Woos PTer's

I thought you might like this picture of me being brave. Well, Mom said you would like it!

A couple nights ago, my Mom was already in bed and my Dad was watching TV on the futon. Did you know we broke the futon so it stays a bed all the time now!? Anywoo, I decided to be really brave and I let myself up on the couch and snuggled up to Dad. I have never, ever gotten on the couch before. Not once in the two years and nine months that I have lived here. And I certainly never cuddled with Dad. He's kinda scary sometimes. He's really LOUD! I hate loud! Dad was so shocked that he wouldn't move until I got down. He called Mom quietly until she finally got up. She was all grouchy at him until she saw me snuggling on the couch, then she almost started crying.

Mom says I am still getting braver and more confident. I also went counter surfing yesterday and scored a big chunk of cheese. Mom made me go outside for awhile after that! I have to go snuggle with Preacher now. I am helping take care of him and he is feeling a bit better today. He was wagging his tail earlier and wanted to go for a little walk.

Wooos and kisses
Franklin the Brave!

Oh Franklin, I am so happy for you!! I know first hand how happy your mommy is and how proud of you she must be!! Just a few weeks ago I was able to snap the first picture ever of my hubby and Buddy together!!! You pups sure can be silly!! You've spent so much time being afraid of those big loud men... and all you had to do was let your guard down for a little bit to be able to realize... hey.. they're not so mean after all!!!:D

Bless your heart Franklin for being such a brave boy and for making sure Preacher is feeling better!

That's Heyoka. He was waiting for his turn to come inside and bugging Muskwa through the glass. They are always bugging each other!
