Buddy is growing like a weed. Last routine trip to the vet, he weighed 10 lbs 14 ounces. Long legs and strong body. He is almost getting the hang of potty training..."almost" but at least it is better now that when we first brought him home. His worst bad habit is picking up sticks and tree bark outside and chewing on it. Bad for digestion I think. I sprayed bitter apple on sticks today and he spit stick out so maybe that will work.
Buddy is in here with me at the computer. He is carrying around an old pair of my white socks and exploring under the bed. His favorite TV program is "Football. Any team with red on their uniforms. I think he is watching football on TV to prove he is macho like Mr C. If Buddy breaks out a beer and starts scratching himself I will restrict his TV.
I am typing this real "QUIETLY" so Buddy won't be alarmed. Next Monday, December 7, "Pearl Harbor Day" Buddy is scheduled for a "SNIP" He will stay overnight at the vet and return home early the next day.

Sounds like Buddy is a delight!!!
I'm glad you're enjoying him and delighted to see a post from you. I do worry!
I love Buddy's diary entries...sounds like the perfect pup life. I'd say he's a pretty lucky little guy...and you sound like you're really lovin' your little 'buddy.' Take care Janet...xo
of course Buddy wants to chew on sticks, all dogs do!
next favourite thing is food, again, food is doggy for 'love'.
Isn't it fun to have such a little chappie around.
Dogs are so different than cats with their dispositions ... they truly do love just about everything they do. I'm glad you have your new friend.

Geeze! No wonder Buddy is not yet completely potty trained. He's been so busy keeping his diary and has such a busy social life "takin' care of business" is probably pretty low on his priority list.
The coincidence of his "snipping" appointment and Dec. 7th holds a significance that does not escape me!
Thanks Ginnie I just deleted it.
and Kay I have been busy with Buddy :)
Joy You are a dear.

Buddy would love your country side setting We are in a condo development but with lost of grass and trees around.
Joared Yep And Buddy says he considers this December 7 a "Day that will live in infamy " also.
Buddy sounds like such a great little guy. Also sounds like he is teething. :-). I remember, years ago, when one of my pups was teething.. he managed to chew and destroy many of our baseboards. There is rarely a dull moment with a pup in the house. :-)
