i picked her up from PADS today after work, and she was up in the office sleeping under the desk. she was so funny.....nothing in the world was going to make her get up! while i loaded my car w/her kennel and food, the PADS intern convinced skeena to get up and made their way down the driveway to my car. skeena was so sweet, plodding along...."do i have to?"
our weekend adventure had just started :-) the training centre is only 10 minutes from home, but she managed to fall asleep within the first 30 seconds. by the time i parked the car, she was fast asleep and i had to drag her out of the car. she managed to rustle up some energy just when we got into the condo. swell :P but i took care of that w/a 20 minute walk around the 'hood. by the time we got home, and loaded ourselves back into the car, she was ready to zonk out!
we had our first outing together.....we went to meet chris at the shop, and then we had dinner at earl's. to the men out there.....if you're looking for a way to attract the women, just get a puppy! the hostesses at earl's just flocked to skeena. our table was almost at the back of the restaurant, so making our way past all the other tables was an adventure in itself. she's very lazy, and she was literally sitting down every 2 steps. i wanted to celebrate by the time chris and i got to sit down! skeena was very well behaved, and had a snooze under the table. i had to keep tucking her paws in so she wouldn't get stepped on!
we dropped by my parents' house as well, and again, she was so lazy and tired that i had to carry her out of the jeep. and then she just stood still.
so that was pretty much day 1 w/skeena. she's absolutely exhausted right now, and she's been sleeping on chris' lap for the past 20 minutes. one more stroll around the block tonight, and then we'll be ready to go to sleep. i'm absolutely exhausted....i tell ya though....this is probably very similar to having a baby, except at least a baby wears a diaper, and you don't have to worry about stepping in pee/poo :P
