Curly: 5/18 - GRAM VISITED!

Like any good gram, my mom had to come over and visit her new foster grandpup last night.  My mother cannot have dogs at this time, but she is so in love with dogs.  Like any good gram, the pups know when she comes over, good things will happen, so my pups were especially excited to see her walk through that front door.  Curly quickly learned what the excitement was all about.  MUSHIES (aka, marshmallows)!!!!!!  All the mushies you can eat, if gram has anything to say about it.  She sat and played for a while and in that time she made sure to tell me that I needed to share that Curly is a kisser!  She got so excited with gram that not only was she giving kisses, but she was so excited that the helicopter tail was going (circular, not back and forth), and she was snorting.  It was absolutely hysterical.  I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that Curly got her name because of her "corkscrew pig tail", so not only does she have that adorable corkscrew tail, she snorts when she is excited.  You cannot help but laugh!  Of course, gram gets everyone all excited at 7 or 8 at night and the toys have to come out again, too.  That just made us feel like maybe it was picture time.  Oh, and of course after kisses, playtime and mushies (aka SUGAR), like any smart gram, she went home and left us with 3 sugared-up pups!
