When's the first boat trip?!?!

Haha, Ellie just discovered that there is a sound making squeeze toy inside. The shocked look on her face was hilarious ..

Now I know why these dogs look so familiar!

The devil inside the devil inside

Tuscany, not so much.

Just saying.

Hopefully you want Tusc to post more pics and not me to post less!

Of course I want more pics, that's the purpose of the post!! It's like Tuscany is holding out on us!!!!

Haha, she is going from baby stages to full blown puppy stage right now.
Every part of my hands are raw from her biting.
My wife is ready to kill me right now because I was playing with her on our bed before taking her out for her early morning pee. Yeah, our down comforter and duvet cover is in the washing machine and my life is in serious danger right now...

I thought her early crying at the door was puppy genius potty training, but reality has set in. We’re training a crazy, wild, attacking, pooping and peeing bundle of cuteness and fun.

I STILL want to name Marzen Wicket. It's not like he responds to his name anyway, we can still change it.

I'm sure Katie has names for you too and she would like to change it to something.

What breed of puppy is this T?

She ain't the only one.

Tuscany, congrats Ellie May...she is a bundle of cuteness. And glad you went with your gut as personality is key to bonding. MOAR pics please.

If I may, a couple of secrets for overnight training. Stop feeding and watering past 6. Get up every X hours (usually age in Months to start), then increase it a half hour a day (if they can't make it 30 minutes, try 15). If she's a fast grower like Pumpkin (Shepherd Mix) their bladders grow pretty fast. By week 10 to 12, it's a good shot they are sleeping thru the night. Trick is to wake them before they have to do their business, otherwise, if you wait to wake up until they whine, good shot you'll have either a wet floor and/or whiny dog in the morning (who may really need to do their business or just want attention).

Also, if you can get a set of bells on a string, hang them on the doorknob of the main entrance/exit door. Ring those bells when they whine, but before you take them out. If the dog is smart, they will start equating hey, I need to go out with the bells. Particularly helpful if your dog isn't the whiny type (or whines all the time). If your dog is REALLY smart, as they get older they will ring the bells any/every time they want a whiff of sunlight, but that's usually after they are housebroken, so less risky wean them off at that point (if they are excessive bell ringers).

YMMV, best of luck.
