Putting the cock in cocker spaniel

Get your mind out of the gutter! 

So I got an new iphone. Trudy decided to help me pick out a new ringtone. 

Street Smarts

Ok, my dog is so smart. This took her like 20 seconds to learn. I decided that these are more good terms to know for when we are out on the street and for when her sight gets really bad. I'm so proud. 

The Rules

In my house we have a few rules:
1) Trudy is not allowed on the furniture without being invited.
2) Neither Cassie nor Trudy is allowed on the white silk chair. Ever.

Here's how I found them the other day. Notice from the video they didn't even have the courtesy to look like they were doing something wrong. They just played dumb. Which obviously worked since I got the camera instead of shooing them off the chair.

The great pumpkin

Trudy's Halloween costume arrived today! This dog is such a good sport. I put it on her and her reaction was pretty much "whatever" and "why am I so hot?"

Let me sleep on it

Sleeping in the clean laundry....



Hiding from Trudy... while sleeping.



Playing in the recycling pile.... looking for a place to nap.



Snoozing on the hard window ledge...


Passed out on new (expensive!) pillows...


Cat napping on a favorite chair...

kisses!!

I think this is my favorite new command. I love some Trudy kisses. :)

New Tricks!

These videos are so dark - I really need some better lighting for my place. Anyway, Trudy has learned to go to her bed on command. We are also practicing her staying there while I go out into the hall.




I know it's only like 30 seconds of me leaving, but this is huge progress for us!
