Baptism

Those who steal must wash away their sins. This was shot as I screamed "Drop it!!" and jumped about stomping my wet feet in glee. Then of course I performed a proper speech repenting her bad doings. It was short, pretty much consisting of "Stop doing that."

Today Kylee ate the phone. The last of the only phone we have, which could have been a mercy killing, as it was a piece of shit since it's moment of going to factory. Regardless, she ate the damn thing and when I asked why she calmly explained that she was simply trying to call one of us and no one could "hear her now." To punish and express frustration she completely taught it a lesson in being useless.

I have a few people and items to send her way if she wants to be in charge of uselessness destruction.

I've come to an idea that I'm still tossing around. We have been thinking for a few months that she is afraid of the dark. I think I want to retract that. She's not afraid of it, she can't SEE in it. Watching very carefully I have seen her drop something inches from her in a darkened setting and she goes nuts sniffing for it. I hand it to her and she hops in elation "Oh my god, thank you so much I thought it was forever gone." I did this a few times. Same result.

We had been leaving the garage light on for her and there had been no inside accidents. The bulb burned out and instead of going outside, she relieves herself at the last point of light. I'm not certain, but I think my puppy is broken.

Send it back, newer, better, SMALLER puppy! I will have no defective puppy! She smiles warmly at me and raises an eyebrow wondering if I'm serious. Ok ok fair enough, Mama is decfective too, but she has a job - so take that!
