[Dailydrool] Mariah is rubbing off on Ipo

[Val lbrewerzwick via Dailydrool]

Now we have two rascals. Ipo is following in Mariah's paw prints. Yesterday, someone came to the house and opened the gate wide. Both Mariah and Ipo danced out, throwing twinkling glances over their shoulders. MAriah darted left up the street; Ipo darted right.  I called them both. Ipo came. Mariah laughed, so I set off, barefoot, up the street and captured her as she nonchalantly inspected a neighbor's yard up close. I forgot to take a leash, so I carried my fifty pound wagging, mischief maker home over the gravelly road, cursing under my breath (what was left of it).  I arrived back to find Ipo happily chewing up a plastic outlet cover my husband had left on the coffee table. I think Ipo feels at home now...  Good girl, Mila, was sitting by the door looking embarrassed.
