We fell in love with her anyway.
I cannot believe it's been five years already.
Today, Dahlia presents to you, 10 things that she will never ever learn.
What I will never ever learn
by Dahlia F. Beast
1. That not all photos are about me. (Though really, why shouldn't they be? I'm cuter than they are anyway!)

2013
2. That no matter how long I stand at the bottom of the tree, the squirrels will not fall down into my mouth. (One may slip someday! I'm not going to miss it if it happens!)

3. That every time I steal the butter there's a "tell" and so Mama always knows as soon as she sees me what I've done. (If I can figure this one out, I'll be gold. She'll never find where I've hidden the butter then!)

4. That every time I steal Mommy's chair (my chair), she'll lure me out with a treat and by the time I come back she's in it! (She's a rotten no good chair stealer is my Mama! Someday I'll figure out how to get the treat and get back into the chair before she can.)

5. That no matter how hard I try, I will never be able to catch treats. (But I do know they'll always land on the floor near me somewhere.)

6. To swim. Even though I can wade pretty good! (Swimming is scary! Your legs leave the ground! What's up with that?)

7. That going into the pond always results in the hose of doom. (I will never understand this. The pond smells delicious.)
8. That I cannot control all the dogs no matter how hard I try. (But I will persevere!)
2008

9. That try though I might, I will never be faster than the other dogs. (But I'll have a great ol' time trying!)

10. The meaning of "too close." (One really can't be too close to their people, right?)

From sad and confused...
To the happy dog of today...
Happy five amazing years, Dahlia! Here's to many more!
