tired boy

Poor Tug hasn't gotten his naps the past few days. Different things keep him up. Yesterday it was me going back and forth down the hallway removing junk from my room! Right this very minute he's standing by Mama's chair, still as a statue and staring up at her. He's so bored he probably just wants to get into her lap to sleep.

He also feels like a technology orphan. I got a handheld game system in late March and played it a lot for awhile. My sister and I also got some games for Mama so she's been doing it, too. Then I got my new notebook computer in mid-April and actually sit with it in my chair so he can't be in my lap. He stands and mopes. I offer to pet him but he's sulking about it and doesn't want to be petted while "that" thing in my lap!!

I forgot to mention...

I forgot to mention that the Tuggums' birthday was last week. Our boy turned four years old Wednesday!

I came home from work and sang "Happy Birthday" to him and Mama sang it a few minutes later. :)

Tug the Love Bug

Tug's been very clingy and lovey-dovey lately. He's Mama's little shadow and follows her around. He doesn't even nap without one eye being open for her moving out of the room to go somewhere without him. He's back to being velcro dog but he's also back to being the treat slut. Tug demands food some days- he sits or stands directly in front of you as still as a statue and stares at you...and stares at you...maybe he blinks...but mostly he just stares. I just call it Terrier Telepathy. He's very still and attentive to only the one person he's trying to coerce into doing his bidding. It's patience to the nth degree- who would believe that of a Terrier??
