learning from her elder

Many of Chick’s adoring fans have inquired about how he’s doing with all this attention to his darling foster-sister. You should be tickled to know that he is doing just fine, and in fact, he is blossoming in his role as Big Brother. Their time together is still limited because fosterdad and I are over-cautious, but when they are together, Chick certainly is teaching Lollie the ways of the world. See here:

“you see kiddo, when you see the peanut butter on the counter you just have to play it cool at first, and then the second she turns her back . . .”

“whuh? no, we’re totally cool… no funny business going on in here . . .”

“bow to your partner . . . and promenade around the circle . . . now do-si-do”

“now make that face like you are in urgent need of the treat in her hand. it works every time.”

soccer dreams

 

Lollie wants to inform you that in her past life, she was a soccer player. She still dreams of soccer when she sleeps, and sometimes, she sleeps with soccer when she dreams.

 

 

lollie shakes it!

Just a quick video to show off what a genius-wonderdog Lollie is. I taught her this in about three minutes last night, after our evening walk. It’s incredible, how fast she learns.

Also- notice how her butt and back legs subtly slide backward as she sits in concentration. Think we should get her some rubber booties for traction?
