My daughter’s dog and I don’t get along. At all.
For starters, she barks incessantly, even maniacally at the slightest noise. I can alter my voice while in another room, and she’ll literally bark herself into hysteria at the thought that perhaps a person who looks like me but talks differently has snuck into her home to steal her dogfood.
I have often threatened her with a swift and self-satisfying death.
However, for 2008 (or as long as I can take it), I have resolved to be kind to Fancy.
The next few days will be relatively easy. I’ll be out of town until the new year while she is still at home being dog-sat by the Morgans.

that’s why you should never get a dog as big as or smaller than a football. small dogs are my nemesis as well

Poor Morgan family!!! It’s good that we don’t live close enough to dog-sit. Your dad would kill her and conduct services before you return. : )

Good luck. You will need it. At least the first few days will be easy.

So far so good… Being separated by the entire state of Texas does wonders for toleration.

lol I’d have to be a state away to get along with a dog like that too. My sister has a little “yappy” kind of dog that i actually like for the most part… but she’s fairly old. I hated her when she was young! So insane!! When we get a dog I told Clayton I want to go to the pound, get a DOG, not a puppy, and pray for it to be young enough to be fun, but old enough to not be psychotic. Good luck with your quest to become “Dog’s Best Friend.”

Let me get this straight.
Sometimes you alter your voice, get down on all fours and eat dog food?
I think I would bark too.

I found your blog while looking up chihauhau diarrhea. lol. Your blog is great. I have a chi, his name is Monte and he does everything that your Fancy does with one exception…I assume that Fancy is a female. Monte is male and does the “man thing”. In front of guest. In the middle of our living room. So see? You have a reason to like Fancy now, because she doesn’t do the “man thing” in front of guests. Happy New Year, and I wish you much luck with your New Year’s resolution. We have had Monte for 2 years, and so far, when my husband isn’t calling him Hector, he is threatening to use him for target practice.
