style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:purple'>Now on to my
candidate for OEBE… our dear, sweet Sasha!! I’m telling
everyone that she got coal in her stocking this year ‘cuz she was SO
bad!! The past month has been a learning experience for Shawn and
I!! Sasha is our 6<sup>th</sup> hound and our first “problem child”!!
She counter surfs!! That’s a first for us!! She’s
stolen the butter dish off the counter on 3 separate occasions (the girl LOVES
butter!!); leftover steak pieces meant to be shared with her sisters; a half-eaten
chocolate candy that I WAS going back for and a chocolate penguin!! She’s
also decided that she likes tearing boxes open! It doesn’t matter
if there are dog treats or toys inside or Christmas ornaments or other gifts,
the boxes get shredded!! We had to wait until midnight on Christmas Eve
to wrap the gifts for fear that she would tear them open!! She chewed on
my favorite PURPLE pen so now it doesn’t click any more! She ate
the cord to my heating pad while it was plugged in! We don’t know
how she wasn’t shocked and thank doG she didn’t burn the house
down! She’s eaten my Harley sandals; chewed the seat belts in the
back of the BUV and several leashes. Chewed up the handles to 2
hairbrushes and 1 hair remover roller. We are missing a dog bowl –
still haven’t found it!! Had to go buy another one!! She ate
my mashed potato bowl from KFC while I ran in to get the DH some taco’s!!
She ate all of my hummingbird plants; my lavender plants and my blackberry
brambles!! And she ate the back to one of my James Patterson books that
has been on the bottom shelf of the bookcase for over a year now (she’ll
be 9 months on January 9<sup>th</sup>)! Thank doG she is SO cute!! <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
