| Bodie's Home I got my baby today!!! I AM IN LOVE!!!!! He is such a good boy! He went poop outside and everything. I only had one mistake. Notice I said I made a mistake. I took him for visiting at my cousin's law office. My cousin was playing with him and Bodie started to get irritated. I thought that he was going to jump off the chair and got a little nervous. But he was really trying to let us know that he had to go out. He whizzed on the floor as soon as we let him down from the chair. Be patient with me. I will learn. |

Sounds like you're doing fine! It takes time to learn the signs when a pup has to 'go' - and when they do have to go, there isn't much warning and not a lot of time to get them where they need to go! Just keep in mind that a new puppy's tiny bladder just can't hold it in. Look for signs of restlessness, pacing, sniffing, whining, etc. A puppy will have to pee after eating, playing (as in your case), and sleeping. They may go as often as once every hour or two. Good luck with your new little one! Post some pictures!

| Thanks!! Thank you to all who have given me such a warm welcome and such warm wishes. I have been a silent reader of YT for the past week and a half everyday. I am a slight geek in that I immerse myself in research about anything that I have a true interest and I want to be a good dog owner/mommy to my Bodie. This is an excellent site. I am learning so much! Tonight was cool! Bodie ate dinner when we came back but would not go. I took him outside three times for ten minutes each and nothing happened. I did discover that when there is something else that catches his interest such as a car or people walking, he will ignore me when I calll him. But, he was pretty good when there were no distractions, and this is his first day with me. So...all that said, he did great because he is great. AND HE HANDLED HIS BUSINESS when we went back out later . He's such a good little boy. He is sleeping as I type this. It is easy to see how people fall so in love. These dogs are amazing. I am giving lots of love, but really trying to set the boundaries from the beginning. He is just so sweet..I know that at times it will be hard. But I know my fellow YTers will help me get through. Thanks for reading my long rave about my new baby. |
