Good Morning shopping madness day.

Ate a bunch yesterday, then passed out in front of the TV as did most of the rest of the diners so weather outside really didn't matter.

Hit the jackpot as was sent home with 4x more than I consumed the first time including deserts.

Nephew has a 2yo girl pit bull, Dixie. The one Pepper bullied with her let's play extreme puppy excitement on their play date. Dixie asked to go out three different times. Each time she would whine and then Bark and they would comment "oh, you want outside" and let her out. Having trained dogs to talk the whining Dixie does before the bark is very close to "I want outside." AND the "whining" sounds where exactly the same each time. I commented about it and my Nephew's wife told me Dixie always whines before barking when she wants something. And the whining is different for each different thing she want's. Told her that all she needed to do is praise Dixie more when the whine is closer to what Dixie is asking for and she will be surprised how quickly Dixie will catch on and she will have a talking dog. The expression on my neice's face let me know she had not even considered Dixie was trying to tell them what she wanted. Think the light was coming on. Won't be surprised if I hear they have a talking dog.

Oh, and Dixie is a face licker. After you pet her before you know it she jumps up and you have a pit bull licking your face.
