Electric Dog

If you have never met our dog, she is quite a character.   She is a sweet German Shepherd who will never grow to full size.  She weighs about 40 ibs and loves to snuggle.  



Her other favorite hobby is to get into trouble. :)  She likes to create precarious situations that either get her in trouble or hurt.  One of our favorite Nova adventures happened when she was 9 weeks old.  She was playing with the sliding door when she got her eyelid caught on a sliding door lock.  I don't even understand how that is possible, but we had to peel her eyelid off of the door.  What an adventure.

We had not had such an adventure in quite a while but Nova would not allow her traditions to go away.  Yesterday, as Luke and I sat doing some work in the Kitchen, Nova went on her usual exploration of the house.  ALL OF A SUDDEN, we heard a squeal that made us jump.  We both ran in as fast as we could to make sure she didn't do anything terrible to herself.

As I sat consoling her (it sounds like we have a child... believe me I know she's a dog)  Luke looked around the room for evidence.  Nova had licked a floor socket and shocked the mess out of herself.  Oh how we laughed... if not for the lick marks on the outlet cover, we never would have known.

Needless to say, Nova is shockingly fine.
