Hello, I’m Savanna! Learn my introduction to be taught extra about me and my spunky Chihuahua combine, Penny.
Canine can actually rise up to some loopy antics, and Penny isn’t any exception. She’s all the time doing the craziest issues that maintain me entertained. Many of the issues she does, I don’t assume she has any concept that they’re humorous to me. She’s simply being a canine.
Penny’s character actually is one thing else and I by no means know what she’ll do subsequent. However there are different issues she does fairly persistently that all the time get a chuckle out of me. Listed below are the foolish issues my canine does to make me snicker.
The 8 Humorous Issues Penny Does:
1. She Sits in Bizarre Positions
I don’t have plenty of expertise with canine possession, however I do understand how a canine is usually supposed to take a seat, and it sometimes entails having all 4 paws flat on the ground. It looks as if Penny doesn’t understand how a canine is meant to take a seat although, or she simply sits how she’s most snug.
She loves to take a seat along with her tail beneath her, along with her again legs splayed out and both each entrance paws resting between them or with one on all sides of her proper leg. It’s undoubtedly not probably the most lady-like place, and I don’t see the way it’s snug. However identical to Corgis like to sploot, Penny loves to take a seat this fashion.
2. She Says “Pfft” a Lot
One in every of my favourite books is Travels with Charley: In Search of America by John Steinbeck. He talks about touring round America along with his Poodle named Charley. However one of many traces that caught out to me was when Steinbeck mentioned his canine might pronounce the letter F. I wasn’t certain what he meant by that, till I heard Penny go “Pfft” for the primary time.
She normally does it to precise displeasure or to complain that we didn’t throw her toy quick sufficient. She certain has plenty of complaints for somebody that has her each want taken care of and lives at our home rent-free. I assume that’s what’s so humorous about it.
3. She’s Afraid of Lizards and Birds
It’s undoubtedly not humorous that Penny is afraid of issues, as a result of none of us wish to see our canine scared. Nevertheless it’s humorous what she’s terrified of. We’ve got three totally different sorts of lizards at our home, however each time Penny sees one working towards her, her eyes get extensive and he or she runs away. I don’t know if it’s their pace or what, however it’s hilarious as a result of she might do much more hurt to lizards than lizards might do to her.
She’s additionally afraid of birds. This one is a bit more comprehensible as a result of she’s a small canine and we do have some fairly massive birds like hawks and owls close to our home. However she appears extra afraid of small birds, and it began when she was a pet and a flock of 100+ blackbirds landed in our yard, inflicting fairly the cacophony. She refused to go outdoors till the subsequent morning, and now she’s afraid of even one small chook that she sees in our yard.
She loves caterpillars, butterflies, and bees although, and I’m all the time having to remind her to not eat bees as a result of they’re “spicy.”
4. She Will get the Zoomies
In fact, Penny makes me snicker for a similar purpose that each one our canine make us snicker. She will get the zoomies. She’s a fairly lazy canine generally, so when she will get the zoomies, it’s normally as a result of she both has to poop or she simply pooped. Both approach, when she will get them, I say “Do you could have the zoomies?” She runs to the again door, and once I let her out, she runs round the very same path three or 4 instances earlier than working again to the door (or pooping if she must).
5. She Cheats at Races
Talking of working, Penny all the time cheats each time I attempt to race her. If I can’t get her to come back again inside, all I’ve to do is say “I’ll race you!” She bows down, I say, “In your mark, get set…” and he or she all the time takes off earlier than I may even say “Go!” Penny all the time beats me again to the door, however she in all probability would anyway even when she didn’t get a head begin. It’s fairly humorous to observe her go all out simply to win, even when it means dishonest.
6. She Cleans the Bathtub
What do I imply by that? Anytime I get out of the bathtub or bathe, Penny has to leap in (nicely, fairly be picked up and put in) there and lick the remaining water off the underside after it drains. I all the time discover this extraordinarily amusing, since she hates the bathtub when it’s her flip.
However possibly she simply needs to verify she will get each final little bit of water up so I don’t drown the subsequent time I get in there. Who is aware of? However I get a kick out of it each time.
7. She Goes Spelunking
Penny likes to burrow into blankets, and he or she sleeps beneath the covers at evening. Typically we get up at evening as a result of she’s burrowed all the best way to the foot of the mattress. One evening my husband requested her if she was going spelunking (the act of exploring caves), and he or she got here crawling out. So now we all the time say she’s going spelunking each time she burrows to the foot of the mattress.
It truly makes me nervous as a result of I’m afraid she’s going to suffocate, so I all the time transfer her again as much as the highest. Nevertheless it’s humorous to image Penny sporting just a little mining hat with a flashlight on it and going “spelunking.”
8. She Rolls Round on Useless Worms
I do know plenty of canine roll round in pungent stuff, however Penny’s favourite factor to roll round on is useless worms. We’ve got plenty of earthworms in our yard, and Penny all the time finds the useless and dried up ones. It’s humorous to observe her roll round within the grass flailing her physique about to choose up the “pungent” scent. I don’t thoughts as a result of they don’t make her truly stink, and there’s far worse issues she might roll round in.
Canine Are So Humorous, Even when They Don’t Know It
There are simply among the many ways in which Penny makes me snicker, and possibly your canine do a few of them, too? It’s all the time enjoyable to see what our canine rise up to and all of the methods they’re humorous with out even attempting to be!
