TomTom Update

Sorry for the absence. I have been very busy dealing with my new miniature bro, Tom. Sometimes we are a handful for Mom. Like Friday morning when Mom was so tired and trying to rush off to work. She went to let us out to do our business but I bolted out the door and straight for the pond (AKA goose toilet)! I have not done this in a while because I'm usually pretty obedient and listen to Mom. She was only able to catch me when I finally stopped dashing all over the place to poop.

From experiences like these, she has realized there is a direct correlation between how obedient I am and how much pent up psycho-terrier energy is stored inside me, just waiting to be released. For example, after I get to run around and wrestle with my bro, I am as docile and compliant as Lassie. But in the mornings, when I get let out of my crate after being in there for several hours, I am more akin to an ADHD kindergartener on a sugar rush.

Mom says I have become a better dog since Tom came along. Tom needs to lighten up a bit though. He is possessive of bones and treats with me but not with the humans. When Tom is chewing on something and I come over to check it out, he does this Grrrrrrr rrrrr rrrr noise that drives me nutso! I start jumping all around and barking at him which makes him even madder so he starts yipping at me. Then that makes me even more crazy so I start running all around at top speed with Tom chasing me, bitting my heels. It's quite a show! It makes Mom and Dad mad because of all the loud noise so then they get in on the action by yelling at us. We could have a sitcom. Mom keeps trying to get our silliness on film but usually she is too occupied with trying to shut us up to remember to get the camera rolling.

Tom is a funny little guy. He LOVES to licklicklick. His teeth are funny looking so Mom thinks that is why he has his tongue hanging out a lot. (Tom had 2 teeth extracted before we got him and his bottom teeth are crooked.) When ever he comes up to you, expect lots of stinky kisses. He has very stinky breath. Mom has bought all sorts of different things to freshen it up. No progress on that yet...

More to come on Tom! Here are some silly pics! Tom has a favorite nap spot.
