Hi Everyone,
Well, here it is, another week already. I've had so many new experiences this week I can hardly remember them all to tell you about them.
One thing is I went a couple days to day care at a place called the Dog Zone. They have a doggy cam, so my mommy and my daddy and A.Alpha were able to watch how I was doing on their computers when they had breaks throughout the day.
It is a pretty cool place. Kinda scary at first, and some of those big slobbery dogs kind of bug me, but one time when A.Alpha was watching on the doggy cam, I leaped right off the "little dogs" table and scared her half to death that I was going to break my leg or something. But I was fine. She really should stop worrying so much. I'm a terrier! Doesn't she remember?! I just wanted to follow the other dogs and the nice ladies who work there, and play on all the play equipment like the other dogs. Criiiiipes. No biggy!
I figured out right quick that if I get a bit stressed out, I can scootch right under the gate that separates the sections, and the big dogs can't get me, but I can go back in and out whenever I want! That's a pretty cool game, but I did shock and awe everyone there with that little maneuver, I'll tell ya. I guess I'm the smallest guy who ever went there. Small? Who says I'm small?! It must just be that I'm the most agile. That's it! Agile. And motivated. And nervy. And let's not forget smart. Heh.
I'm going to go to the Dog Zone at least once a week, A.Alpha says, and next week I'm going four whole days! She's got a lot of work, I guess.
I made her laugh this weekend. She was pulling weeds in the asparagus patch and had me on the leash, because -- pffffft -- she says she can't trust me to stay nearby. Anyhoo, I was going all around checking things out and I started digging. Oh how did I dig, and oh was that fun! I heard her tell my mom and dad that I looked like one of those cartoon characters, with the dirt flying out behind me and all over her. I like to make her laugh.
Here she is, telling my mom about it over the gmail chat thingy:
Then she gave me a taste of some raw bison meat when she was getting ready to cook burgers.
I think she likes me.
Love,
Mr. J.
Hey buddy! "Small" is just a state of mind, not a physical state. You show 'em!

Yep, agile and smart.
A Superior Digger.
You're not small at all.
Haiku at 6:30am. Help me. Need more coffee.

Agile is good! Maybe next year you can help dig up all the garden beds when it's time to turn the soil.

Ya Think, Mr. J?
Tell A. Alpha she looks like she's 20something in that photo, human years. :^)

That's not like, Mr. J. That is love.

I think you need to help A. Alpha turn the soil in her garden next season. Think you could handle that?
