Zeke 9/8/11

Recently Zeke has been easing into comfortableness and has expressed it like an orphan. He keeps sneaking food out of the trash, running after rabbits, and once he chewed on a "cookie" from Daffy's litter box! One morning, I was trying to get him to pee in the backyard on a leash because of the rabbits, and he wouldn't pee! I was out there for literally fifteen minutes walking around our backyard. So I took him on his morning walk and came back, and he still hadn't peed yet. He came inside and stood by the backdoor, and in a couple seconds I heard shouts of, "Ah! What's he doing?" "Mom, he's peeing!" I immediately stopped him and had my sis take him outside to finish his business as my mom and I soaked up the accident with ShamWOWs. He also chewed on some of my stuffed animals, but there was no wear or tear except for the eyeball he had previously pulled off was lying on the floor longing for its owner. Other than that he's been good, heels on walks, and gets along tolerably with the cat. I'm teaching him to fetch a pencil and play dead when I loom over him with my arms waving and me roaring like a bear. He's adorable when he's looking up at me with his ears back and his chin down, like: "I'm a good dog, hm?"
