Well Andrew is, not me. Andrew loves playing with carla and letting her on the furniture to cuddle with him. Yet he blatantly refuses to pick up her poop while walking her. He conviently "forgets" that he is supposed to pick it up. So we have become "those people" who leave their dog's poop hidden under a leaf. So on behalf of my husband i apologize to all you who step in dog poop because of his negligence.
And yes he is reading this as i write it and i hope it shames him into becoming a more responsible dog owner:)
I have also discovered that if owning a dog is any indication of future parenting behaviors, then i am going to be an overprotective, worrying, neurotic mother. I freak out about every little thing. Whenever she is in the back of the truck i turn around and check on her every 30 seconds. Her stomach was making weird noises this morning so i texted Andrew every 30 min wondering if she had gone to the bathroom or eaten or if she is back to normal. Just ask kelly how many times i have asked her if i some how broke carla.
so here's hoping i learn to lighten up.

ReplyDeleteHa ha ha hahahahahaha Well its a good thing you are learning these characteristics about each other while you are only the parents of a pup!
ReplyDeleteI love it!!!
ReplyDeleteTrust me - you WILL NOT break her.
The very first weekend we got her we were throwing the ball for her in the park and she must have rolled over a sprinkler head or something because that evening we found an inch deep puncture wound in her side that needed 3 stitches. She never even winced!!! We wouldn't have even known it was there if my finger didn't go straight into the hole while I was petting her. Her name, rightfully, means "manly".
Also, don't forget that she survived in the Newberry Crater wilderness for who knows how long before she was rescued by a forest ranger and brought to the humane society :)
She's a tough little puppy - even though she'd prefer for you to think otherwise... she LOVES being babied by you :)
