My 3rd Gotcha Day

I got a box, full of replacement squeakies for the intelligence toys, that I have. (Iqube, Hide-a-squirrel, Cagey Cube) I love the toys, but I guess my big teeth are a bit hard on the squeakers! (Oops!) It's my favorite thing, to make my squeakers squeak and I don't like the toys so much, if they don't make noise, so every now and then, mom buys me replacement parts, for those toys! So, I was wondering if it was Christmas, or something.

Then, they took me to the fancy pet store and got me some fancy treats. I didn't get to eat them yet. It was kind of cold to go outside and to dark in the house, to take pictures. Maybe tomorrow. I hope I get them soon.

Anyway, mom says I've been with the family, for 3 years now and that's why I got all the presents! Mom's friends think that she has a pretty spoiled puppy! LOL!

Loud Popping Noises

My neighbors were out on their driveway, with company. Mom said they were having a fire. Then the fire made a popping noise. I was so freaked out, I couldn't go potty. Mom just didn't understand and got so mad at me. She even kept the bedroom door closed all night, so I wouldn't go potty on the living room carpeting.

This morning, mom had to drag me outside, with the leash on, because I still thought I would hear a popping noise. Then later on, she thought to bring a dried sausage treat outside with her, and I can't resist those, so out I went. I was still creeping around, like I was scared to be outside, though. It's gotten better, as the day goes on, and I haven't heard anymore popping noises. Mom also noticed that when going outside meant a car-ride, I wasn't scared at all! It's just when I have to go potty.

She is worried about when firecrackers start, at the end of June, in preparation for 4th of July. I can be enjoying myself, and then when one of those makes a popping noise, I head right for the door. Nothing scares me inside my house! Mom thinks it's going to be a long summer.
