Puppy Power

Today is the one week anniversary of getting Penny. She's our red sable miniature dachshund. Full of energy and all around cuteness. Having a puppy is teaching Eric and I a lot of things. Like...
 1. I value fresh smells. Puppies are not always fresh. I gave her a bath on Friday and I don't know how long I can hold out...
2. We are not yet patient people. How hard is it to pee in the same place all the time? Puppies don't know. 
3. Praise is important. Couldn't we stand to dole out more praise, not only to a pet, but maybe a co-worker? Your spouse? Your parents? I'm willing to try this out. Something wonderful might happen.
