Aww! I always see all these beautiful pictures of everyone's pup, but it's quite another thing to be able to picture their quirks. Love it!

Let's see ... I don't know how many I can think of off the top of my head ...

I almost named Addie Patton because she does the "army crawl." She'll stretch her front paws out in front of her with her belly on the ground and use her front paws to pull herself along the carpet. She doesn't do it for long, and she doesn't get very far, though.

At around 10pm, Addie will start making noises and stare at me. She knows it's walking time. If I continue to ignore her, she will sit on my lap and stretch her paws up to my chest.

If Addie wants something, and she feels I'm not understanding her awesome communication skills, she will climb above me (like on the top of the couch) and scratch furiously at my head. That one actually kind of hurts.

If you carry a towel, be sure it's not dragging anywhere near her level or it becomes her new toy.

Don't wear long dresses. That also becomes her toy, and she'll try and rip it right off of you.

She loves to lick feet. No one is allowed to wear shoes in the house, so there are plenty of opportunities for her.

If you wear slippers, she's going to attack them. Her thoughts: TOY!

She loves sniffing, greeting and chasing dogs but hates it when the dogs greet/chase her. You should have seen her when my nephew's slightly-larger yorkie "power-walked" after her. Both refused to run, so it was just a power-walking train all around the house with Addie leading the way.

She's afraid of trash cans (the ones you leave outside your house).

She hates it when mom reads the newspaper. Every time, she will jump onto mom's lap and sit herself right on the newspaper. That'll teach mom to read.
