Poop in the house? Who me? Couldn't be!

So, I really didn't want to go outside today... Mom made me go out to potty a couple of times. The other times throughout the day when Deshi and Yukiko would go out I refused and would run around wanting to play with my gingerbread man toy. After all, it was cold and rainy out - much nicer to stay inside.

Well, later that evening when Mom went to work I found myself in quite the predicament. Dad was still on his way home from work and I felt the need to poop. What to do? I asked Yukiko to open the back door, but she didn't know how to open it. So, that was out. So, I would just have to poop in the house...

But, where to poop? In the kitchen would be easy cleanup for the parents... so, no that is out. On the couch would make it easy for them to find, but no - I like to nap on the couch. Maybe in the hallway? Nah. Oh, I know... the perfect spot! Right in front of Deshi's crate! Maybe the parents will think he somehow got out of his crate and pooped and got back in his crate! Perfect! So, that is where I pooped.

Walkies and a surprise!

Mom took Yukiko, Deshi, and I for walkies today. We walked all around a couple of neighborhoods then on a sidewalk off of a somewhat busy street. While on that particular sidewalk I spotted a KONG bone toy. It was dirty and looked like it had been there on the sidewalk for quite awhile. Deshi and I both sniffed at it and Yukiko couldn't care less about it. Since it wasn't next to anyone's house and obviously didn't belong to any dog in particular Mom decided we could have the toy. She brought it home and it is soaking in the sink with hot water and liquid soap. I can't wait till we get to play with it!

On a related note about our walkie - while along that somewhat busy street Mom noticed in certain places there was broken glass from beer bottles. She was having to make us walk clear out of the way so we would not cut our feet. People littering and throwing glass onto a sidewalk irks Mom and us too. Why can't people dispose of their trash properly? Grrrrrr.
