Puppy Mochi

Bo was a very funny puppy. Extremely expressive, particularly when he was unhappy about how something was going. He never lost that, but he lost how funny he was about it. He knew how to get a laugh and that it was a good thing. I got lots of good pictures of him when he was younger... as he got older his expressions got more sour. Truly, he took on the personality of a grumpy old man.

 These were all taken around when Mochi was 6 months.

So what brought this up? Mochi was being really funny on Thursday. Like he hasn't been since I can even remember. He desperately wanted to go outside to bark at the neighbor dogs and I was ignoring him. He ran over and pounced my on my chair and whined in his best "I'm so neglected" cry. A few minutes later my roommate came home and we were both sitting at our computers. Mochi sat a few feet from both of us and started glaring at me.

Whenever either of us would talk to him he'd start turning his head (I put that on a cue, best training choice ever) and looking cute and if we stopped, he'd look over at me and glare again. I can't describe it well, but I can say it was hilarious, adorable and totally reminded me of Mochi way back when.

Today he's been good but unfortunately my speaker cord is not the best and I had to adjust it. You know that sound your bass makes when you plug it in/out? Yea.. stupid cord will make that loud pop sound if you move it. I was trying to adjust it and he started panicking so I just left it for now. He's passed out at my feet, at least he's not clamoring for my lap!
