The Dork Dog
I never post about Max the dog. Ok, I rarely post at all. This is a blurry picture of him, but it will have to do.
Here are some nicknames Max has:
Here are some of Max's favorite words:
His least favorite words:
However if you pair the word "kennel" with the word "treat" he'll happily get inside. At the end of the night he does not like the word "outside" because he knows it is followed by "kennel." Either of those words will get a growl. In the morning if he feels cranky and doesn't want to kennel he'll lean against either the corner of the kitchen cabinets or the side of the couch. We call those his "time out corners." He will generally cower in one of you come upstairs and he's been doing something he's not supposed to (like eating out of the garbage or sleeping on a chair). It doesn't matter that we haven't caught him actually doing anything, he just knows he did something wrong.
If you ask him about something he did wrong, like drag a washcloth into the living room (he likes to roll in dirty laundry, gross but true), he will turn his head away from you. "I don't know what you are talking about."
He is positive that everyone who visits wants to throw his toys for him. Repeatedly. He is an annoying pain in the butt, but he will almost always do anything for treats or toys.
He is a freak about plastic bags. When the garbage goes out he gets all excited and starts barking, because he knows that someone is going to get a new garbage bag and shake it out. He can hear the sound of a garbage bag being removed from the cupboard from any room in the house and races around barking like crazy until he finds a toy, which he shakes into oblivion everytime someone shakes the garbage bag. I mean to film it sometime.
That's all. I was just thinking about my stupido dog, and you all had to read about it. All, what 3 of you or so who aren't 100% on facebook all the time?
