Hi there,
(this part was written in late winter of 2011)
It's me again, Mahla. I call
myself Mahli now, and just wanted to update all of you about my situation. I am
mostly very well, but lately I do have one complaint: they really expect me to
go out when it rains!!! I'm not sure
what they are thinking, but I am sure they don't realise, that I get wet feet.
Unacceptable, but not all is lost yet. It turns out these humans are quite
smart and they learn quickly. The latest trick my dad learned: as soon as I sit
in front of him he produces a yummy treat... but that's not all! As soon as I
go to any door (front or back) they open it for me... any time of the day or
night. At night they say strange things sometimes and I am far too well
mannered to repeat the #@*^! words. But don't worry I am working on that.
We have been to the beach today with my friend Jarrah. We always pick
her up when we go to the beach. It’s lot's of fun, but I just can't see the
point of putting my big toe into the water. Jarrah doesn't seem to mind, as a
matter of fact..I think she even likes it????!
In the morning we usually go to the doggy park. I have two friends
there: Sunny and Jasper.
When Mum sits in her rocking chair in the evening and we watch TV, I
like to stir things up a bit. Once I
finish with her I like to go over to Dad and entertain him. He likes laying on
the sofa and offers a huge area of offense. So many yummy features to chew on:
the feet, legs, hands, and if all this doesn't provoke a reaction, a lick over
his face always does the trick.
(now we are in the new year of 2012)
I am so much more grown up now--no more chewing! That seems to delight
mum and dad, but I still can't stop collecting 'stuff' from around the house
and garden. I do enjoy sleeping with mum's shoes in my bed or dad's underwear
or socks. The newest and funnest entertainment is to collect twigs and leafs,
preferably with bugs on them and bring them inside onto my favorite place: the
lounge. I am shredding everything to a pulp and mum seems to love to pick it
up. I just have to keep her entertained! Mum made it extra comfy on the lounge
with a special blanket and some smaller cushions. I sometimes think I've gone
to heaven. Having said that I have another complaint: the food situation is not
satisfactory! I am hungry 24/7! And when I hear things like "You are a bit
chubby!" I look around and have no idea who they are talking to. Food is
soooo yummy that I would do anything for it.
