Barkley-Buddy Blogging



Well the puppy has been home for a little over a week and things are going well. Sure, he's not potty trained yet, but he does pee, assuming we take him out every four hours. If we forget, well, then it's our own fault.

This morning Barkley (the dog) and Buddy (the cat) played chase. That was the first real sign that they are becoming friends. At first the cat wasnt' sure about Barkley, but he's figured out that a little dog can be a good friend.

As for the daughter, she is crazy about the dog. She dresses him up. Yes, that's right. I have a teeny, tiny dog that gets dressed up like a doll baby. What of it? Big honking biker guy hauls around an insy winsy dog. It's funny; I get it. It's worth it to see all the happiness that this little guy brings my daughter and wife. They even have a dog purse so they can take him with them. The wife doesn't warm up to pets too much. She just doesn't, but she loves this dog. She dresses him up and cuddles with him and all kinds of things. Something about a little dog that helps bring out empathy in people. He's been great for the daughter that way too.
