Things I've learned from My Puppy.....

Who would think it, but you can learn many things from a little puppy!  This little cutie has changed my life in so many ways and maybe it is age, because this is not my first rodeo.  I have had a few puppies over the years but mostly we have adopted dogs who were out of the puppy stage.  Maybe it's because my life has slowed down a bit and I have more time to study her as she grows.  I don't know but I do know that she is just pure Joy and I love her for that!

Here is my list of the things that I have learned so far from Miss Lucy Loo:

• Don't underestimate the power of a good nap
• Enjoy your toys whenever you can and never stop playing
• If you have food, a soft bed, somebody to love, everything will be ok
• Romp outside when you can, even in the rain
• Hugs and kisses are awesome
• Baths are overrated but it sure feels good after it's over
• Sometimes you just need a haircut
• Being friendly is a good thing - even when it's a big ole Dalmation that scares you - just smile and keep moving
• Even when you are feeling lousy, get up and move some
• Whining does not always work - most of the time it doesn't
• Running off is not all it's cracked up to be
• Sometimes boys do have cooties
• Sisters can be yucky but that's ok
• You can love your brother and still tackle him
• Your Daddy is special and be happy every time you see him
• Help with the laundry, even it is is just helping carry stuff
• Don't over eat cause you will surely throw up
• Ask for a potty break before you have to go really bad
• You are braver than you think and stronger than you know.....

I am sure I will find many more things I have missed but this is a good start.  Love my Lucy!!
