Puppy needs disobedience.

Well just an update on the training. He was the most well behaved dog during and after the trainers left. However, now......he's mad. Very mad. He's on a leash with us in the house (unless we're playing) and he does. not. like. it. It's been a parenting lesson to us. I'm tempted to send him to my friend Erin's elementary classroom up in Omaha, for children that cannot function or behave properly. He needs a beating.

Come to find out, though not surprising, Dave is the sympathetic one, and I'm the enforcer. I relate it to the fact that I'm the primary caregiver to Oscar most of the time, so sometimes I'm about ready to kill him. I did about kill him last night with the scissors after I found a large tuft of wool missing out of my new rug and had to cut the wool to make it look normal again. Dave protected him. We've had some 'come to Jesus' parenting talks, about how he's like a toddler and he's walking all over us. It's exhausting.....this is why we don't have children.

Completely random but funny thought for the day: I was walking through our waiting room the other day to hear a 5 year old try to explain to an innocent volunteer, around my age, ''about how those tubes in my head work to wash my brain." It was quite amusing. She had a perplexed look on her face. Love it.
