So for the past week, it has just been me and little Snick at the house since my parents headed to Cabo for their 25th anniversary.  It is always nice when it is just me and Snicky because he actually pays a little bit of attention to me when 'mom and dad' aren't here.... when they are, he almost always chooses them over me.  Feel sorry for me. I've had Snicky for 15 years now, and he pretty much rules our household.  He pretty much does whatever he wants, and due to his old age, rarely gets into trouble when he 'misbehaves.'  This encompasses a list of things (doing 'business' in the house, getting into the trash, biting family members and friends (rare but does happen), refusing to come inside, etc.  Since I had not been living at home for a few years, I forgot a few odd things about Snicky.  The past two weeks has made me remember them all again.
1.  He loves ice that has come out of a Vodka/Redbull glass (if he sees a glass with clearish color, he will stand and bark in front of you until you give up your ice)- mom made me give it up even when I told her "its MY ice" - her response was "Well he likes it"
2.  Snick also loves to stash his treats and as I learned yesterday his dog food.....  I found just yesterday a box in my closet filled a good inch with dog food.  He must have been stashing up for scarce times.
3.  Snicky hates when the suitcases come out.  I guess he fears he is going to be left behind... but he acts crazy as soon as he sees them rolling across the hardwood towards the front door.
4.  Snicky also prefers the filet mignon dog treats... he has good taste :)  Dont try to give him pig ears....
5.  Ill end here.. but Snick loves to sneak and sleep on one of the four chairs he is not supposed to be on when everyone leaves for work--- I CAUGHT HIM the other day! He didn't move quick enough!
6.  One more, Snicky loves his Granny and Poppy, and will start crying if you say "Snicker, do you wanna go see Granny and Poppy?"  At one point, they did not feel the same way about him... but now Granny even lets him sit in her lap on the couch.

Well I love this dog, and I get sad just thinking that he might not be around much longer :(  He has brought so much joy to our family.
