Dakota and the Run In with the Reindeer

We are in the Holiday season

now once you make it through

Halloween.

With that I have to share a story

with you.

Dakota don't like water....that

includes RAIN.

One year in Dec. many years ago

leading up to Christmas we had 

several days of  rain.

Dakota did not like going out to pee.

He held it for a long time one

day when it was pouring.

He pretty much was crossing his

legs.

I made him go out.

He was not happy with me but

once on the porch he ran out.

He hugged the porch keeping him

under the eve of the house.

Keep in mind that when peeing

THE KING

has to have a certain spot.

I have seen him smell dozen

of pieces of grass before finding the

right one.

So.....wanting to find that right piece

he ran from the porch to the big

tree in the front yard.

I guess the bare branches gave him

enough coverage...

go figure!

I was standing at the screen watching

just to be sure he went

and I saw him look at the 

reindeer in the yard.

I knew that thought, I threw

open the door to yell

NO

when he lifted his leg and 

peed.

I heard a yelp, and here he comes running!

It shocked him!

I love him so much but I am sorry,

I had to laugh. 

In the mist of laughing I called

my mom to tell her.

She told me to stop laughing cause

she could not understand me!

Poor baby!

Thanks for stopping in,
