Learning how to bark

So...very...tired.


The kitchen is now part of my domain -- soon all of it will be mine!


Someone is getting bigger by the day! About two days ago, Dudley learned how to jump up on the 16" high wood divider in the dining room so he can peek into the kitchen. He will start to practice barking and wag his tail if someone is in the kitchen. This continues until you enter the dining room. Classic puppy manipulation! His bark is pretty loud, and he even seems to startle himself while he's doing it.

He also does this when I'm preparing his lunch. He'll bark quite happily and lick his chops watching me. I like to think he's learned to sing for his food.

Dudley went on a big car ride to his Daddy's office today, so he was pretty pooped when I got home. A friend came over to see him, but he ended up curled up on my lap after a little bit of playing.
