Ever Had A “Puppy Moment?”

Most things about puppies are adorable. They are always enthusiastic because everything is new and exciting! They also lack the ability to focus and have a very short attention span. AND, it doesn’t bother them a bit.

You may have heard of a “senior moment.” Those moments when you are doing one thing and then forget what you are doing so you start doing something else. Having been around several puppies lately, I realized that rather than a “senior moment,” have a “puppy moment.” It sounds so much better. It almost sounds fun!

Puppies can be walking toward their toy, and mid-step see a moth and head towards it. They can squat to pee and in a nanosecond get distracted and follow a leaf. If they could use words, I’m sure they’d be saying, “hey, look at that, no that, no that!” They look at us confused as we attempt to keep them focused.

The next time you lose a word mid-sentence, forget why you entered a room, or what it is you were going to do next, call it a “puppy moment.” You can also keep an I-don’t-care-if-I-forget-what- I’m-doing attitude and just enjoy the moment. . .whatever that moment is!
