Having a Fun Summer

We can't believe that summer is finally here. It is bitter sweet, since we turn Mariko in in just a little over one month. I find myself trying to savor every moment with this silly puppy, and the little things don't seem to matter so much any more . . . she seems almost perfect to me now.

We had the opportunity to attend a conference at a mountain resort with about 1200 attendees this last week. Mariko was, of course, an amazing dog during the entire conference. I even had a couple of presentation where she curled up in a corner behind the podium and no one even knew she was there. Such an amazing dog.

Not going to lie . . . I am going to miss this amazing puppy!

Well, time is flying by so fast. Mariko is turning into such a well-behaved dog. People are constantly commenting about how calm she is. Yes, she can still be a wild, crazy puppy when she is playing with the other dogs or happens to get a severe case of the zoomies; but for the most part, she is just plain AWESOME.

Just chilling at work.

Such a good girl.

My BFF. Sat down for a minute and there she was.

Getting some extra loving!

Her favorite way to pass the day.

 

This is how we sleep.

More loving.

Wait, don't stop rubbing my ears!

We call this "the zone."

Okay, I'm cute, more ear rubbing, please.

Yes!!! Heaven.
