And just think..the best is yet to come! Along with never ending surprises! Enjoy every second with your smashingly beautiful Sydney and her sis!
Congrats, Megan, she is adorable. :D They both are. Actually Sydney reminds me very much of my sister's dog Daisy (boxer/lab mix). I can't wait to hear more of their antics. My one puppy is a handful, two puppies to help each other get into things is just too much. ;) :D
Today's been pretty good, I took them both (yes, both, silly me) for a walk. It went better than I thought it would. It took a little coaxing to get Sydney to actually walk kinda nice on the leash. Bear (yes, Kate changed her named AGAIN! They've settled on Bear!) walks nice on the leash, but boy, I got tangled up! I might get a splitter for the leash, but really, Bear is only going to be with us for a few more weeks before they move out.
All's good!
Congratulations! They are so adorable! They definitely look black lab but the wrinkly foreheads also say Rotti to me! :)
Congratulations!! They're both adorable. I wouldn't get a leash coupler if I were you for taking them both on walks. They can be more disastrous than separate leashes if the dogs (and puppies especially) aren't used to walking on one.
Absolutely adorable! Nothing beats seeing a couple of cute puppies!
They are very cute. :) Congrats!
Oh, my gosh, what cuties! Oh, but puppies, what won't they get into! I also see a little of the Rottweiler in their faces especially in Bears.
They've both been doing good, Syd has really started to blossom. Syd went from shy and hardly moving to getting into everything! She's the one tearing up puppy pads and eating little things off the carpet.
One question, how often should I be taking them out? They hadn't had an accident at all in the first 36-48 hours we had them, now all of a sudden I'll catch one of them peeing on the floor in the kitchen. What should I do as far as discipline and getting them on a regular schedule?
We just got Taggart yesterday (he's 6 months old). He had two accidents in the first couple hours (oops!:eek:). After that I made it a rule that he should go out as soon as he wakes from a nap or when ever he is wandering around a lot and hasn't been out in a while.Quote:

Decide on a command to use (for example we say "get busy" my family says "take a break") and use that while you are out and while they are going. Then, if possible, have a snack handy (that's optional) and praise, praise, praise. Praise alone worked for Zoee, but I think Taggart is going to be snack motivated.
Good luck!! :D
whata lovely couple!!... I see Lab on Syd and lab/Rott on Bear...

Congrats!!! They're both adorable.:D
