My Doggonal Best

STAIRWAy TO HEAVEN.

Who sez you can’t teech an old dog new trix?
We have two floors here. A downstairs and an upstairs. Mrs. Stillman always carries me upstairs cause I can’t go up there myself.
But today we had company a nice lady and 2 children. A little girl and a three-year-old boy monster. I was scared!
So when Mrs. Stillman went upstairs to get a doll for the little girl I was faced with a terrible dilemma. Stay down with the monster boy or brave the zillion trillion steps up to Mrs. Stillman. I looked at the boy. I looked up the steps. I looked at the boy…He smiled! Uh oh!  I knew that meant trouble!!

So unlike President Obama, I took the less gutsy choice.  Up I went!! 
I stepped . I stopped. I looked.  I stepped. I stopped ...I stepped
until finally, I Made it!!
                                        
 I got all the way up to Mrs. Stillman on my own!

That’s when I found out there is an actual floor up there too. I wondered what Mrs. Stillman was walking on when she was carrying me up there.
Well, anyway, now when people ask me why I climbed the steps I can say:
“Because they were there!”

By the way Mrs. Stillman told me she is not Mrs. Stillman. She said she is not married and that her name is Ms. Stillman. But I don’t know how to spell Ms
, so I’m gonna have to keep calling her Mrs. Stillman. Ha ha.

 Oh and one more tiny thing. Mrs. Stillman bought that house for me the other day.
I tried it out.
It is nice.

You are so brave, Libby. And your self portrait with stairs is another dogsterpiece.
