Fun with Duvi

Our little puppy is such a delight! Tonight within 10 minutes, he had me cracking up 3 different times! I was reading a magazine at the kitchen table, when surprise took me from my reading - That sounds like bubbles, I thought. I look over, and Duvick is blowing bubbles in his water bowl. He wasn't lapping at all, just sticking his head deep into the bowl and blowing bubbles! but a few times, he quickly rose and shook his head and pawed at his nose while water gushed out - it hurts to get water up your nose! but that didn't stop him from amusing himself (and me) by sticking his face into his water bowl once more and blowing more bubbles - what a cute and clever puppy we have!

One really cute thing about Duvick is that he loves to see his reflection. Ever since he was a little puppy, Landon would carry him to the mirror and Duvick barks at himself and at Landon. We also have full length mirrors in the house and he perplexes himself when he can see us in the mirror and then turn around and we are behind him! He loves it! Well, anyways, right after he was done blowing bubbles, i caught him barking at our pot-rack. He caught his reflection in the hanging pan and was frantically barking! (see his reflection in the picture above)

He became easily unamused at himself in the pots when he noticed a little Halloween toy on the fridge that we've let him play with a few times. It's this little creature that has 2 eyes and lights up inside when it is violently smacked against something - we gave it to duvick in the dark a few nights ago to see how he would react... he was terrified, but now, he begs for it because he thinks it is so fun. It's made from a very elastically plastic, so when he holds it in his mouth, it extends and retracts, extends and retracts, kind of like a slinky. So he's standing there with it in his mouth, bouncing up and down, and he is just so adorable! I even called Landon to tell him of the cuteness that our doggy has been capable of tonight.
