“Wyatt,” said Jerry. “2012 is going to be your year. I know it. This is the year when you can let go of your past, and move yourself forward so that you can be the pawesome dog I know you were meant to be.
This is the year when you will turn into a Rockstar Tripawd, the time when you will show your pawrents how much you care about your pack by being at your folk’s side, always calmly and obediently, and helping other dogs stay cool in ruff times.
Wyatt, I know you can do this.”
OK Jerry. I think I can too.
We’re only 11 days into the year, but so far, so good. No fightin, no cussin, no spittin and no swearin. It ain’t so bad being a good dawg. I like the attention and I’ll keep at it. For you, and all the other Tripawds out there who need help.
Sure Jerry, I can do this!
Awww, Wyatt, you are a Rockstar Tripawd!!! Its tough being the baby of the family and always having to live up to your perfect older sibling… (Zephyr said, “I feel your pain, Wyatt!”, but I had a perfect big sister, once, as well, and I had to learn how to be good.)
The no cussin, spittin, and swearin — we were doing good on that, too, until today. Then momma got a really bad case of that darned 24-hour Tourettes…

Aww, Wyatt, you are a rockstar! Finchy feels your pain too. It’s hard to be in the shadow, but you will find your way to shine too, just like Finchy did (but you don’t need to get bad gas too- spare your pawrents that, please!). We know you can do it Wyatt!
Jenna, Spirit Chili Dawg, & Finchy
Wyatt – we agree that you are truly a Rockstar already!
I was honored to see you make your first swim! Angels Jerry and Abby were there watching and giving you the courage to do it. If you believe in yourself, you can do anything. We all sure believe in you, buddy.
You had big pawprints to fill – and you are doing a great job.
Jackie, Angel Abby’s mom
Wyatt…you are a SuperSTAH!!!!
And I have a secret crush on you!
Love,
Pegz
Wyatt, you are such a regal boy. I have no doubt you will just shine this year!
Dang! I’m inspired! I think I’ll give up fighin, cussin, spittin and swearin too!
Wyatt, you are a rockstar!!!! Never stop shining!
Chloe also says you can do it!!! And she too thinks you are a rockstar! Have a good year and we hope your “good streak” continues!!!
-Nicole and Chloe
Right on Wyatt! Keep up the good work! Biff also is on a mission to be less cussy/fighty this year. He’s unlearning his fight-kennel memories and learning that he can pass unfamiliar dogs at the park or on the street without freaking! Progress is excellent!!
Wyatt… Hope you have a wonderful year! I see you already made it Texas too.. that’s a great way to start your year!
