Sheltie Forum Pups Spring/Summer 2014

He is such a good boy these days!

I've been on my computer for two hours and I don't even have him in his pen. He's just chilling out on Indy's bed! LOL! He came out to check out what I was eating for dinner and then went and laid down again.

He won't tell me if he needs outside, but neither did Indy or Bacca. They both got to the point where they just held it until I let them out. I think Callan is there too.

That's house training! Now, to deal with the chewing everything in sight!

Including me!

That's the part I'm most worried about. We have a 20 month old living with us now and you just can't explain to her that she has to pick up her toys or the Oof Oof (that is how she says dog just now) will eat them.

It's going to be interesting to say the least. I'm excited about finally getting our puppy. It's a good thing I'm on vacation until it's time to pick her up. The time would drag by so slowly otherwise.
 
Don't worry Judy -- leave it can be learned quite early. You'll do fine. If Cubby can learn to leave ALL the fun stuff in the garage alone, your little girl can learn the same in the house.
 
Strange question for you all -- When Cubby gets the zoomies, he nearly always runs in a clockwise circle through the yard, the house, upstairs around the staircase walkway.

Clockwise? Do dogs have a preference for direction?
 
That's an interesting question - I'll have to pay attention to Baker's direction.

We spent the first day of camping "puppy proofing" the upper level of the deck. A lot of lattice work & a gate. Now the boys can be off leash & they love it! Baker gave it his stamp of approval this morning with a serious case of zoomies.
 
We plan to camp in late Sept/early Oct. once our shots are done. We love the area around Mt. Whitney and Mammoth (the backside of the Sierra Nevadas).

Absolutely! Brooke will ONLY go to the right, or clockwise. Tight circles, spins or big loping runs, all the same direction. We joke that if she had to go left she might fall over.. :lol:
