Up and over that tree—easy! |
Well, I've been retired a week now, and I think it's safe to say I'm a natural. I have made it my mission to make sure my foster family goes on long walks every day. That's how I have learned about a bunch of new surfaces. Since last Saturday, I've had the opportunity to learn about walking on blacktop, concrete, bricks, wooden bridges, metal bridges, mulch, and even how to climb over a tree truck! When we're walking, I make sure we keep up the pace, so L and J call me "Coach" sometimes. (It's ok, you can call me Ursala—I'm not formal.)

Miss Thing likes to sit next to my bed. |
Miss Thing and I have come to an agreement that I can usually have a dog bed, although she likes to come and sit next to me sometimes. I don't mind, as long as I have my bed. The beds themselves are another challenge, because sometimes I fall off the side, but I am getting a little better at not doing that. Except today when I fell asleep with my tail in the water bowl (L was going to take a picture of me, but I asked her not to share it—so embarrassing!)

This is me in my crate. |
It turns out that during the week, both L and J have to go to work sometimes, which means that Mr. G and I stay home alone in our crates. I have a bed in my crate now and blankets, so I like that, although as soon as anyone gets home, I am ready to go, go go! I also sleep in my crate at night, and I will let L know if I am ready to go out in the morning. Inside the house, I can walk on hardwood floors without problems and I also learned to do the stairs this week.

See my white socks? |
This week, I also discovered that I really like meeting people. There are a lot of people to meet out in the world, and I just want to get to know all of them. When we pass people on walks, I try to say "Hi!" to all of them. I also like to do cuddle time at home with J. He likes to do "hug time" with me and Mr. G.
Anyway, I'm really enjoying my time here, but I can't wait to find my furever home. I know it's going to be greyt. Everyone who meets me says that I am such a sweetheart and also so cute. I have white socks and a white tip on my tail—very distinguished!
Bye for now!
