25 Things about Mosrite, by Molly

1. He loves to chew soft things.
2. He is the quietest when he is doing things he shouldn't be doing.
3. He is the calmest when he is tired or sick.
4. He knows that we will not play with him when we are playing DS or on the phone or computer.
5. He has been chewing on the same bone Shain gave him since the week after we brought him home.
6. He needs to be right next to us at all times. (Right now he is laying underneath the chair I am sitting in.)
7. He loves my dad. He cannot control himself when my dad is around, probably because my dad is the only one who really gets down on his level.
8. He also loves going to Sanger, where he gets fed bright and early by Tammy and JD and gets to run around in freedom all day long.
9. He doesn't understand why Justin and Kelly's dog, Mr. Roper, hates him so much, and still tries to get him to play.
10. He will eventually be the size of a horse.
11. He likes to eat conversation hearts, tortillas and ice cubes. He does not like bananas or potatoes.
12. We CANNOT break him of digging tissues out of the trash can and shredding them.
13. He loves to play fetch, and since we live in an apartment, this consists of John throwing a toy from the living room down the hall into the second bedroom so it's far enough away for him to run and get it.
14. He once jumped over the couch in a full leap.
15. He hates plastic bags, cardboard boxes, skateboards and aluminum foil.
16. He has a very big bark, and loves to bark out of the back door to all of the neighborhood dogs. We always wonder what they are talking about.
17. He hates John's RC car. He will go from hiding, to chasing it, to running from it, to trying to bite it's wheels.
18. Sometimes TV or music will really catch his eye or ear. He will pause to watch or listen.
19. When he needs to go out, he will go touch his nose to the front door knob.
20. He is tall enough now that he can reach his front paws on the kitchen counter. He has so far eaten a pizza crust, a buttered hamburger bun and a whole chocolate cake.
21. He knows that getting a treat out means it is time to go get in his box.
22. He doesn't understand why my mom doesn't pet him. She seems to be warming up to him, but I always think they will be distant friends.
23. He always comes in to check on me when John takes him out in the morning. If I am not at one side of the bed, he goes around to the other.
24. He has chewed through 3 really cute leashes that I bought him from Target. I finally agreed to leave him on a chain leash, even though I think it looks mean.
25. He is an adorable floppy puppy, who has surprisingly taught me a lot!
