[irl] Today Kanela learned the second step in Burying Things

step one: dig hole

she was SO PROUD of herself when she figured that part out six months ago that she came inside, demanded we follow her, and lead us to her newly minted hole and even gave us a demonstration of how she diggy diggied

step two: put thing in hole

today i found her brand new dumpling toy outside, and she was very happily throwing it around. when I picked it up it was COVERED in fresh dirt, which i can only assume is bc she tried putting it in her hole and was so happy that she started throwing it around

jfjvjf Rika that's adorable

funnily enough she HAS worked out step three: bury thing, but

not in The Hole

instead she puts stuff on open surfaces like blankets and starts shovelling the fabric with her nose to cover it up

behold, the dumb baby

I'm so excited to pick up her new sister next week

y'all are getting a second dog?!

YES, her little half-sister, same dad same breeder!

BITTY

Awww baby

needs banana for scale

I'll be taking a million photos of her in my lap when we pick her up

Oh cuuuuute

She is learning how to dog!

Li'l sis really does have that 'teddy bear' vibe going on. So much fluff!

Winnie skipped one and two, she does three quite often. Or shove toys/chews between couch cushions and cry when she can't get them.

Dogs are so delightful.
