And this is her very favorite doggy of all! Shakespeare sits right in her room listening to us do 'puppy math' and listens to me read her stories before bed every night. Shakespeare is getting quite old now and sometimes gets a little cranky these days but still loves to sit with Ann-Marie and listen to her play. Poor ol' dog. Ann-Marie teases him quite a lot. (he knows to ignore her when she starts talking about going for a walk, but sometimes he just can't help but get his hopes up) We tell her 'quit teasing the dog!' but she thinks it is funny. She will giggle and say, 'he's teased! he's teased!'
