I think this so adorable (and of course brillant)that Cody (gr/yl mix)wakes me up with a whine and a kiss the second he hears my alarm. He knows the name of all his toys and can find his leash wherever I leave it. In the morning he mischieviously goes down our hill (me in slippers so I can't nab him) and rolls and rolls in the dewy wet grass and will lay there playing dead until I threaten to go inside and lock him out! On snowy morns esp he will stay out for what seems forever and just run and roll and dig until the yard looks like a bomb hit it. Ya really can't get angry-it's just so cute no matter how wet he gets.I've learned to get up earlier because it's so predictable. We also built a cememnt porch in back which he has REFUSED to even walk on (goes around) cause I think it ruined his routine and he liked the yard exactly like it WAS!
