Ha Ha! I know what you mean. Maggie will be 5 mos on the 9th.
Hot Rod is 13 mos and still chews paper! I just picked up the remnants of a napkin that hubby left in the family room last night that he and Maggie both shredded. One morning they got hold of a paper towel; it was like a snow storm!
I thought it was Hot Rod that was barking during the day while out in the sunroom and lo and behold, the other night, Maggie was barking her little head off! I never heard her before other than at play with Hot Rod. Oops!
While she has done sooo well with potty training, and I have a pad in the expen with them, she holds it til she goes out in the a.m. Hubby usually takes her out first then Hot Rod. Well, this morning I got up first and was getting both of them ready and she let loose on their pillow on the couch and got me in the process!
And, yes,she has learned that "not coming" when called is in fact a game cause mommy will go get her since mommy is in a rush and needs to get them walked. Ugh!
So I feel for ya cause I'm right there with ya! It too will pass!
I have hope cause Hot Rod is my proof.
