Most Embarrassing Moment

 

As puppyraiser, we all have embarrassing moments, even if we don't like to admit it. It is easy to push those embarrassing moments into the far reaches of brain in hopes of never retrieving them.

 

When Vashti was waiting in line at the supermarket checkout stand, she turned her around and whoops -- her nose was up a lady's miniskirt. Embarrassed! Was I embarrassed, oh, yes!  Fortunately, the lady whose privacy was invaded was understanding.

Vienna always had problems greeting people when she was a baby. She would just get SO excited!  Last year at Boccali's dinner, she saw  Suzanne...a lady she had seen only when she was a tiny puppy.  So, I decided to let 10 week old Vienna go visit Suzanne. Well, Suzanne picked her up and Vienna decided then would be a good time to pittle!!! She pittled all over Suzanne!! Talk about embarrassment for me!  But, Vienna just kept wagging her tail.  Fortunately, her "Cocker Spaniel" days are gone and now she just shows her love by wagging her tail really hard!  By Joanna
