Don't Be Fooled By a Cute Face

As some of you may know, we have a new addition to our family. We got a new puppy the day before Tyke's birthday. He is a Yorkie and he is so, so, so cute! Potty training is a challenge but he is really doing better than I ever imagined. I mean, as good as potty training can go. He has been really fun and our kids just L O V E him. His name is Max and he is 3 months old.

Now that I have introduced him I have a funny/gross story. I went to have dinner with Tenae at the Holiday Inn. I brought Max aka Puppy with me. We have a little crate he stays in, while in the car, and he does quite well in there. After dinner, Tenae and I were headed to her office to discuss some future business plans. Our dinner was a bit lengthy so I was feeling guilty for having Puppy in the car for so long. I asked Tenae if her hotel was puppy friendly and she said yes. So, we went out to get him.

He pottied before we went in, then he pottied 3 times while we were in her office. NAUGHTY! Two pees and one poo. He was courteous enough to pee on the plastic mat for easy clean up. Thanks Max! But then a little while later we found a poo by a chair in the corner. *sigh* So I cleaned it up and put it in the garbage. I pulled the liner out and planned on taking it to the garbage when I left. Remember, Max is a small dog so his poos are as big as a medium sized tootsie roll. :o) Ew. I know.

Tenae and I are engrossed with our conversation and Tenae notices that Max is wrestling with the garbage sack on the floor. Then we notice he is trying to eat his POO!!!! Are you kidding me?! That is so sick! I took it away but I am certain he got some in his mouth. Gross.

About 15 minutes later, an employee walks into Tenae's office with a question. Right away Max runs to him and he picks him right up. Just a side note...Max is notorious for stealing kisses...on the mouth. With that being said my eyes widen as big as golf balls because I just know that he is going to lick this dudes mouth. I say, "Oh...um he might be stinky." You know, a little hint like put him down sir. He continues to puppy talk him and hold him right in front of his face. I say, "He might need a puppy breath mint." My eyes are getting wider. Then just as I suspected Max went in for the kill and licked this guy all over the mouth. Aaaaah!

I laugh now because for any of you who know me well you know I CANNOT hide my facial expressions. Tenae said she was thinking the whole time this was happening, "don't look at Kristi's face. Don't look at Kristi's face" for fear she might lose all composure. Probably a good thing because my eyes couldn't have been wider and my mouth was dropped to the floor.

I guess what you don't know won't hurt ya, right? Poor guy.

Does this look like a cute lil' puppy that would eat his own doo doo? Don't be fooled. He is one disgusting pooch.
