You Really Want To Know? Talk faster, use more words Sound excited, give more praise  Rules and methods Do’s and don'ts I think I’m in a constant daze Tangled legs in her leash The “help” command - no clue She will get it This I know For it’s still so new   She just used the litter box!  The cat is not impressed  She’ll step right up But turns away  When slipping on her vest French and English Hand signs, tone  I think I'm going to scream I am drowning in it all I want to find routine My shoe fell off  She stares at it  Wondering what to do  We try to fetch, to no avail    Cyrus, it's up to you She doesn't bark  When I ask The strategy is strange  I have strep throat My sleep’s cut short Confusion comes with change It's not all work There is fun She loves to spin and play And so that's it, just one more week, That's all I have to say!
