Mia

My friend Mia comes over to see me sometimes and now that I'm growing bigger, I can really get my revenge on her.  I can now push her over.  I can lay on her and she can't get up.  Because while I'm growing bigger and heavier, Mia's not.  Apparently she's fully grown - that is she won't grow anymore.  That's what my Mum and Dad tell me anyway.  I don't understand why she's not growing, but apparently it's something to do with the fact that she's not a German Shepherd dog.

Now though, Mum and Dad tell me I'm playing too rough with her.  She yelps sometimes when I sit on her or when I bite her ear.  So, now I have to be gentle with her and not hurt her so much.  I'm trying, but sometimes I am so excited that I forget, and then Mum has to pull me off her and force me to 'take a break'.  I hate taking a break!  I don't need a break!  I'm fine.  But I'm beginning to understand that Mia's not.  She 'packs up' really fast now with only a little bit of playing time.

I wish I had a bigger dog to play with - another one like me - a German Shepherd.  Then I could really play.  But Mum and Dad have told me that I will be an only dog.  So I'll have to see if I change their minds.
