Paddington Goes to the Groomer

Paddington got his first haircut today!!! He doesn't look so mangey now. He had gone to the groomer once before, but just for a bath. This time he got the whole treatment! They even put his hair in a topknot! (My baby boy is growing up!)

I was so sad because the groomer told me he was bad and needed to go to obedience classes... to which I responded "um... er... he's already halfway finished with the classes offered here (Petsmart)" She didn't believe me...He's such a brat!!!!! At least she was able to trim him, so his hair is no longer in his eyes, and he looks more like a yorkie rather than a scraggly mutt! The second picture below shows his topknot bow straight... he is a rebel and knocks it crooked every time I straighten it for a picture. I also bought him a shirt to wear this week to the fireworks and patriotic gala. (last picture) Yeah, I know, I dress my dog up.

Slacker

I am such a slacker with my blog lately. I suck. Sorry

My psychology degree came in handy for something

They get in so much trouble!

Paddington and Noah get into so much trouble together!

He's taken over!

This has become The Paddington Bear blog!I didn't know that a puppy would take over my whole entire life, including my blog! I've meant to write about several things- the government going on a banning streak, telling us poor unfortunate uneducated people how to dress, eat get married, and spend our money; about the amazing children that I work with every day; about the rise of evil capitalist empires (just for Daryl) .... but I've been too busy with my dog. You have to admit though, he's SO cute! And dead sexy in that denim jacket, with his "bitch" by his side (that green stuffed poodle is his bitch...)

I taught him a new trick today! I wasn't feeling well enough to play his rough games, so I kept him occupied by teaching him "BANG! you're dead!" He does it pretty well now! Once I get him doing it more consistently, I will video tape it and put it on youtube. He is so funny! I point my finger like a pistol and say "BANG! you're dead! and he rolls over onto his back. He gets confused unless he's already laying- he hasn't figured out how to get onto his back from sitting or standing. We're working on it though. He's a genius!
