This rain has GOT TO
GO! The less outside playtime Tiny Dog gets, the more personalities she
develops. My goal is to get my multi-personality dog down to two personalities.
One for tired and sweet and one for awake and happy. The other personalities
she is currently working are: batdog, chupacabra, and s*&#head. The more
exercise she gets the better behaved she is, this is not breaking news. Every
dog owner knows this.
But it’s July and it’s
the South, which means rain and lots of it. The problem with July rain is that
it’s not just rain. It’s a torrential downpour served with a heaping side of
thunder. Tiny doesn’t mind the rain, she’ll run around the yard completely
oblivious to it. That is until the thunder starts. And as you saw in the
Thunder Buddies post, Tiny will have no part of that.
So this leaves me
with a 4 month old puppy with a lot of energy in a 900 sq. ft house. I was
hoping to take Tiny to the dog park this weekend for her first visit, but as I
sit here typing this, while listening to the rumble of thunder outside, it’s
not looking so promising. The forecast calls for rain, rain, and more rain. And
Facebook is telling me that downtown is flooded already, lovely. WOMP WOMP
WOMP.
So activities for the
day have consisted of this:
- Chased Tiny off the couch twice
- Fussed at her for bat dogging 15 times
- Removed my flip flop from her mouth 3 times
- Stopped her from eating the carpet once
- Told her to stop barking at the guitar because it was not her enemy
The day is only half
over and my little batdog has a lot of energy left. If anyone has any tips for
indoor entertainment for puppies, I am all ears.
