Yep, She's a Nut.

I realize that every one's dog is "cute"and does silly things, but my dog is special. And I'm not just talking about the way she gobbles down her food in under 15 seconds or sits and looks at you sweetly, then farts loudly.
She also can't type for shit, shakes up soda cans and uses metal utensils on the non-stick cookware. But one of the oddest things she does is hoard shoes. Not chewing, not hiding, hoarding. When she has run of the house, if we are away, or not quite awake yet in the morning, there is a good chance we will come downstairs to find one or more of our shoes on her bed in Tori's Office. She doesn't ruin them, she just gathers them together on her bed. She often keeps the in matching sets. We were out of the house for a wedding one day, and came home to find two pair of my work shoes on her bed, neatly organized, and one more pair by the front door. She must have carried them down from the bedroom one at a time and placed them on her bed. She has repeated this several times, and it is not uncommon for Tori to turn around during the day only to find a new shoe has been selected for service.
Maddie is capable of many other ridiculous feats, and for this reason, and becouse all the blog titles using my name were taken, I have named my blog for her.

Bad dog.
