- When everyone is in a bad mood in the morning (dog, Eve, dad) I somehow buffer that energy (take in, usurp, soak in, I don’t know) and end up feeling exhausted by 8am!
- Nuoska/Arlo (Alan calls him Nuoskarlo) doesn’t like the rain and doesn’t like the feel of wet grass on his paws.
- Nouska/Arlo won’t do proper bathroom breaks when he won’t walk on the grass and twelve walks a day don’t make a difference if he won’t take care of business!
- Nouska/Arlo is very, very naughty when he is bored and/or needs to use the bathroom
- Nouska/Arlo is very, very annoying when his is naughty!
- Lex is not very good at supervising the dog when the two of them are home alone together.
- Nouska/Arlo likes to eat books and Legos. The children are not very happy with him tonight.
- It is wonderful to have kind and thoughtful neighbors who are willing to help with advice and proper training collars.
- Nuoskarlo is still a pretty sweet dog, he just takes a bit more patience. I need baby sign language for the dog!
- A glass (or three) of wine is helpful after a day like today!
