"Look at what I won."
Fuji got some goodies in the mail from lapdogcreations.com (Nichole)

"Is that the mail again bringing more treats for me?"

"Did any treats drop here?"
It was funny because the box was on the counter and she started circling the island and barking at the box...she knew it was for her!:) Thanks so much Nichole!:)
