Gracie is now 4 1/2 months old. Smart dog, hugely energetic. She's not very big, just 8 lb, but there's a lot packed into that Cairn Terrier. Her newest trick....
Yesterday my wife was at her computer surfing some web site and kept hearing a noise at her feet - a clanking/clunking noise. She looked down and there was Gracie, with her ceramic dog dish in her teeth dropping the bowl at her feet on the hardwood floor and wagging her tail wildly. She was hungry! So my wife got up, put some dry dog food in her bowl and it was chowed down upon instantly. I think I know why the pup did that...
She is a furious tennis ball player. She will chase balls for hours on end and I'm the primary thrower. Since those puppy teeth are hypodermic needle sharp and I have the blood to prove it, I stopped taking the ball from her mouth and make her drop it in front of me when she wants to play. So she has learned to do that and even rolls it at me with her nose.
She's taken that ball playing request into one for more food. Its hilarious!
We'll have to see if she can grow into those ears.....lol
