Tummy Rubs!

The epic saga of retired racer turned loving household pet continued this week with Maddie playing the stunningly beautiful star of the show. It is a story filled with courage and triumph as she continues to wage war with her arch nemesis... the Evil Stairs! Cue menacing, dramatic music by Hans Zimmer. Even Superman has his weakness, and Maddie's happens to be stairs instead of some green rock from space. But there has been so much improvement with this sweet girl. Her love of toys has truly blossomed, and her favorite thing to do with them as of late is to bite them, run away, then come back and grab them so she can relocate them back to her kennel. How sweet of her to open up her home to stuffed squirrels. She is such a giver! 

Speaking of training, Maddie is doing great! She has all of her basics down pat and is picking up some cool extras, like being able to rub her own tummy. Whenever her trainer rubs his tummy and says "rub your tummy!" she lifts up her back leg and rubs her own tummy. It is highly amusing; let's see Lassie do that! Til next time, cheers from Team Maddie!
