You see, most newly retired racers are still on "track time" which means that we wake up early for business/number 1 or 2/potty/whatever you call it and breakfast. Well, not me. I'm retired, duh. I got that memo quick!
Let me show you what my days look like (for the most part):
Dis is Phil, when he's on the doggy bed... |
...I suffer with laying in the crate after I pace around him hoping he'll get tired and let me have the bed. |
oorrrrr..
I gets da bed... |
...and den Phil has to gets the crate. |
Sometimes, I wake up for some of this though:
Awwww, FoDad, you need some lubs. I'll helps. Mmm, those scritches feels gud! No, don't stops! |
I learned how to do the stairs in just ONE TRY! Hoomans, that is a really, big deal. You take it for granted that you were raised just knowing how to do everything. Track life is totally different than retired life so I'm learning a lot of new things halfway through the game!
So far I've learned about:
-stairs, which I've done carpeted stairs and wooden stairs that you can see through. The wooden ones were trickier than the carpet ones, but I made it!
-mirrors, that is one handsome doggy dude lookin' back at me.
-glass doors, ouch, only did that once.. Now I just rub my muzzle against the door waiting on FoMa to open the door!
-floors... My foster brother, Phil, is deathly afraid of slippery floors. I could care less. I transition from tile to carpet like its nobody's business.
-car rides, these are usually the gateway to fun activities. So much fun things happen not at home. Anytime FoMa opens the door to go somewhere, I want to be right behind beside her so I can go with her!
Did you fill out your application yet????? I'm ready to show you just how soft I am!
You can come test my love at PetValu in Leonardtown, MD on Sat. Feb 23rd. We'll be there from 11-3!!! I'm waiting on you!
so cute. Love that turtle shirt!
