My daughter, the puppy

Ways that my baby girl is a lot like a puppy:

1. When you shake a can of her snacks, she comes running (or crawling, technically) over because she knows what that sound means.

2. She often comes over and pulls herself up on the kitchen chair someone is sitting on when they are eating, to beg for bites of food.

3. If she gets her hands on a shoe, she will certainly start to chew on it. Ew. Amping up the immune system, I guess. The other day she got a hold of my slipper in my bedroom closet and it immediately went to her mouth.

4. She gets the biggest kick out of mundane things...wrapping paper, crawling on the couch cushion when we put it on the floor, when someone lays down on the floor so she can crawl all over them. We can practically see her tail wagging with excitement.

5. She needs to go to obedience school, as she has not grasped the concept that "no" means "stop doing what you are doing."

6. She isn't potty trained.

7. She eats food off the floor.

8. She loves when you roll a ball around on the floor. She thinks that is hilarious and entertaining.

9. She loves strangers. I think she would sniff them and lick their face if she were able.

10. She sucks on a washcloth. That's not puppy-like, but when she's sucking on a wash cloth at Papa's house, Papa takes the other side of the washcloth in his mouth and they have a sort of tug-of-war with it in their mouths.
