When I get home my puppy Poco is just as excited as I am, maybe alot more. She jumps as high as my stomach, and she is 10 inches tall, and she jumps like 10 times in a row, and whines and talks to me and races around the house and then she throws herself on her belly and begs for a belly rub. All the while Im like
"POKEY POKEY POOOO!!! EEEE HAY GURLYGIRL!!!
HOWZAMEES PREETY POOPY!! WIJIWIJIWIJIWIJIWIJI!! POOZEEPOOPYGRL! POCOBELLY?? POCOPOCOPOCOOOOO! POCOBELLY!
GOOJEEPUPPEEJEE!! EEEEEEEEHEEHEEHEE!!!" and so on. It is perfectly normal, because if you teach your dog a trick, then they understand a little bit of our language. If you don't talk to them they might get depressed or something. By the way im only a freshman, so you middle-aged women can know that everyone does it. My best friend is the same w/her dog.
