Puppy Tales...

new toy!

Mom and Dad went to TSC yesterday and bought us this awesome rope toy! man is it huge! dad says it weighs a good 10 pounds and must have at least 50 ft of rope on it....do ya think it will last longer than a week? probably not with bela and kirby around...they have destroyed more rope toys than you can imagine...I still can't figure out how they get the knots out of the ends...guess that is something I have to work on..bol
I got into some major trouble on Sunday....dad bought all of us a beef puff to chew on and when Evan sat next to me I bit him, then I snapped at Nick...holy crap was dad mad!!!!he grabbed me by the back of the neck and was yelling at me..I was so scared. them mom intervened and told dad to knock it off that wasn't going to teach me anything..... so I had to lay down on the floor while the boys took turns taking my chewie away and if I got snappy mom and the boys would flip me over on my back and hold me there until I submitted. then yesterday mom tried to take away my bone and I snapped at her hand....not good...all of a sudden I was on my back again and told to "no bite" and then she took my bone away for a while. when she gave it back and then tried to take it I let her this time....I don't like being flipped on my back. she also told dad that the little boys would be feeding me from now on...guess I need to know that I am at the bottom of the pecking order and the little boys are above me and not some toys I can bite and be naughty to.

walk!

today since it was kind of nice in the morning...mom took me out for my first real walk! we went a couple of blocks and mom says I did really well for my first time with her! we met some new people...it is amazing how puppies bring out the friendliness in people we don't know..... I was kind of shy and didn't go up to people right away.....must be the GSD in me. so mom is thinking these walks are going to have to happen all the time now so I get more socialization. she also is teaching me the commands "halt" and "heel" and since I am not quite getting it...she is going to take daddy (kirby) along with us the next time so he can show me what to do.

Lilly and other news....

lilly will be going home with Leena on Sunday and then heading down to Texas to live on an Army base once her husband returns from Iraq! I wish them all the best in their new adventures and many years of happiness!!

News about Jaeger who has been renamed by his new owners to Buddy...perfect name for my sweet boy! he is doing great in his new home and adjusting well. he even has new friends.....cats! and is doing great with them. I am so glad all is working out for him and his new family!

I have changed the primary photo to that of Diesel now....the Ooops litter has all gone on to new homes. Diesel will be staying in our home so this is now his page. I will still keep everyone posted on all the pups through this page.

To all the families that have taken on one of the Ooops litters pups..thankyou! I hope they all bring you many years of joy. I am sure going to miss the stampede of puppy paws through the house....
