Fun with puppies

I was going to write a very informative post about puppies. I was going to include information like why a puppy or a dog will always pull against the leash when they aren't used to it.

I was also going to include helpful information on teaching a puppy to come when called and to walk nicely on a leash. But then I got distracted looking at all the puppy pictures I've taken recently. Pictures like this one.


And I started coming up with silly ideas, like fun games you can play with your puppy.

WHAT?? My tail is gone?!?

Doesn't he look concerned?

Oh wait...there it is. Whew.


Yep, I'm very easily amused.  So then these next pictures started me thinking of fun things you can tell people about your puppies.

Cover the puppy's eyes and tell people that the puppy is playing hide-and-go-seek with his friends. Then start counting out loud.

I think it'd be a great way to get people to leave you alone if they were bothering you. 

Here's another option.  Tell everyone that your puppy is very religious.
This works best if your puppy has a double white cross on her chest.

I also came up with some fun things you can do to your puppies.

Give a puppy a whole bunch of peanut butter so his mouth gets stuck closed.

Then tell him jokes to make him smile.

Just to be clear, I didn't really do that to any puppies. The puppy just naturally looked like that. Really.

And with all the entertainment the puppy pictures provided, I never got back to the informative part of the post. I'm sorry. I'm easily distracted. Maybe tomorrow I'll come up with an informative post.  But probably not.

That is what my mom calls chicken disease. Seen the shirt, "My friends like I have ADD, I don't know...oh look a chicken". :-)

Wags!

Those were all so cute and funny! And I totally believe you about the puppy just being smiley on his own because we have a cat like that. Some animals just naturally smile a lot! Those were all super cute puppies too - but really, how can you go wrong with puppies!

Having fun with puppies is the best!

Our little Rat Terrier is named "Cross"--it was the Shelter name because as a puppy she had a crisp white "cross" on her forehead. The black faded to grey, her hair grew out but the name stuck--in spite of the fact that I tried to change it. She was a Shelter mascot for awhile!

Another fun puppy game to play is when people ask, "What breed of puppy is that?" Tell them he/she is a "Cunardly"--as in, You can-hardly tell what he/she might be!

Great post and adorable photos!
