Our new little puppy, Galataya, is being an immense jerk all the time, except when she is unbearably cute. Tonight is a night of maximum jerkishness. She ate my new headphones, I got cross, she pranced around with delight and Glinda (the older dog) hid guiltily under my desk, like it was her fault for not closely supervising the jerk at all times.

I can highly recommend puppy preschool, if you don't want her to be a jerk all her life!

Megan did a whole obedience training course, Spencer didn't see it through, and the difference in howwell behaved they each were was huge.

I think Glinda has spoiled us a bit because she is so well behaved with hardly any training. Galataya definitely needs some lessons. When we first got Glinda, the nearest convenience dog obedience classes were in Hopper's Crossing, and I can't do that now because I no longer have a car. But we will try to find something closer to Altona.

hang on, is this puppy-standard jerk or human-standard jerk? is she, like, cross-posting to alt.slack or something? 'cause i wouldn't stand for a puppy doing that, and neither should you.

Not human-standard jerk, thank goodness. Except maybe for toddler-level jerkishness, as in the whole world revolves around puppy and everyone must bow down to her whims.

PS. Now that I'm no longer friends with Mike, is it safe to admit that Omar the Dipshit is my favourite Frantic Dogpaddle song? You should sing more.

i used to get that a lot when i was in the australian boys choir, but that was, like, forty years ago.
