Day #14 - Pee

Charlie

My dog is crazy and he is scared of everything. This is a bad combination when you think about skinny mixed breed hound that reaches 1.5 meter when he stretch and although he is very cute and smart, he has the capacity to drive us crazy.

Over the last weekend we had thunder and lightning storms. When Charlie hears a thunder he gets very scared and he crawls under our bed (and it takes him so long to get out from under it because it's too small to fit him!) or comes to sit under our tables.

We live in an apartment building, so it means we have to take Charlie for a walk, at least three times a day, no matter how is the weather outside.

I guess you know where it leads us... Charlie afraid of going out in the winter, but we have to pull him out so he could do him doggy business. 

The walk last night was about 5 minutes during which I told Charlie 10,000 times to pee so we could return home. Of course he was too afraid to pee, until he understood that the only chance to go back home is by peeing.

And hence the headline - Pee, not even your own, can make you very happy and you learn to appreciate the ability to go back home after your dog did his business and let you go back to the warm house when it's cold and loud outside!

Stay warm,
