Norwood!

Please come play with Stumpy and her squeaky.

I was trying to get a better video and pictures for you but you are so impatient (typical ocd/acd)

Sam said...: That's one big squeaky toy. Is it one of the ones without any stuffing in it?

I giggled at OCD/ACD :); February 27, 2010 at 7:04 AM

Cyndi and Stumpy said...: Sam, I REALLY can't keep this boy. I am working with a BMD rescue, now, to get him to safety. OCD/ACD makes you giggle? Try living with it!

Stella, Good to see you able to comment, today! Stumpy loves her squeakers! I don't let her have them everyday because it makes her nuttier than ever. The Berner is laying on my feet right now. He's doing ok and in between bouts of pacing and vocalizing, wanting to escape, he's a nice calm boy and also seems to be housebroken. A huuuuuge plus!; February 27, 2010 at 12:15 PM
NAK and The Residents of The Khottage Now With KhattleDog! said...: What a fun video!
