A lively little pooch, we say, a silly scalawag with ears that never will stand up and plumy tail to wag. Considered all the normal names, then called him Mini-Wow. Because he's always in a rush to go somewhere, somehow. Shenanigans he's into would make the saintly bawl! And mother's moue was fearsome for that dead rat in the hall! He's carried off Dad's papers and battered Missy's doll; he's chewed my nicest slippers and punctured Tommy's ball. He’ll tear around the table, dash through an open door, chase his tail, plague the cat – why don’t his feet get sore? "If I had half his energy," Dad frequently exclaims, "I'd face each day with zoom and zip and join in all your games."

I found this image on Pixabay. I’m sure the owner of this pup had his hands full! I think this is the best picture I’ve seen of vibrant enthusiasm. 🙂

Our dog literally used to wear the pads off of his feet from jumping the fence and exploring out & about. At least he would stay put afterward for a few days.

They would literally start bleeding and I’d have to wrap & flour them. He was a malamute and we had NO idea how active they need to be. He needed to be on a farm like we have now, not in the city. We didn’t know & I felt bad for him as I would be at school all day long and he’d be bored.
