Christmas and More...

We had company over the past weekend. Our friend was relaxing in the family room with a glass of white wine. She placed it on the carpet along with her large gold hoop ear rings. Sierra thought that was quite generous, and had a few licks of the wine without spilling a drop. Our friend then noticed her ear rings were gone, and Sierra had something in her mouth. When I tried to take it out, she swallowed. As we searched for the ear rings, Sierra obviously had second thoughts about the deal, and brought up the ear rings along with her dinner, and I presume the wine. Looks like she is going to be a real party girl!

Sierra seems to be liking her new jacket, complete with reflective strip. When Melanie takes her to university classes, she notices that Sierra behaves much better with the jacket on. Here is a picture of Sierra practicing her down and eye gaze, with a bacon and cheese twist as a distraction. At home this seems to be easy, but with other dogs in the picture, well that is another story...

Christmas was fun for all. Sierra loved her gifts, and found it hard to believe we would not only let her in the living room on the hardwood, but also that we would let her have the good stuff instead of the usual leave it!

And just like most youngsters, the paper and boxes were the most fun of all.

Wow that was tiring. I think I'll just crash on the new throw and dream about what trouble I can get into next...
