It finally happened.

The weather was nice yesterday, so to take a break from writing, Sam and I went for a two mile walk. Probably because we hadn’t walked in a week, Sam was more boisterous than usual.

I should explain here that Sam is my 60 lb dog. He turned one year old mid September, and he’s all rough-house playful boy except for one tinsey thing – he squats to pee.

Some dogs just take longer to mature. At least that’s what I’ve read. Karin Tabke made the remark that Sam might have a gender issue. Funny girl.

Well, on the walk back yesterday, Sam stopped at the lightpole, hiked his leg and took a whiz on the city.

I was so proud of him. 🙂

So a milestone for my boy.
