Mia's Growing Up


Mia had a really good week - no calls to the vet, no incidents at daycare, her paws are looking great, and just a little weird (still scared sometimes) behavior.  My little girl is growing up!  She even got her very first bone this week.  It's so funny how fast she seemed to go from being a full out puppy to a somewhat more mature dog.  She's still playful and crazy, but just in a different way.  She's so tired these days from daycare (they now have a bigger play area) that after she eats dinner, she plays with us for Maybe 30 minutes and then goes to take a really long nap by herself in her crate.  I wanted to make it more appealing to her so I bought a really fluffy bed and lined it all with soft blankets and it's also covered with blanket.  This was the best and worst idea.  It's so comfortable to her now that she likes it a little bit too much.  She rarely naps outside of it now, and at night when we're vegging out in the family room watching tv Mia heads into her crate in the office for a snooze.  I miss her at night... I've become needy for her company.

For Christmas I want to get her a more comfortable bed for the family room, maybe that will help... I don't know how much you can pamper a dog but I'm just about there.  It's not like the bed she has in there now is Uncomfortable or anything, it's just normal.  I spend more time thinking about how I can make her happier than I do about anything else at home - I may have a problem.  I never ever thought that I was going to be like this with a pet, but then again once I get attached to something I start to become a little bit crazy about it... but what's the harm in that?
