Bailey

Today was a snow day for me....no work and no school. My brother and I went, with our dog Bailey, to Griner Park. We have these crazy carpets and we can get going pretty fast. Well, there was no way that Bailey would get on the crazy carpets but he loved chasing us down the hill and then jumping all over us when we got to the bottom. I guess he was having a lot of fun because when my brother and I went to take him home he got this really pouty look on his face and didn't want a whole lot to do with us. It was really kinda funny.
Last summer a friend and I took our dogs to the lake. Bailey loves to swim!!! Even more than chasing crazy carpets. We were there for a couple of hours and then when we were ready to go it was like Bailey was mad at us. He sat in the back seat and pouted almost the entire ride home.
He's a great dog and I love him to pieces but he's not without his quirks. He hasn't learned yet that male dogs lift a leg to pee....he still squats. Also, when he is confused or afraid or any number of other emotions he pees....all over the floor. And then there is his ball. Anyone who has been over to my house has seen that ball. He will not play with any other toy....just that stupid red ball. Last summer I brought Bailey to church in the park so of course his ball had to come along. When I dropped him off at home both Bailey and I forgot his ball in the car. I headed out to Vancouver for the day with my friends and didn't realize his ball was still in the car. When I got home my parents told me that he had been looking around for his ball all day and then moping and whining when he couldn't find it. So pathetic!
