I did some new fings this week. I did some great games with carrots. I like carrots, maybe even more than kibbles. Acktually, much more than kibbles. A carrot is nice & crunchy & juicy and kibbles is all kind of dry & boring.
So when my mum tied a string to my carrot slice instead ob gifing to to me to crunch I thought she was qwite crazy indeed!!!
‘Why are you doing that to my carrot Mum?’
But I am so clever that getting my carrot back was no truble. Carrot goes under couch. Waaaayyy under. String sticks owt. Dawg pulls on string wif mouth & gets carrot owt. But hey. No one told me that rules, so I just use my clever paws & scrap the sting owt until, voila, here is my carrot. Nom nom nom. Crunch crunch crunch.
‘See me using my paw. ‘Scuse Mum’s chubby arm in da way!’
Ok, what’s next mum?
Noms under cups. I’m pretty smart abowt this game too. Mum hides the bit ob carrot under a upside down paper kaffee cup. I knocks da cup over wif my paw, and chomp, nom is all gone. Now – da trick is, maybe there is two or three cups. Which one has the nom under? Sniff, sniff, sniff. Ah, dat one! Whack. Chomp. Nom all gone.
‘Wooo won’t trick me Mum!!’
Well, those are the fun ones. Da mum has also started to teach me to go backwards. Why, I just don’t know. Why would I want to go AWAY from her who has the noms??
Anyway, being as I am pretty clever I started figuring it owt right away. But only once I tried every other trick I know to get her to hand over that nom. I mean, she doesn’t reaaaaallly want me to go BACK does she. Yep, it appears that is want is required.
‘See. Now I am here ….’
Oh well, anything for food.
‘……and now I is back here!’
And I finks I might get an extra nom for lying down. So I tries that as well!!
I is a dog, after all. 😉
