His next visit is in a week and I can't wait to see what he weighs now. He's been a good night sleeper from day 1 and potty training is going slowly....right now we are working hard on play biting...little stinker has really sharp teeth!! Can't wait for this final series of vaccines so we can get out a bit more. My hubby and I are really enjoying this spunky little dude! I think it will be fun to watch our furbabies grow up here on YT:)
| Thank you for writing about Lambeau! Our boys are just a few days apart :)
We feed our dogs raw marrow bones so Pooky has been enjoying gnawing at those and it helps me keep my fingers :D Once the toy poodle had cleaned the inside of the bone, I let them bring it into the house and it works great! Yes, those teeth are SHARP! I wonder when they start to get the grown up teeth? It's interesting to watch him as he tries to find a crack the mortar of our tiles. I think he wants to eat it. I give him a, "chech," sound and he moves on. I can definitely see the mouser in him, he can get into tiny spaces with his little face. The past couple of days he's gotten comfortable enough that he's started to give me a little of the run around when I want to go inside. May have to introduce him to a harness and expandable collar to put that to a stop before he thinks it's a chase game.
Potty training has been good so far. It's more like I'm trained and sometimes I do mess up if I feel rushed. Nothing like wanting to take a shower and know it's time, take him outside with no luck(not fast enough), get into the shower, wet with soap to hear my daughter annouce that Pooky left me a wet present by the bed! :eek: I'd read and our breeder told me not to introduce Pooky to the indoors of our home until he'd gone potty outside. The breeder also didn't feed or give him much water before we met as he didn't want Pooky to get car sick so we spent a long afternoon in the garden until Pooky could produce. :) It took me a couple of days to get the rhythm. It helps that he sleeps in his purse by my pillow and when I'm ready to get up in the a.m. he goes out to do his business quickly and I reward him with claps and praise! Oh, at first, he went anywhere in the house he was allowed to be, so I soaked up the urine on a paper towel and took his stools and set them in the grass where I wanted him to go so the next time I took him out he would smell it and know that's a good place to go; cleaning up the house well. |
