Here to stay???

The family called the Monday before they were suppose to meet us and decided not to take her. So, while the boys and I were in Wisconsin, Ryan bonded with her. Jack still got his books.Now, she even enjoys a swim or just hanging out in the pool.

The last straw

Maizy will be going to her new family this coming Tuesday. The other night was the last straw, when she was out and chasing deer. Glad it's not deer season, or a hunter would have shot her. I think the whole family is relieved that she is going to a good home. The lady trains leader dogs and has teenagers. I feel they will be a better fit for her. Jack has said it is "o.k.", but he did negotiate 7 new "The Magic School Bus" books from Barnes & Noble.

It's Offcial

Graduation was this week. Maizy now has her certificate from the Mt. Pleasant, Kennel Club for completing puppy obedience class of 7 weeks. Now, I just need to keep on her. Jack came to the last class and had fun taking her thru the obstacle course.

Another hunter in the house

Maizy has really been honing her hunting and caturing skills lately. First, she just chase and bark at the turkeys. Next, she got a bird, then a mouse and now she got three baby chipmunks. Of course she has to put them on the front ponch in front of the door, so we can see them. She likes getting Ryan's approval.

Digging

I have tried everything except the chicken wire to stop the digging. Red Crushed Pepper worked for a little and so did the Black Pepper. Maybe she can't smell, but I sure can the Cayanne pepper sure made my nose itch. I really hope she grows out of this stage, since I want to clean up the flower beds and do some planting.

Puppy School

We have now gone totwo puppy classes. She walks thru the door and turns into the most mild manner dog. Does everything I ask her to and the it is tim to go home. Every Tuesday Jack asked "where is my dog?", I always tell him to open the door. There she is sitting in the garage. He really love his dog.

She really does eat everything

Last night the boys gave her finger jell-o and she ate it. Today she was trying to eat the bubbles. The carpet will have to be repaired, since she chewed a whole in the middle of the bottom step.I was ready to get rid of her that day, but I just can't do that to Jack. He loves her so much. What does Quilted Northern have in it?She is always chewing the cardboard part and shreds the rest of it. Now, Toilet paper that is one I will never understand. I have finally taken it off the roller and put it up on the counter.
This week she will be starting puppy school.
