Another new toy

Today was another hot day. I decided to make Mom worry by not eating my breakfast. She looked worried as she left this morning but she threw me a new toy-it's a rope toy with loops and a rope ball at the end. If I pick up the loop part in my mouth and shake my head around the rope ball wallops me in the head. It kind of hurt so I stopped doing that.  With Mom gone, I could relax and eat my breakfast, so I did. When Mom came home she made me go for a long walk in the heat. I wasn't happy so I flopped on the grass a lot. Then I decided to start biting Mom's pants-that was much more effective!
