Hi everyone! Just wanted to let you all know that Toby is home (Zeus was not my husband or my kids favorites, but we all loved Toby). He is doing well... Poor little guy had 6 hours in the car yesterday to get him home! He weighs 1lb 4 oz I believe (I could be wrong on the oz) and will be 14 weeks on Wednesday. He has the fluffiest coat I have ever seen - he looks so fat, but when you pick him up it kinda shocks you when you realize how light he is.

Toby is trained on a washable pee pad. It is actually a hospital bed pad. He does awesome on it, and will run from any room in the house to go and use his business. I am impressed and while I want to get him to start going outside, I am not going to risk parvo since their seems to be an outbreak of it around here. I wanted to ask where you guys get your pads? I have seen some for $7 and some for $22 a piece and I am lost. The one that he came with is a $7 pad and seems to be great. I found a site that sells used hospital bed pads, but the thought of someone peeing on the pad before it getting to my house kinda gives me the heeby jeebies.

Any info would be so helpful! Thanks!
