Very true D2 my problem is I’m too easily taken in by the crying and pitiful eyes. I am rapidly learning that it’s all a big con to get my 24 hr attention 😂 he is now learning that crying doesn’t get a favourable result and today was a much better day. He’s also starting to play on his own without being prompted which he wasn’t doing before . Really feel like we are turning a corner 😊 oh and only 2 wees indoors today!

Sounds like progress is being made. D2 is spot on. I wish I had heeded that advice when Ernie was a pup. I was a total sucker and nearly 3 years on he is a demanding monster at times. We're working on it.

I also have a demanding monster at times but I know I have no one to blame but myself! We wouldn't be without them though.

I have also created a demanding monster! I didn’t even try putting him in his own bed away from me. The day he arrived he bounced up the stairs, bounced onto my bed, and he’s been there ever since. (Especially knowing his background, I find it very hard to refuse him anything. I think he might know this...)

Morning, so 2 weeks in and they've been to the vets and are all fine. Just beginning to get to their feet, and all have their eyes open
They look a bit more like dogs now, think we have homes homes for all of them too

Gorgeous!
Poppy is doing a lot of exploring and keeps picking up things that she's not supposed to. I've been using the 'leave!' command a lot and she cracks me up because as soon as I say it, she drops whatever it is and comes straight to me for a treat!

She sounds a very smart dog, Sarah. She'll be a joy to train - as long as you don't run out of treats!

That could be the problem. Must remember to keep my pockets full over the weekend. I don't use them for George anymore so have got out of the habit.

We have had a lot of playing in the garden today it’s been so nice out. Also about 4 of the local children have been over to see him I’m really glad he’s not at all scared by noise and kids. The crying is also less and the toilet breaks are usually outside now 😊 most times he walks out willingly instead of me having to carry him.
