The Adventures of Sadie

What Am I?

Mommy and daddy have been trying to figure out where I get my white paw from. People always have an idea of what breed I'm mixed with, anything from Doberman to Rottweiler to Hound... but Mommy and Ashley are thinking maybe Great Dane because of my huge paws and floppy ears. Mommy first thought Great Danes have pointy ears, but then she saw some pictures of them with floppy ones just like mine...and they were white! So maybe I'm part Great Dane? I have the gentle and friendly personality, not to mention the Great Dane size! It would be interesting to find out for sure what I am, but for now we can only guess!

Adjusted Route

Mommy took me the same route downtown by the little girl's house. Her mommy was sitting on the stoop again and gave me attention when I walked by. Then she called her daughter out to say hello and pet me! My mommy said that this was going to be our usual route from now on so they'd probably be seeing a lot of us, and they told us to come by every day to see them! On the way home we stopped by the boat launch and I got to play in the river. It was so refreshing! Mommy stays on the edge of the water and lets me splash around in it, but one of these days I'm going to end up pulling mommy in with me! hehehe Last night daddy said he should bring my long lead and let me swim in the river so they can be on the edge of the water and I can go play all I want! I love these long walks because I get to meet so many people and other doggies! Mommy loves these long walks because they tire me out and then she gets a few moments of quiet for herself... especially when I go nuts when daddy comes home! hehehe

It's..... ALIVE!!

Just call Mommy Dr. Frankenstein! hehehe Yup, she sewed Ducky back together and turned him into "Franken-Duck". Ducky is missing some fur, his beak, and half his head... but he's still fun to carry around and go nuts on! I still love my Duck!

In other news, we had the longest walk yet... and the best one yet! I hardly pulled on the leash and I made a new friend! We walked downtown and back, and on the way home there was a little girl and her mommy sitting on their stoop by the sidewalk. I wanted to go say hi, and mom told them before we got there I was very friendly and would want to say hello to them. The mommy called me to her and started petting me, and her little girl petted me, too. I made the girl laugh when I gave her puppy kisses! By the time we got back home I was all tuckered out... so tuckered out that I walked up the steps instead of jumping up onto the porch like I usually do! We did twice the distance we normally do in the same amount of time and Mommy said we may have to start walking that route every day if I'm going to be a good puppy on my leash. I can't wait to see where we go tomorrow!
