don't i look good?
hellooooooo world!!! it was a rough trip, but here i am in….where am i, again?
welcome to my first dlog post. if you like reading it, i will accept a cookie as reward. an ear rub would be nice, too.
i’m so excited to be back with mom and dad, but things seem…well…different. first off, it’s HOT outside, and muggy, and rains more often. people here talk funny and here’s the craziest part—they don’t seem to think i’m adorable! when i take mom or dad for a walk, we see lots of people, and i strut my stuff to show them how cute i am, but people just seem to walk away or pretend they don’t see me. i’m not letting it hurt my self-esteem too much…mom and dad still give me the attention i deserve. plus they have new friends…one who’s teaching them to talk funny, and she calls me cute (in the funny-speak). then there’s another one that cleans the house, and i like her a lot except when she brings out the vacuum cleaner monster.
i like our new house, but my bed is a little too small and sometimes my butt hangs out the back when i lay in it. sometimes instead of my regular dinner i get people food (rice and diced veggies), which is pretty good…but what do i know? i’ll eat anything. when i eat the veggies i get so excited that i leave some stuck to the wall next to my bowl, which is nice ’cause then it’s like an extra snack for later.
i'm supposed to stay on this blanket now on the couch...ha ha yeah right
when i want to “get busy” now i have to ride 24 floors in an elevator, so i’m learning to hold it. that’s good, because i haven’t found a perfect spot to pee yet…sometimes i’ll spend 5 or 6 minutes dragging mom or dad around, looking for that perfect spot, squatting here and there…but it just never feels quite right.
there's so much commotion out there!
well, that’s it for now. i miss my dog friends, and all my other people friends, too. do you think they’ll visit?
did you smell that?? i gotta go. lick you soon!
Heard Cooper had a very long trip to her new home but seem to be adjusting, even thought it is a very different way to live. Not every dog gets to be a world traveler. Is she wearing dog shoes to go outside?
That was really cute. Is she happy? I can’t tell. She doesn’t smile or did I miss it?
When Cooper returns to the states will she be do-lingual?
You still look very CUTE to me Coop. Where are your booties?
Coop, you gotta look happy & curious when you’ve got those walking booties on your tootsies. I’ve seen pictures of you when you look happier. Michelle wants to know if you bark in Mandarin now. I see you’re back to your search for the perfect “get busy” spot. Right now your friend, Evy, is taking herself for a run in her dream. She’s going on a long one. Cho cho
Ahh I miss you and your parents! I’m so glad that you are having fun in that weird place. Maybe I can come visit. I’ll ask my mommy to drive me to you. I like to sleep on the couch but I WOULD NOT accept people ignoring me on the street. Trying jumping on them or peeing on their shoes.
Miss you,
Ghetti
That is adorable……
Miss you Coops!!
