Oh MY! How cute cute cute!!! I want one just like that. If ever Oscar goes in for cloning, I want a copy.

Tibbe does the mirror-puppy craziness, too, for a while and then he figures out there is something phony going on there and snorts and walks off, giving ME the stinkeye for trying to fool him.

I think the cutest thing Tibbe does is his sitting up and begging - and his ROLLBACKSTAY trick where he will, on command, roll over onto his back and freeze there, all splayed out and will wait until I say "Release!". IDK why, but that is just the cutest thing. Oh, and he will "play dead" or "kick the bucket" if you play-shoot him with your finger. Talk about cute. If he's not in the mood, his "dying" scene is to die for! He will grouse and grouse and go around in circles for a few times, get down, grouse some more and slowly, slowly, slowly lie down wrong on his tummy and half-turned, kicking out his back legs, and I move my hand to show him to lie on his side and he will slowly, growling, roll slowly over onto his side and lie there and kick out his back legs in protest a few times. That's when he's done far too many of those tricks and I ask him for one more. Anyway, it looks like he's an actor in a bad, bad cowboy movie and took a long, long, long time to kick the bucket. He can really ham it up. But normally, he will flop right down and roll to his side, even close his little eyes - for a while. Then he will pop them open and roll them around to see what he missed! haha. But he stays there on his side until I release him. Just don't ask him to do more than 3 or 4 or you will get the slow slow "bucket" scene. I've got to get that one on video some day because it cracks everybody up. And he knows it, too! He hears us laughing! Little stinker!
