Up Nort With Zippy

Hey, Zippy here!


Well, things are settling in around here. Well..........it isn't really settling down because things get pretty wild here sometimes. Those two big dogs step on me sometimes. This morning I got up close to that girl dog and just tried sampling her tail. She didn't get too upset too quickly, but I didn't get to do that for very long. She gets more upset with me than the boy dog does especially when she is working on some rawhide. It's cool.......I'll work it out.

Then sometimes, my Northern Mom lets me sit up on the couch with her. Mostly I fool around and chew on something or on her, but after a while, I get tired. She is always there and doesn't let me sleep by myself on the couch.

I like going outside with the other doggies. We can be out their by ourselves without getting into trouble. The other day, the grass got shorter. I have no idea how that happened, but I can't hide in it anymore. Out there, I can always find something to chew on. I seem to go out there lots of times. I have no idea why that happens, but Mom usually carries me or gets upset if I don't follow the gang.

Boy, I almost forgot, Thursday night I went to school for the first time. I really did a good job. You could almost say I was the star of the show. But......at the end of the time that we were there, they had something called "play time". It meant that everyone got wild and ran all over the place. I really did not want to take part in all of that wildness. Those other three dogs had legs that were longer than I am tall. I never could have kept up with them. The leader lady said that sometimes on the first night dogs are shy. Well, I am not shy, but I just watched.
Maybe next week I will take part. I am learning all my lessons because Mom gives me food when I do what she wants. That is way cool!!

Mom is a little worried about all the mess in the house because all of our toys are everywhere, but she handles it pretty well.

I am out of here!!!! If anyone sees my Texas G-Mom or my Texas Mom, tell them that Zippy says, "Happy Mothers' Day!!! and give them a big slobbery kiss from Zippy!!
