Well, we survived Disney and my little Oakley had lots of fun at my sister's house. So much fun that he didn't even cry for me.....he cried for my sister on day 3 when she left to go to Walmart. My sister sent me daily videos and on day 2 sent texted me a pic of her with ear plugs, lol. She asked if he ever stops barking. He's not really a barker at my house, only when very playful, but I guess her dog and 2 cats were responsible for that.
The only problem I have encountered is that at first he wasn't eating like before. Since my sister has 1 dog and 2 cats, at times she fed him from her hands. She didn't want to leave it down and the other furry ones eat it. I guess he was spoiled and expected me to do that so I did for a few days. It got to a point that I would sprinkle his kibbles on the floor and he'd gobble it up! We're now home almost two whole weeks and he finally went to his food bowl all by himself this morning like a big boy, yay. I have to admit that I weighed him this morning and before our trip he was 5.4 lbs. and now he's 4.8 lbs....my poor baby lost 6 oz. Now that he's back to his old self, I expect him to gain it all back.
Now I'm told that he sits in the living room looking at the front door waiting for me to come home from work....I had to stop at the store on the way home and my DH told me to hurry up because Oakley was there waiting. This mommy has him spoiled.
