Trouble

Hey friends. Have you ever done something you thought was a really good thing and your people just got mad at you? That happened to me today.

Mom let me out for a potty break and watched as I did my thing and sniffed around. She turned around for a second to pick up something and then I came trotting back up to the door. With a present. That was dead. Maybe that's where I went wrong. Maybe Mom likes her presents alive. Anyway, Mom was not fond of my present :( She kept saying "Drop it. DROP IT!" And I just looked at her like, "Drop what?" Then Dad came out and Mom got me to chase her and I did drop it. Dad inspected while Mom held on to me. At first he thought it was a mole, but eventually decided it was a baby bunny rabbit. There are sometimes bunnies in our yard, but we have never seen babies around. The neighbors have a garden in their backyard, so we think that's why he was around. Luckily, they think it was already dead, so I didn't get in trouble for that.

Mom ran out and got some kind of doggy mouth cleaner junk that tastes terrible. She subjected me to that torture (I thought water-boarding was illegal. I'm calling my Congress-dog) and says I'll have to get it again later, since I mostly wouldn't let her open my lips to put it on and she got it all over my lips. I'm also not allowed to kiss her for awhile. I thought I was doing something good and I end up punished. Sigh.
