I was one of the lucky ones. I don&#8217;t know all the details about what led us to cross paths on that one day back in September, but I am very grateful that my family and I found each other.<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\nI would like to ask everyone who reads this post to consider saving a rescue dog, instead of buying one from a breeder. If I had one wish to make, it would be that all the homeless doggies would find a family of their very own. <\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/www.baileybegood.com\/img\/blog\/Feb2011\/FamilyPlay1.jpg\" align=\"left\" alt=\"Family Play\" \/>Today was a great day. Mommy played with Nala and me a lot this afternoon, and we practiced training with the clicker. I think that Nala&#8217;s liking that clicker too &#8212; she already knows her commands and listens pretty well, but she sometimes ignores mommy. I think she tries to use that &#8220;can&#8217;t teach an old dog new tricks&#8221; excuse. But I know she&#8217;s only faking it. I can tell she understands <em>everything<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/www.baileybegood.com\/img\/blog\/Feb2011\/FamilyPlay2.jpg\" align=\"right\" alt=\"Family Play\" \/>I also played with my human sister lots. She took a toy bone and hid it underneath her legs, and I had to try and find it. The <em>Find it<\/em> game is so much fun. I&#8217;m able to practice using my nose and all my other doggie senses. I just love this game. <\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/www.baileybegood.com\/img\/blog\/Feb2011\/FamilyPlay3.jpg\" align=\"left\" alt=\"Family Play\" \/>See the picture on the left? I was trying to catch the toy bone from underneath my human sister&#8217;s legs. Don&#8217;t I look vicious in that picture? Such big teeth I have!<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/www.baileybegood.com\/img\/blog\/Feb2011\/FamilyPlay4.jpg\" align=\"right\" alt=\"Family Play\" \/>I also played in my human sister&#8217;s room. I love balancing on the big blue ball and watching television at the same time! She always laughs when I lose my balance and roll off the ball onto the floor. I don&#8217;t mind when that happens &#8212; I just jump right back on and balance away! <\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/www.baileybegood.com\/img\/blog\/Feb2011\/FamilyPlay5.jpg\" align=\"left\" alt=\"Family Play\" \/>My human sister lets me eat my bone on her bed, even though it can get pretty crowded up there. She must have a hundred stuffed animals all piled up near her pillows. I want to play with each one of them, but I can&#8217;t. They&#8217;re not for doggies. But I can dream, can&#8217;t I? <\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/www.baileybegood.com\/img\/blog\/Feb2011\/FamilyPlay6.jpg\" align=\"right\" alt=\"Family Play\" \/>Later on we went outside to play. We ran around the pool, played hide-and-seek, and practiced the clicker some more. Like my mommy and daddy, my human sister always gives me lots of hugs. Look how big I am in that picture&#8230; I&#8217;m only 7 months old! <\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/www.baileybegood.com\/img\/blog\/Feb2011\/FamilyPlay7.jpg\" align=\"left\" alt=\"Family Play\" \/>When we came inside, I went to my water bowl, but it was empty. I had to wait until it was filled up. Oh how I wish the crushed ice was working! Drat. No ice in my bowl&#8230; just water.<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/www.baileybegood.com\/img\/blog\/Feb2011\/FamilyPlay8.jpg\" align=\"right\" alt=\"Family Play\" \/>After I took a really long drink, I took a little nap. I can get comfortable sleeping anywhere, and since I was so tired, I fell asleep right in the middle of the floor. <\/p>\n<p>Sweet doggie dreams, everyone!<\/p>\n<p>Woofs &#038; hugs,<\/p>\n<p>~Bailey<\/p>\n<p><P>&nbsp;<\/P><span style=\"font-family: verdana; font-size: xx-small;\"><em>Copyright \u00a9 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.baileybegood.com\">BaileyBeGood.com<\/a>.
