Doggie Mom...Dumping over her water dish got my attention. Boy can I relate! Thanks to our new Pet List I quickly looked up info about Maddie. (Age: a little over a year.) As I was reading I thought "she must be a puppy!" She sounds very much like Bella with her actions. Gee, I thought that by the time Bella was a little over a year old this would stop! Bella also loves taking things from the small trash cans in the house (without lids). It is a game now and she is quick!! When she has retrieved what she wants she literally prances through the house, tail up straight and haughty as can be, looking over her shoulder like she is saying nah nah nah nah nah!! She does the same thing at the door too. Rachel you have hit it on the head. I know with Bella it is because she wants us to come outside and run around with her. Hannah is doing the same thing I am sure. What characters huh!!
