Here he is, our Arizona-born-boy, at one year old!
And here are a few comments from Tuc himself:
"I like standing at the back door. Sometimes I even jump so high my head goes above the top of the door (that's Kenya next to me). "
"I like to make sure everybody knows I have a bone, when I have one."
"I have a LONG tongue, too"
"And it flaps when I run and climb steps."
"I like watching things... but I still have the attention span of a gnat (I'm just a puppy still)."
"I try really hard to listen."
"But I can't keep my tail still."
"See... I'm really just one big happy boy!"
"I'm a whole year old now. I have a really LONG body. My brain will catch up to my body soon enough. For now, I'm all adolescent. Oh, and did I mention I really like bones?"
"I love bones almost as much as I love people. But not quite. I really, really love my people!"
"And I really love my pack."
"I'm bigger than all of them now, but I'm still an imp. They put up with me most of the time. (This is me, on the left, with Pinot and Kenya, watching Dad in the basement; I'm still afraid of the steps.) Mom and Dad put up with me most."
"But I'm a loveable galoot."
And he's our galoot. I wouldn't have it any other way. :D
'Til next time,
Joan
