How Do Your Mornings Start Out?...

WOW, Thank you for taking the time to come by My Page. How do your mornings start out?
Our household mornings start out with a very thoroughly thought out target of attack by none other then one four legged fur ball schnauzer by the name of K.C. One glace at her one would never suspect this dark eyed, silver coated sweetheart could plot such very devious, highly intelligent, tactfully implemented plans.

Her target by morning is the room my daughter and I share. After a midmorning nap Papa or Nana may be next. All day long K.C.’s targeted activities that use to be plotted against my daughter have turned where K.C. is the center of my daughter’s attention. The two entertain each other these days and no shortage of ideas in this household.

The dinner table conversations of the day’s activities wait till desert time. We had to make a pack no discussions are to start about K.C. till everyone has completed their meal. This dog is so hysterical we were never able to get through a meal because our faces hurt so badly from laughing.

Let me share a our morning festivities and enlighten you how I have learned to tame her 3 a.m. to 6 a.m. escapades to 6 a.m. and not a minute past by filling her up with food, water and a late night brisk walk just to try a tucker her out before I retired for the night.

Just before 6 a.m. she appears at the threshold of my bedroom door. I on my back, head cocked slightly to the door and eyes peeped because I can not resist watching her in action. Oh, not to forget to share but her tags on her collar jingle. Trying to work during the day I keep my ears tuned into my daughter’s where abouts when she leaves my side, Nana, Papa and the K.C. jingle. I know where ever K.C. is so is my daughter. It keeps them both out of trouble and out of the rooms they are not suppose to be in.

She appears at the door and begins scoping out the entire room. Once target in site her eyes are fixed and her face is intense. She carefully and quietly puts one foot in front of the other and each time stops so as to keep her collar from making the jingle. The closer she reaches her target the more her legs and body begins to shake. Closer, closer, head down, pearly whites open and target clenched tightly in mouth she retreats just as quietly as she entered but only more carefully. The excitement that has built up is so intense it’s about to explode as she desperately tries to contain herself.

One foot pass the threshold she is off and running like a heard of wild mustangs loose in the house. She is so pleased and delighted with her self all the excitment is loose and the stampede is going from one room to the other. She tosses the object from her grips and retrieves it like a well rehearsed choreographed dance move or her body scatters to the floor and turns in to a squirrelly rolling flips.

Minutes of fetching fun she returns to the scene, object still between the pearly whites, wet from slobber but so very excited to share her triumph of victory. I have owned and trained many dogs but never one as enthusiastic as this. I keep wondering if mornings of jumping, thrashing and icky wet faces will return to quite and one day of sleeping in one minute past 6 a.m.

I have handled, trained and owned many dogs but never so mischievous, daring and tactful. I keep saying I am going to research this type of dog but I keep convincing myself this would take the fun out of watching her. K.C. is a dog as long as the attention is on her is the best dog but left to her own devices she can think up some doozies to bring the attention to her.

What keeps your days interesting, festive or full of life? Send me an email, leave a comment on my page, call me or add me as a friend so we are only a click away. Let’s connect up and have a few laughs to break up the monotony of the day. Life is too short not to share!


Have a Powerful and Prosperous Day,
