Bit on the chilly side here this morning. Had a little snow yesterday too. Probably less than 2 inches or so Debating whether or not to blow off drive. Did shovel off deck while Molly observed. She's getting used to stuff around here slow but sure. Has been an active pup but also sleeping a lot, mostly in the afternoons which gives me time to do things around here. Housebreaking routine is coming along fine. She's starting to learn that when I say outside, we are going potty. It's gotten to the point where I really don't have to go out with her much anymore. She is using my deck for a giant pee pad
But not every time. Doesn't matter. Just s long as she does it. If she has to do the other job, she beelines of the deck and head to the yard. Then comes running back when she's done. So we are getting there. Course we have misses in the house yet as I don't always catch her soon enough. Toys and I are keeping her busy. She doesn't seem to be interested in chewing on shoes or that kind of thing other than playing with my slippers while I have them on my feet. Loves of grab hold and snarl and growl while I wiggle my toes in them. She's adopted my other pair of shoes as her pillow for nap time
House cleaning day today, once the fur ball settles down. Been busy getting stuff ready to head north on Saturday. Baked some butter cookies and made some apple sauce yesterday. Will make a pumpkin pie to take along tomorrow. Need to pick up a few things at the store as well. Then pack up stuff that's on the bed so we can roll out on Saturday morning. Be interesting to see how she likes the changes going up there. Have to get a new housebreaking routine going as no fenced yard to go out in. But ti's only for a week. She needs to be exposed to other thins besides wheat's around here. Have discovered she's afraid of moving vehicles, so will have to work on that. It's okay to have a dog who respected vehicles but not terrified of them. Something new to learn about.
Made first initial trip to vet on Tuesday. Had planned to just do a meet and greet and make appt. for visit, but they weren't busy at the time and one vet said she would be glad to see her. Did find out that she has Coccidia, so she is on antibiotics. Noticed she was having a little diarrhea on Sunday. Is doing fine now. Will finish up antibiotics end of week. Also got some deworming stuff, flea and tick stuff, hearworm meds etc. Only cost me $6.02 as had coupon for first checkup from the AKC for registering her. Did have to pay for anitbiotics though.
Donna glad you are planning to vamoose on some day trips. Know that feeling of wanting to get out and go. Anita, can relate to your mind working full time when you are trying to sleep Been there and still doing that
