My Dog is Indecisive Too

I am known for being indecisive. I change my mind about 100 times before setlling on choices in matters big and small. The questions "Where do you want to sit?" "When do you want to meet?" and "What should I wear today?" are all generally first answered with "I don't know."

Well, apparently Valencia is just as indecisive as I am.

I sometimes grab two of her toys and ask her "which one?" and she takes whichever one is most appealing at that time. I did this tonight with her kong and her bone. She grabbed the bone, then changed her mind and grabbed the kong, then changed her mind again and grabbed the bone.

At this point the decision process most have been too difficult, as she let go of the bone and stared at me as if to say "But Mommy, I want to play with BOTH of them!"

Hmm maybe throwing them will help.

I tossed them in different directions. Valencia ran to the kong, to the bone, and back to the kong before settling on the kong as her toy of choice. Of course, by this time the effort of making a decision had worn her out, and after a minute of playing with the kong, she dropped it and curled up on her bed.

Don't worry Valencia, I totally understand.
