Summer the little poodle mix

Here comes Summer!
the little poodle mix

Thursday -- 3:51 PM 8/2/2007

Summer's here. Quarterdeck likes her a lot. So does Beau. Starlight's a little tired of her, but she likes her too.

Starlight put herself into a crate where she figured nobody would bother her. Summer went in there too. Starlight growled and Summer didn't seem to understand. So I made Summer get out and I shut the door. Starlight knew it wasn't latched but Summer didn't, so Starlight was safe until she decided to come out.

While Beau and QD were tugging on a rope Summer was running around them and barking. Eventually they put down the rope and lay down. She ran circles and figure eights around them until they started grabbing at her. She thought that was wonderful. She egged them on to chase her more and more, and eventually Beau got too rough with her. Yike! And both big boy dogs stopped in their tracks. She was ready to have a time out, so they all had a lie down. The boys are so good with puppies and small dogs. They play as hard as they are invited to play, and if anybody says yike they all stop immediately.

We had a quiet night and Summer was ready for her breakfast. She won't eat in the crate yet, but she waited in her crate fairly patiently while I fed the others. then she came out and ate.

She found a toy to chew up and while she was working on it QD came to help. She told him off and he backed off and watched her. When she finally decided to wander off he got the toy. She's been biting off little chunks and leaving them in a pile. That's what it's for, according to all the dogs here. I think it was originally a large ball.

She'll be going home in a few hours.

She's gone home. She'll probably be back for a playdate in a few days.
