Cute and Playful

Little Miss Flo is cute and playful. She will need a new name because Flo is too close to "no." Since she's such a playful and curious girl, I ended up saying "no" quite a bit. I don't want her getting her name and "no" confused.

I haven't gotten any shots of her playing yet, but boy, does this girl LOVE to play. She has pulled pretty much all the toys out of the toy basket and strewn them all over the place. She likes to take small stuffed animals and shake them and fling them in the air. She does that with some balls too. She is quite energetic too. She keeps going and going. She settle for a little nap then not after too awful long, she's back up playing again.

I don't know if it's totally her personality or just that things are still so new. She also REALLY likes to chase my cat too. I am staying on top of her about that. I don't think she means any harm and that she just wants to play. But I have told in no uncertain terms that we don't chase kitties, especially almost 17 year old kitties.

She likes to go outside and paws at the back door. When she does, I take her out, even if we've just come in from outside. I want her to know that I understand her signal. I love it when a dog figures out how to tell me they want to go outside, even if it's just that they want to go out.

I think this little girl is smart. Once she works through her shyness she'll be easy to train. She'll be a great girl for a family prepared for a playful active dog. As you can see, she does know how to relax too :)
