Silly Sophie!!!!

 Sophie likes to play a little game with herself when she's board.  She'll put her front paws up on the trampoline and then drop a tennis ball onto the trampoline.  Sometimes she goes underneath the trampoline and moves the ball around with her nose.  But most of the time she just jumps up on the trampoline and gets her ball and then jumps off.  Then she does it all over again.  She's crazy!!! But it cracks me up to look out and see her on the trampoline.

So this picture sums up Sophie.......the ball!  She always wants to play ball.  She's just like Bailey.  We are constantly playing ball with her.  She loves it.  She sneaks balls inside and then tries to get us to play with her inside.  If we don't play with her then she plays a game where she pushes the ball under the end table and then tries to get it back out with her paws.  She loves her balls!!!!

It has been SO hot this summer!  The boys have wanted to play in the pool all the time.  Sophie has decided that she likes the pool too.  She drops her ball in the pool and then jumps in to get it.  I think she likes to cool down too.

Luckily Sophie is having more good moments.  She's turning into a good dog but a very spoiled dog!  Bridger can't walk into a room without mauling her.  He can't just pet her.  He has to lay on top of her.  She just puts up with him.  She's definitely a good companion.  I love having her follow me around the house.  If I go upstairs to switch out the laundry, she follows me.  We've almost survived our first year with Sophie.  So in about two to three more years, she's be more mellow.
