!. Forget sleeping in. Puppies need to pee/poop at 6AM. Or earlier. And you have to run to the door. Otherwise the poop may end up on the rug in front of the door.
2. Puppies have more energy than a room full of two year olds. Puppies jump three or four feet into the air. Straight up.
3. Puppies think that cats can be convinced to play with them. Even if they're hissing and growling.
4. Puppies run around like goofballs. One guy today called my puppy a 'knucklehead". He was right.
5. Puppies will eat anything. I mean anything. You spend a certain amount of time digging bits of detritus out of their mouth.
6. Puppies bark at cars, people, dust, shadows and absolutely nothing.
7. Puppies can make you laugh until you're weeping. In the back yard. In your pajamas. In the rain.

I am SO glad it's you and not me.
Believe me, these are not puppy dog characteristics, this is the shape of things to come for the entire lifetime of that dog. Enjoy and hide your favourite shoes NOW.
I'm with Sabine on this one. We have had 3 dogs.....Wheaten Terrier, Border Collie(perfect for herding the 6 kids) and a Kooikerhondje....I have lovely kitties...my hubby like dogs and he sure can pick them. Glad I had kids when we had the Border or it would not have been good. Dogs are just....different. I have never seen a cat eat poop...'nough said...
I'm with Sabine on this one too. My dog is just shy of 4 years old and he does most of what you described. And aren't we the lucky ones?!!
Favorite shoes HIDDEN.
And the eating of cat poop...well, they are different, those dogs.
