Just like babies, I love puppies. But just like my kids, I enjoy the later stages too. In fact, I'm ready to move past puppyhood. We're now at 6 1/2 months and newly neutered. Today, we had two milestones!!
First, Coby
asked to be picked up, held, and cuddled - for more than 45 seconds! Usually he doesn't slow down enough for that. I did NOTHING but hold him until he was done, I loved it so much!
We are also trying to expand his territory out of the tiled kitchen. It's been either on leash (easier to catch when running from a squat) or with pants or belly bands on. A few days ago, we started trying without anything except our VERY watchful eyes and trips either outside or to the potty pad every 40 minutes or so.
Tonight at 11:49pm, Coby left the living room ALL BY HIMSELF AND WENT BACK TO HIS POTTY PAD AND POOPED, then came back to the living room and barked at me to tell me he did (I was on YT and not paying attention - I'm so ashamed).
I thought this day would never come. I just wanted to share the moment - I am soooo excited!!
