Sad Sad day with our puppy Baloo

So Baloo is getting his big boy teeth and now he thinks he is a big boy and can do as he pleases.( I wish baby teeth came in as fast as his teeth are coming in; each tooth takes three days to come in. )We haven't worried about him going down stairs where we keep the majority of Thing 1's toys because he was afraid to go down there (he was a bit more clumsy a month or so ago and always fell on our porch ones, so I think that the full flight of stairs was too much for him to master) but now... he can go downstairs. So we have to keep the kitchen door closed. Sad sad day.



Not only does he think he can go downstairs, he thinks the chairs are his too. So just when I think I have him trained he surprises me with something else. I have to keep reminding myself he is only 4 1/2 months old and this will probably go on till he is 2. At least he is learning and I still think he is a beautiful dog. Good thing too otherwise he probably would have died when I found him standing on my dining room table- all four feet, eating Thing 1's food. I have never seen a dog try and get down so fast in my life. (Can you see his polka dotted belly, he is actually polka dotted all over.)
