Too much partying for me, dude

Too much partying for me, dude

We celebrate a couple of family birthdays on Sunday. I always take Misha with me if I can because she needs the socialization. And, there is nothing like the tired a dog gets from getting too much attention all day. This is Misha on Tuesday–two days after the party. She was so tired she didn’t even want to go for her walk.

What would you say if this is the way your dog greeted you? This is how Misha greets me when I am not paying attention to her.  I’ll be sitting on the couch.  Misha will run in front of me, throw her head to the ground, and stick her butt in the air.  She looks back to make sure I see it.  If she is not pointing directly at me, she’ll scoot over so she is. A couple of times,…
