My furry friend Sugar the Golden Retriever, really inspires me! She can balance lots of bones on her nose! My furry sister, Nala, could balance lotsa stuff on her nose, but me — not so much. After seeing Sugar’s post<\/a> about her balancing acts, I thought I would try some balancing of my own. \ud83d\ude42

\nWARNING: Silly Post Ahead…<\/strong><\/p>\n

Before I get to my post, I want to share more of Sugar’s balancing acts. Please click here<\/a> to see Sugar and her amazzzing sense of balance. You GO girl!<\/p>\n

Now to be silly-fied…<\/strong><\/p>\n

This past May, I tried to do some of the basic tricks that Nala could do. I couldn’t sit up (still can’t), I couldn’t roll over (not happening), and I couldn’t balance a bone on my nose<\/a> (well, not on purpose, anyway). <\/p>\n

So, the other day after I saw Sugar doing such an amazing balancing act, I decided to try it again. I figured that since I’ve been doing really well with other stuff, maybe I could now balance something <\/em>on my nose. Wanna see how I did? \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

\"Tricks:
\nNala went first and balanced a toy bone on her nose.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Tricks:
\nHey, I could do this one.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Tricks:
\nDoes this pass for balancing?<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Tricks:
\nNala can easily balance a bone on her nose.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Tricks:
\nShe’s such a show off! Heh.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Tricks:
\nI told my mommy I can’t balance any FOOD
\non my nose, but she kept trying anyway.
\nAs long as I can smell it, it’s not staying up there.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Tricks:
\nIt’s on my HEAD — that’s close enough, isn’t it?<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Tricks:
\nTHERE, it’s on my nose. Now can I eat it?<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Tricks:
\nThen mommy got some crazy ideas about balancing other stuff.
\nShe started grabbing stuff from around the house. She was like…
\n“What else can I grab that’s within arms reach?” So, first there
\nwas my fishie toy, which I balanced with no problem.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Tricks:
\nNala did it too, but she’d much rather balance a bone.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Tricks:
\nThen there was the Chinese noodle,
\nwhich tasted delicious, btw.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Tricks:
\nNala loves them too.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Tricks:
\nThen mommy got crazy again, and had us
\nbalance a hair clip! I had no trouble.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Tricks:
\nNala, on the other hand, kept wanting to
\ncatch it as it was falling, and eat it!<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Tricks:
\nShe eventually stayed still and balanced it.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Tricks:
\nOh come on, a SHOE? Nala didn’t
\nlike that one, but she did it anyway.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Tricks:
\nYeah, I hated balancing the shoe too.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Tricks:
\nThe toy fox was much more fun, for Nala…<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Tricks:
\nAND for me.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Tricks:
\nCrazy ideas… my mommy’s filled with them.
\nNext for us to balance, was a pillow!<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Tricks:
\nTa da!<\/em><\/p>\n

How’d we do, Sugar? \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
