hubby's fault ,I keep telling him to remove anything and everything within paw shot and while she's very smart, she doesn't know how to pay bills yet so I don't' think that was her plan when she so voraciously attacked the pile), grabbed the checkbook and ran, (now this I'm thinking this might be her way of telling me that she wants to go shopping today, maybe for her secret santa, not sure, but I kind of have to agree with her idea on this one), I've ran up and down the stairs over thirty times already, if I don't' drop five lbs this week I never will, and she just sits there with those giant saucer puppy eyes with a look that almost says, "I'm trying to help you burn calories Mom," at least that's how I interpreted it. I can't wait to see what the afternoon brings with a morning like this. My morning so far is like a comedy show of errors. I can't possibly be the only one going through this. What is your routine or perhaps any pointers on how to make these "zoomie" mornings a little less zoomie?
