What does contrary mean???

Hey all!

I have a question for all my furry friends – tripawd or not.  Have you ever been called “contrary”?  Just WHAT does that mean, anyway?  My Mom said today on our walk, that I can be so contrary sometimes.  She said it when, for the second time, I had sunk on the side of our trail cause the snow is getting very soft now with the warmer temperatures and that time I really got stuck…up to my belly and she had to help me out!  Phew!  Thank DoG she was there to help me but for some reason she called me ‘contrary’?  I DO know that I tend to have a mind of my own at times!!  Maybe that’s what she meant to say??  Cause I wasn’t listening to her when she kept telling me to stay on the trail or I was gonna sink?  Pfffttt….anyways, me and Mom had a GREAT walk….”contrary” or not…cause she did tell me, that I was acting just like the Maggie she knows and loves!  🙂

Me and Mom also remembered that today marks my 5th month ampuversary!  Holy cowdog! 😉  I have been getting quite a bit stronger in the past couple of weeks, cause at least in our yard where it’s plowed, the footing is GREAT for me now and I’ve been hanging outside now soaking in the sun and just getting more exercise on GOOD footing!  What a relief to walk on something besides ice and snow!  Been a long winter and it’s almost over…the snow is melting pretty good now.

Oh, how I wanna go over THERE off the beaten, solid path! But I'll sink!
"good sit" 🙂

Here's me and my little sister, Haley...I'm prettier, right? 😉

Happy Spring everyone!  I’m hoping it keeps on a meltin’ fast!  Time for some nice green grass, birds to chase in the yard, soaking up the sunshine and going for walks that don’t involve sinking in the snow!!
