She hates having her picture taken!

POSTED BY KIM — The good girl Chloe spent the weekend at the Reiss-Litton house.  8-year-old Maya decided to try her hand at dog training, so she discovered that if she held a small piece of cheese up, Chloe would jump to get it.  They went through many pieces of cheese to get that one trick down — good luck with the results of that, Roxanne!

Chloe’s only other trick this weekend was when the boys walked her down to Blackburn Park.  They tied her up as they played tennis when Cameron noticed that Chloe was chewing through her leash.  He caught her with only three threads left — she’s such a rascal!  But I will admit, that’s an old trick.  Chloe has chewed through many, many leashes. 

POSTED BY KIM — Our friend Chloe came to visit this weekend.  We’ve been missing her!  She is a very funny dog — she does *not* like to get her picture taken.  When she sees the camera, she turns her head so she can see you out of her peripheral vision, but you can’t take a decent picture.  I know, because I tried all weekend.

She was also very *tired* this weekend, and spent a good deal of time sneaking naps in 7-year-old Maya’s bed.  Whenever someone would walk in the room, Chloe would totally act like “Whaa?  How did I end up in this bed??”   Smart dog — Maya has a great bed, and I’m sure when Chloe lays down she can feel invisible hearts, rainbows, and butterflies surrounding her.    I know I do!

Nope, nothing to see here. Keep it moving...

Maya's bed full of stuffed animals -- and Chloe.

These ears -- scientifically proven to be the softest material in the known world.

Here’s Chloe trying to not get her picture taken.  Notice the ear action.

POSTED BY KIM — Former Sugar Creek Gardens employee Chloe had a sleepover at Kim’s house last night.  Yay!  Here she is snacking on some cheese and dog cookies.  Chloe is now retired and spends her days snoozing and chasing rabbits.
