Don't Be Fooled


This face may look as if it belongs to a sweet dog but there has been nothing sweet about Mamie Eisenhower lately. In fact, this picture is blurred because it was taken during the first movements before her lunging at me to bark in my face.

She has been on her best behavior since Christmas but that has since ended. Two days ago she got out of bed, our bed, and had a look of ornery. Just so you know, in case I ever dump her off at your home with her bags packed, the look entails slicked back ears and eyes that say, "I think I'm going to pounce on you now."

I'm not even going to list everything she has done but these few highlights should sum it up:

  • Running mindless laps around the house.
  • Nipping Beau on the chin twice (once for no reason and then again as he was fussing at her for nipping him the first time.)
  • Diving snout-first into a Chick-fil-A milkshake of Ryan's, Beau's best friend, in an effort to retrieve the cherry and whipped cream on top.

I'm afraid we are in the midst of the pre-teen years with our four-legged child and no amount of spankings or shaming can deter her behavior.
