Well, Luca Dean went a WHOLE day with only one tiny pee-pee accident the day before yesterday! In a little over a week he's made two new canine buddies, has the cat chasing him instead of vice versa, will sit and lay down for treats, figured out what 'no' means, and doesn't whine in the crate if I leave the room for just a few minutes!!! We sure are proud parents. He knows "kisses" too. (Sticks his nose to my lips -- but doesn't lick faces for some reason!)

Oh, and he figured out how to move the heating pad to wherever he wants it on the bed so he can have the softest AND warmest place, LOL!!! Went in there earlier to check on him and he had moved it from a flat place in the middle of the bed up next to Daddy's pillow (his fave). They are so smart! I'm amazed! I've heard they're smarter than most people think, but I'm still kinda shocked.

So, we will be moving on to making whole days without elimination accidents and leaving for longer periods with him in the crate. Besides the usual stuff, was there anything y'all taught to your babies that's really helped out? (Besides sit, saty, heel, down, "place" or "kennel"?)
