 4 weeks into this....
I introduced my Lola Bear awhile ago and love this site! I have never had a dog before so this is all new to me and my family.
Lola is about 3 1/2 months old and some things are driving me crazy.
First of all, I am so scared to give her anything but the science diet food she is on. I see some people say yogurt, peanut butter in their kongs, chicken, rice, all this stuff that I didn't know they could have. I did buy her some greenies and puppy treats for when she goes potty outside, what else is good for her?
Second, she is obsessed with poop! She just wants to go outside so she can find some and eat it! Hello! I am dying about that one. My kids keep it picked up the best they can, but she can sniff it out in seconds. What does this mean?
Next, she is obviously a female, but there is this one stuff animal that she humps! It's crazy. Is this normal for a female?
She is really funny with her greenie bones. We give her one and she goes and finds a place to bury it. It's usually a blanket but she digs and digs and digs then uses her nose like she is putting dirt on the hole. It is so funny to watch! She is very protective of it and will growl if we go near the "buried" bone.
Does she sound pretty normal? This is so new to us. Also, how old were your babies when you got them groomed for the first time? How do you know when it is time? She has a very thin coat, but it sticks out everywhere like a poof ball. Is it too early?? THANKS!! |
