You don't need opposable thumbs to hit the "Like" button!

This has been a crazy week so this will be short.  Currently Sweetie is helping me finish my soft tissue sarcoma lecture for the veterinary students tomorrow.   By that I mean she is passed out and snoring while I talk aloud and make animated hand gestures.

Some part of being a foster mom is paying attention to the quirks of your furry friend.  So, over the past several days, I've been quietly tabulating Sweetie's likes and dislikes.  Here's what I've got so far.
Sweetie likes:
1. People
2. More people
3. Dog food
4. Human food
5. Breakfast
6. Dinner
7. Wondering why she doesn't get a lunch
8. Belly rubs
9. Butt scratches
10. Sleeping (preferably on furnitures or beds)
11. Snoring
12. Grunting
13. Dogs (big, small, short or tall)
14. Car rides
15. Running around like a maniac in the dog park
16. Showing off her sweet grill (i.e. smiling) - see picture (stolen from Becky Maxwell :-)
17. Cats (but thinks Kitty Crackhead is cray-cray).

Sweetie dislikes:
1. Strawberries
2. Windshield wipers - really, this is more a cautious and reasonable level of concern.  I feel that I can sympathize a bit as I was pretty scared of car washes as a child.   I think this problem can be easily managed by not adopting her to a home in the Pacific Northwest.

Sweetie says it's well past bed time so I'll paw off for now!
