babysitting...

it's funny how you can have two dogs of the same breed be so different... 

the first time we babysat, was for a yellow lab named duke... we knew him since he was a puppy and he was very low key and quiet... i guess he grew out of it... almost a year later, he's overweight and has a ton of energy... didn't know any commands either... maybe sit... we'd take him to the park and run off his energy... since he was obese, the first time we did this, he threw up... even though he was fun it was very tiring to have him around... 

just this past weekend we watched another yellow lab, buckley.... he was older, yet still had a good amount of energy... he was trained as well... he was quite entertaining... barked when he wanted to be let out, barked when he was ready to come in.... he was fine around the kitties even though prada wasn't having anything to do with him... so her bratty self spent the weekend in the garage...

having a nice doggie in the house felt good... reminded me of what it was like to have a well behaved dog again...
