Well folks, This is Gelli reporting from the world of puppy. I have discovered several neat new things. First, let me tell you about toilet paper. It comes on rolls and the best thing is that when you fight with a roll of toilet paper it fights right back! And if you run into the living room trailing a stream of toilet paper mom and dad chase you! You can wrap it around chairs, festoon the dining room and kitchen in nice white paper streamers and tear it to shreds, and eat it. (This is especially good if they are entertaining.) And, it is biodegradable and does no damage to your digestive system. Unlike panty hose which is my next subject. Mom has this habit every morning of putting on hose. This is a good game and she obviously needs my help because she balances on one leg while attempting to insert the other leg in hose. I find that the best approach is to grab the feet of the free hose leg and RUN! I am guessing that we could add several new panty hose challenges to the agility events. And finally, there is UNDERWEAR! Ladies bras and undies seem to elicit the greatest response. The more lacy and delicate the item the better. AND if I grab Mom's underwear and show off my prize when they have company I get the very best reaction. Doesn't really matter if it is black lace or cobbled together with safety pins. She chases me all the same. Its especially good if the people do not have doggies of their own. They are amazed at my brilliance and absolutely astonished at the tricks I get up to. They think I'm a genius! Note from Gelli's parents: Who teaches these puppies these tricks?! Is there some kind of invisible manual or is it genetic. Is this the instinctive behavior of genus BERNER? We were so proud that we were not harboring a counter surfer who stole pot roasts, cheese, underwear, shoes, etc.! Were we living in a fool's paradise! Gelli seems to have read the Berner-l about mischevious misbehavior and taken every lesson to heart. He's nearly six months old and is clearly plotting insurrection every second of every day! We love him and the challenge is in not laughing when he gets up to his silly antics. Daisy, you have a lot of questions to answer! We believe that you have been channeling Berner Puppy Hints to the next generation!
