Tricking Mom

This morning I was very tricky. Mom let me out of my crate while she was putting her shoe on. Instead of crawling under the comforter at the end of the bed as usual, I did something different. She came looking for me by the bed but I wasn't there. I was sitting by the stairs! When she took me out for  a walk, I wasn't in the mood so I lay down in the grass and rolled on my back. That way Mom can't pick me up. If she tries to pick me up when I'm belly up it hurts my back, I yelp, and Mom feels bad. And that is the only way to start her day off!
