Well - our life has gone to the dogs.
We're finally moving out to the farm. I don't know if I told you, but there's a trailer on our land, under "life estate". There are two old people living in it, and they don't have to move out until they die. We got a great deal on the place because of that.
Anyways - they have two dogs, Skip and Midge. I'll take pictures later. They're older dogs, and they are house dogs but run free when they go outdoors. They will be at our house a lot. I was out there for 4 hours and only one car drove by. The dirt road is so bumpy that it's impossible to speed. So I let Max out to play with Skip and Midge. They just loved eachother, and they stay right around the house. It was so nice.
Max is just so happy.
Today we're going out there again, and bringing both Jake and Max with us.
Also - it looks like we're going to keep Tony!! He's just such a little lovebucket with us. We love him to pieces. I didn't want to ask Mom if I could have them but today I was talking to my sister, and she said that Mom was hoping we'd keep him and just bring Chloe back to her. Mom doesn't have much of a bond with Tony, but she does with Chloe. It's opposite with us. Since we took them, Tony isn't dependent on Chloe anymore. So separating them won't be a problem. As it is they're often not together because he's housetrained and she isn't, so we have to keep her confined or outdoors or on a leash.
Why do you think it is that Tony is housebroken and she's not? We've been training them together using exactly the same methods.
