Portuguese Water Dogs and Obama

portuguese water dog

This is Harper, our Portuguese Water Dog at 5 months of age. If ever there was a dog/puppy that could have ADHD, she'd be it. She's grown a lot since this photo was taken 8 weeks ago and can now make a path on the kitchen table- with her FEET- when we're not looking. Or even if we are. She doesn't have three or five toys...no...she got too bored with those. She has a huge BIN full of them.

Harper has no and I mean NO attention span unless there's peanut butter on your finger to get her to listen to you.

Rumor has it that president-elect Obama is considering buying a Portie for his family. Good luck, Obamas!

Truth is, we are head over heels for this little monkey. In time, she'll settle down. We hope.
