Puppy Love

John has really started to pay A LOT of attention to our two yorkies. He loves to chase them around and try to pet them. The puppies, or as we call them, "the boys" look at John kind of scared and end up running and hiding...I have no idea why they would be afraid of a rambunctious 17 month old. :) Well, on Friday night, John caught up to Vito and when he touched him, Vito just froze..he wasn't sure what to do. We have been working with John on "pat gently" so he doesn't just yank out their fur, so he started petting him gently, or at least what he thought was gentle. :) Vito did really well until John tried to pick him up and then he was out of there...lightning fast! He didn't want to be off the ground in a toddler's embrace. After toying with Vito, John then wanted to love on Sal. Sal is very sweet and likes to give lots and lots of kisses...so John puckered up for him and the last picture shows true puppy love. :) Of course, the picture is staged to look like Sal is licking John on the lips...we wouldn't actually let our dog lick John on the mouth or anything...heh! heh!
