Here is my news in a Sijo:
Our six-month Boston puppy, Kenny, arrived on Saturday He is not house trained, nor crate trained, so don’t turn your back But he’s so cute, cuddly and loveable that we’ll keep him!
Only once have we seen his ears straight up!
No, this is not him. He’d never tolerate a hat! But ain’t she cute? We love Boston Terriers!!
He loves that chew toy… and stretches out full length to get it! That’s a long body for a six-month old! He already weighs nearly 12 pounds. Gonna be a big boy!
Oh, he’s squirming… Time to take him out. But it’s snowing and ccccold! Oh Kenny, I don’t want to go out either! But we better. See ya later.
Dogs are worth their weight in gold. The very best thing is that if you love them they are exactly the same everyday even if you tell them about Trump or Biden.
Wonderful! It sounds like you and Bob are adjusting to Kenny quite well. With time and patience, he’ll figure out what he needs to better take care of. Colleen says to give him a pat on the head from her.
