1) Ha ha...I was rooting for the dog and she didn't disappoint.

2) We've had similar problems with baby gates and even our backyard fence. Oh, and watch out for kitchen chairs...they lead puppies to kitchen tables and all the goodies on them.

3) I could have told you that wouldn't work. Only if you put a top on it. :) Got any wire left from the fencing?? :)

4) I love how she just flops onto the floor at the end!

5) We are buying a taller one tomorrow that we can buy a top for.

6) yeah the best thing I had going for me when I got a puppy was my big laundry room. It was big enough for him to walk around and had linoleum. I don't believe in keeping dogs in crates all day. I think it makes them deranged!

7) Cute! Dylan said, "Annie" about 10 times before bed last night. I think she misses her! Maybe we will see you tonight after work.

8) Erica, we thought the same thing, so we keep our dogs in the kitchen. That's where we learned about baby gates and kitchen chairs. They don't seem as crazy when we get home as they did in the crate.

9) Niki, Denny used to do the same thing when he was very little. They would try to explain to him that I was on the phone and his first word would be "MATTIE" (my dog at the time). He loved to greet her when he saw her, even if she turned and swiped him in the face after he petted her head.

10) This is so cute.Richard and I watched it twice. She sure is a pretty puppy.

11) ohh my goodnesssssssss. love her :)
