A midday nap on the couch
Hello, Watchers! It seems that every time I post, I’m apologizing for not posting enough. And I’m always blaming my pets for their “busy” lives. If only they could walk a day in my paws. Then they could see what busy really means. I wake up and groom Pet#1 for a good 15 minutes. I lick her nostrils, every inch of her face, and any “owies” she has (my saliva could cure cancer, I swear!). Shortly after, we exchange massages/scratches. She rubs my belly, behind my ears, and occasionally the inside of my ears. It feels soooo good. Then I nuzzle and drape my body over hers–just to show her I love her and that I’m the boss! All of the love exhausts me and I go back to bed in her arms while we wait for Pet #2 to wake up. Once he’s awake, I go into crazy mode and run laps around the apartment at full speed, while simultaneously growling. I’m sure the neighbors love it! At this point in the day, we go on a walk around the complex, where I sniff other dogs’ bums and mark my territory. This is my apartment complex! After we get home, it’s back to lollygagging around. As soon as the sun hits that perfect spot in the sky, I lay in my patch of sunshine that makes my puppy fur so warm. My pets love when I’ve been sleeping for an extended period of time because I smell like a Dorito when I’m warm (or as Grandpet Trace calls it, “Frito feet”). This activity can go on for hours, depending on the amount of activity going on around me. If there is any sudden movement, I immediately follow whichever pet has caused the commotion and bite at their ankles. I’m only one year old, so I haven’t completely shaken the bad puppy habits yet. I continue all of this until my pets leave for work and then the fun begins! And by fun, I mean snoozefest. All I do is sleep in my little puppy bed. My pets just recently bought me a new one and it’s so soft! As soon as Pet #1 arrives home, she lets me out and lies on the ground so I can attack her with puppy kisses (and try to reach her brain, of course, but I’m still not getting very far with my tongue in her nostrils. Perhaps I should try through her ears instead? I digress…)! Fast forward a few walks later, and we’re all in bed, ready to do it again the next day. And now you can see how busy and fulfilling my life is… Too bad my pets don’t see it that way!
My new puppy bed! So warm and cozy!
Nibbling Pet #1's hand while sunbathing in my patch of sun is one of my favorite pasttimes.
