serenissimaIt's hard to believe we've had Mungo for only half a year. It feels like longer, now. I considered moving to bi-monthly doggy status updates rather than monthly, but it turns out I do have something to say: he is no longer a silent dog by any means. He is still a fairly quiet dog, most of the time, but he whines when he wants our attention, and sometimes when he's excited he makes other conversational-type sounds somewhere between a whine and a growl. And just now he barked at me, apparently because he thinks 9 o'clock at night is a great time to play and he wants me to run around with him. I did walk him around the block earlier this evening, and that seemed to help with the restlessness a little.
Also, he seems to be blowing his coat again. We vacuumed less than a week ago, and we could stand to do it again, even after I used the Furminator on our dog a few days ago. When I scritch his chest, hairs come off with each motion of my hand. I hope this lasts no longer than the last time (which was around six to eight weeks, IIRC), preferably shorter.
