Wally’s Great Adventures (18). hello everyone, wally here. quick update before my afternoon nap. dad says that i can stop chewing on every damn thing anytime i was ready. cords. labels at the bottom of couches. legs of chairs. floor rugs. door stops. towels. tennis shoes. baskets. bags, oh bags, plastic, leather, paper, any kind of bag. floor plants. xmas tree (natch). but the best, dads draw strings on hoodies and sweatpants, dads slippers, dads socks, and dads fingers. and his giant hand. dads like to tease me with his finger, poking me, flipping me on my back, this game is fun for like 3 seconds and then i chomp down on him, break his skin and wont let go. dad yelps like a giant baby puppy, i bark at him and tell him to try manning-up. he mumbles something about biting the hands that feeds you. Anyhoo, its nap time. TGIF everyone. Have a good weekend. Wally.
āTime to man upā š
I know! But those pointy little teeth hurt!
So cute, so vicious š
Tell your dad you are just a puppy and need to chew on things. Perhaps he will buy you a bone to chew on one day. Maybe you’ll get one for Christmas and you won’t have to chew on his toes!
Darlene, you are the 2nd now to suggest bones. More bones. They MUST taste better than pine trees!
Get him the small size good for you dog bones. That will give a few minutes with focused attention.
More Bones. You are right! On my shopping list. Thanks Melinda!
I’m sure Daddy needs your support and guidance, at this age this is what his draw strings are for. Good job Wally.
Monster pokes you with his finger to flip you on your back? Not nice. Trip him.
Ok Sawsan. I’m on it.
I want to hear about how you successfully trip The Monster next post. Let me know if you need help plotting.
Daddy used to pick on me too. Because like you, I’m little and helpless.
Daddy stopped picking on me since you arrived.
dad just told me to be wary of the word of gypsy’s. I don’t know what it means but thought I should share.
See, he’s picking on me!
I feel you Wally
let’s stick together sawsan. I have your back.
Yes, let’s stick together.
Night night for now ā¤ļø
omg. so cute!!!
He is!
Wally, first, you’re so cute it should be illegal.ā„ļø Secondly, your biggest bro, Eric, must find your doings (hilariously) familiar?š
Funny! Eric coming home from a trip today. Can’t wait to see him!
Enjoy!
not your fault you don’t have anything to chew on that won’t get you in trouble. hopefully dad will catch on and bring a few options into your house. the nerve of him!)
I know, right?!?!?!
He’s so intent on his work. Isn’t it funny how he can be concentrating so hard on biting that foot (you can tell because his whole face is wrinkled), and yet he knows not to bite tooooo hard. Such a cutie. Better watch those slippers! I once had a pair like that (before we got Emma).
So.true Anneli. The intensity of the focus.
That’s a good trait.
Generalizing from our dog, I’d say the cutest pups have the sharpest teeth. Thank your stars he naps so much!
His teeth are so sharp!
That face stops me in my tracks and I could look at him all day! And those baby teeth will fall out soon enoughā¦
it is the FACE!
Ahhh, the chewing phaseā¦I remember it well. As a young lad, Beau chewed on *everything,* including our granite steps! This, too, shall pass, Wally. Tell dad itās just your way of reminding him to stay firmly āin the moment.ā šš¤
granite steps! ouch!
I know, right?! Why mess with a nice dental dinosaur when you can gnaw on a rock? š
Before I traveled over to your site I was looking at small dogs to adopt. After reading your post i know it really is not a good idea for us yet. I think I am just lonely for my Grand children but them i can give back to parents but a dog is harder to give back and I would not to inflict a second adoption on a poor dog. Thanks for post. Your dog is so cute though.
Thank you. Good decision. It is an enormous amount of work and 10 year+ commitment. That’s why so many give up their dogs because they don’t think through the effort (and cost)!
We are 75 years old so if we would get a dog now it would become our childrens issue, thanks for the sound advice I will just go somewhere that has puppies and get my cuddle fix.
Sounds like a great plan Betty.
You are so right. I would LOVE (read this in BOLD!) to have another dog but we both are just too often away and have nobody to look after a pup. So I cuddle every dog across the planet that (which? Oh helpā¦. ) comes across my way. We must think of them and their ārest of their time with usā. Iām weirdly the only member of my family with a fierce dog love; all others are cat lovers. I tolerate them and would never throw one out of my home but I can perfectly well do without.
BONES is the word you are looking for. Wally needs to be able to chew on something thatās good for his teeth AND his stomach. Man, this isnāt your first puppy, you should know that?! And Wally would be occupied for a good part of an hour or three, during which he wouldnāt nibble your fingers.
Laughing! Still laughing!
