Little Charlie is so adorable, these recent photos are fantastic.

Charlie is getting even more adorable! Hugs from his Texas cousin Yogi!

When my girl was a pup, pushing things under the sofa was her favorite thing to do. One day I came home to find the spring liner shredded and bits spread through the house. Little did I know that she was using the springs as "traps" from which to free her toys. Occasionally, she'll still push toys under the sofa skirt - I love those days!

Last week on Thursday I left little Charlie with my daughter. When I came back home from work, on my question “How was your day” the answer was … let’s say very close to emotional breakdown, had to sent her out to cool off and pick up some dinner. She was close to tears, Charlie did not let her study for exams, she could be the OP of any of these “help, my pup driving me crazy” threads in Puppy section. On the top of it she slipped on the ice in the back yard and fell twice. So I left them alone yesterday again. The traffic was very slow, came home an half an hour later than usual. I could see paw prints at the front yard and found two happy kids in the house. On the same question “How was your day” she said great, we played, went for walk, had a fun and I was able to study. I asked “was he better today”, she said “no, but I was better prepared, I knew what to expect this time. And she said Charlie was at the front door crying around the time when I usually come back. Then I told her how many young girls I met on this forum, having dogs with them in apartments, going to university and working part time with no help from others. She just said wow, they must be really special.
Anyway, we had the first casualty yesterday, one of these stuffless toys lost its voice forever. We use the squeaker now as “weapon of destruction”.
I took little Charlie for short walk this morning before I left, it was just -6C, feels like “-13C” with wind. There were 4 big snow cleaning machines on the street in front of our house, very loud noise made me want to go back to the house, but Charlie kept pulling closer to them, like “guys, what’re you doin’, I wanna have some fun too”. Needless to say our “weapon of destruction” was rested for good.

That is really cute about Charlie and your daughter. I am convinced that we don't train our dogs they train us!!!!

You are right, my husband said little Charlie is doing great job. He just sits at the back door and I am all ready to go out. When he wants treats, he knows it is in the fridge wants veggie sits in the front of the door or on the fridge wants a treat sits on the side of the fridge. He is too smart for his own good.

I'm smiling reading about your daughter's experience as I sort of had that experience myself. We flew Yogi home, got in late on a Friday night, then we had one day as a family before my husband left on a 4 day road trip, leaving me alone to attend to one grumpy Toby and little Yogi. Oh wow, I thought I'd go bonkers by the time day 4 arrived! Now I'm sick and so grateful hubby is home to take charge of Sir Yogi and his big brother so I can recuperate! My hat is off to all those who raise a small puppy alone! I'm glad Charlie has you wrapped around his paws and knows he's cute!

Charlie sounds as though he is one of those very special pups with a huge personality in such a small package. Thank you for sharing his charming ways with us. As you know one day you will look back on these days and share a good laugh with your daughter

Cuddles to you both!
