My life by Finnegan

It's been awhile.

Whew!! I haven't been here in awhile. Boy, I think I'm almost all grown up now. I'm 16 months old, and holding at 90 lbs. I'm in Novice class in obedience. Some of the stuff we have to do is really hard. Like when my Dad tells me to stay, and last night, he went out of the room!!! Only for a short time, but it kind of scared me, cause I didn't know where he was! But, he told me to stay, so I did.
We've had a lot of this cold white stuff they call snow. I really like it!! It's fun to play in. I really like to eat it, but it makes me have to go to the bathroom a lot. But when it gets warm, the ground gets all smushy and squishes between my toes. Then I have to have my feet wiped when I go in the house, and go down into the basement and sit for a minute. Then I get to come back up and Mom gives me a cookie!!! Gotta go, more later.

Finn :0)

still bad!!

Well, I'm really in the doghouse now. It's been so rainy here, that I just have all of this energy that I have no outlet for. Soooo, yesterday, I ventured down the basement steps. I've never done that by myself before, it's really scary down there. So many big noisy things. By the bottom of the steps, I found the most delicious things. Some smelled like MOM, and some smelled like DAD. I took one of the Dad things, It was really good leather with strings and stuff. I took it back upstairs in the kitchen, and just started chewing! It was so good!!!
When MOM came home, she yelled at me " he's going to kill you!!" What does that mean? Is it bad???
Mom took me outside and let me run around my yard with my big jolly ball. I just love to shake it back and forth.

note from MOM: Finnegan chewed the back out of a pair of his DAD's $150 leather work boots. He didn't get killed. :0)

I was bad.

It was rainy and wet yesterday, so when my neighbor friend, Toni came to let me out to potty while Mom & Dad were at work, she put me back in the house instead of letting me stay outside in my pen and play. Yeah, I had my frozen kong with all the goodies in it to eat, but i just wanted to play outside. It made me kind of mad, so I grabbed my leash from the table and chewed on it. When MOm came home, she was kind of mad at me for chewing the leash. I had chewed on it before, and she had put that ducky tape on it. But now, she said it can't be fixed anymore, and threw it away. Then this morning, before I even went out to potty, I got sick in the kitchen. Some pieces of the leash came right out of my mouth!! I really felt alot better after that. I guess I shouldn't chew on things that aren't made for chewing. :-{

Bad dog Finn.
