Well- November was nice. Did lots of outings. Went to a restaurant, and I sat under the table really nicely, and then Perry was talking to me about something, and I pretended I didnโ€™t understand him, and he got mad b/c he goes, โ€œI just canโ€™t get through to her!!?? Is it me, or is she stupid??โ€ฆand when he looked away, I laughed and laughed! โ€ฆIโ€™M not stupidโ€ฆPERRY.

Went back to a couple of pools – Itโ€™s easy to rest there and just people-watch. Interestingly, โ€ฆthey all walk around mostly with just their fur on – makes me feel less naked all the time, so itโ€™s good to have them be one of me.

I got to hang out with Mara. So fun, we are such good friends. We were to have a walk together on what turned out to be the day before she moved away. Sโ€™all right, we had a great party with three others of her pack the week before – I donโ€™t think Iโ€™ll forget her b/c I still smell her all over the place here, and Iโ€™ve not covered all of it with my own stink yetโ€ฆ.getting there โ€ฆhave to remember to keep hydrated. Going to touch base with Marvelous after Christmas to see if she wants to go out. Sheโ€™s so cool. So excited for her, sounds like sheโ€™s got a fantastic new family.

I got to stay over at Tatorโ€™s house, he is really good at playing with me – he tells me when to take a rest.

Oh- on the way to the doctor, I saw this fantastic-looking other dog! (Again) I saw her before at the house and that first time I met her I barked – and she barked too at the same time! Sheโ€™s fabulous, she speaks my language, we have a real connection, and similar values, likes nose kisses and long walks on the beach. I love looking at her- I just stare in her lipid pools of those brown puppy dog eyes.

Chuck still calls me a โ€œcontenderโ€. I think that means she thinks I have a good chance at getting a job when I grow up โ€ฆshe says, then, I can buy my โ€˜own damn kibbleโ€™. โ€˜ Earn your keep, blah, blah – โ€˜get a job, cut your hair, move out of my basement…โ€™ If you donโ€™t believe me ask Ryder- I was sitting right next to him when she told me โ€ฆjeesh โ€ฆIโ€™m just 14 weeks old. I donโ€™t even drive yet, and I spend almost NO time in her basement.
Looking forward to December- I hear itโ€™s really fun, full of friendship and festivities โ€ฆevery day a dog’s afternoon.

Iโ€™ll tell you all about it next pupdate.
