2 months in with the Skippa..... [View all]

Thought I'd share my new life with a golden puppy. This is the 3rd go around in 40 years, so nothing really surprises me. Had been alone, by myself for 3 years until this fella showed up 2 months ago.

What the Skippa has learned.

* Within a week of moving in, he managed to find my upstairs office with no help from me on the stairs. Needless to say, he's an expert at climbing the stairs, up and down, at all hours of the day and night.

* Became good friends with my son's pitbull, Chase, last week when son and fiancée went to Jamaica for 5 days. The initial intro went badly, but became best buds.



* Last week, he learned how to entertain himself....I blame myself for letting him sleep on my bed.



This week he learned about shoes. Not so much about chewing them as taking them and leaving them in places where I wouldn't normally think to look.

So, as of tonight, the Skippa has been outside a 1/2 dozen times playing in the blizzard and still comes back for cookies...good dog.



But....then again, bad dog.
