I got a puppy!

[Tink]

He is a sweetheart, and a bit of a character.

He's not housetraining as quickly as I'd hoped, but I'm sure that will come in time. He's very loving and friendly, but really puts other dogs in their place when they invade his home. He went wacko when my grandkids dog came with for the weekend. He growled, snarled, and did his best to keep her away from everyone. She's normally rather agressive with other dogs, but was completely submissive to him for some reason. She spent a good part of the weekend under the computer desk to avoid him. He's also chased the neighbors male border collie and 5 month old female golden lab pup off our property a couple of times. This is HIS space and others are NOT welcome. I truly didn't expect this from a poodle or a dog so young.

He has learned the meaning of the word "NO" so is getting pretty good about dropping things he's picked to chew on that aren't on his list. He has decided pigs ears are GOOD chewing. LOL He's happiest when he's laying at my feet or following me around.

I'm really enjoying him and look forward to having tomorrow off so I can finally spend some time with him without a houseful of company. I'm going to call the vet tomorrow and see if I can get him in for his rabies vac since that's the one he's not had yet.
