Life with Lily

Life with Lily is... hectic, to say the least. She has very definite ideas about what the world should and should not be like. Needless to say, we disagree on several major points:

- Whether or not she should be allowed on the couch
- If biting at people is truly necessary
- That a harness has to go ON before one can use it to go on a walk
- That the puppy is attached to the leash, not the human
- That pants are for wearing, not chewing
- That naptime should last at least an hour, not fifteen minutes

I'm pretty sure you can guess whose ideas are whose. I get very frustrated with her sometimes - she's such a little ball of energy! - but puppies are like toddlers: always on the go, and unable to sit still. I constantly have to remind myself that she is a baby, and she's not being "bad," she just doesn't *know* yet what we expect of her and what's dangerous.

Hence why I had to puppy-proof the library after she tried to eat a Littlest Pet Shop Snail.

Ahh, puppy love...
