This has been a wonderful month! I have learned to love the beach! Did you know there are smelly, rotten crabs you can roll in? And areas where I can just run and run and run. I have even learned to get more comfortable in the water, as long as I have a furry friend or two to help me. I also seem to have had a lot of baths this month…
One of the things I have finally learned is that the command “here” is my opportunity to run as fast as I can towards someone who will give me treats, cuddles, or a toy! I used to ignore “here” all the time, but now I am much, much better.
I like living at my new house, and I get along really well with Sasha. Sometimes she teaches me things. Right now she is teaching me to be super brave around the vacuum!
