Oh how very wonderful - a new baby in the house - I'm so jealous!!!!! :D
Karen, Thank you very much for the poem I didn't see it last night and it made me cry reading it.
Candy, I think the main reason they wanted them to go is b/c of the rambuctiousness etc. It was the vaccinations, they got them on Sat.
She is eating and drinking well. I woke up this am with her eating and drinking Kylie's food. :eek:
The first night wasn't bad at all. I put her in the crate(I did buy a smaller crate, so I can transport Kylie when I need to)
But that lasted about a half hour!! :o Kylie just sat and watched the crate. So I got her and put her in bed with me, which caused Kylie to disappear. I was so afraid of falling asleep and her falling off the bed. So I took her outside real quick, by the time we came back in I was freezing my teeth were chattering so I got Keegan under one arm and Kylie under the other which went over well also.!! :o And shut the 3 of us into the bedroom. Keegan went under the bed and fell asleep she spent most of the night there. Then about 5oclock I woke up to the smell of poo, I just thought, OK she had an accident no biggie. So I got up, and checked Keegan and it wasn't her. Then I looked at Kylie and she must have had diarrhea and she was scootin across the floor and had it all over her butt!!! :eek:and the floor :eek:
So I got her into the bathroom and shut the door and tried to wash her butt off, which was not fun at all!!!poor thing.I got most of it off her and she was able to clean herself of the rest. ugh! So then we went back to sleep and when I finally got up, Keegan had a couple accidents and I took her outside and she went again and she is doing fine. I love to see her hop all over the place.
Unfortunately, I don't live near family, and we just had 2 people quit at work so I can't sneak home to check on her. My heart is going to be breaking the whole time, I just know it. With the 2 people quitting there was just no way I could get the time off. :(
I will post again after work!!
Poor Stace, sounds like a bit of a rough night for you and Kylie. Kylie might have gotten the diarrhea from being stressed out. Hopefully she will warm up to Keegan soon and feel better.
Your poor carpet :eek: Sounds like it needed a good cleaning this morning!!
Don't worry, I'm going through the potty training experience with Founder too. Although she is so reluctant to mess up her house, she'll usually crawl in to the bathtub and go in there :eek: I think she is too shy to go in front of me still when I take her outside. She will go but it takes 30-40 minutes of walking around out there.
oh the adventures of puppy years!!!!
poor Kylie!!!!
the best of luck to the three of you!!!
(you made me chuckle. i know how they hop...it is sooo cute.)
Staci,
If it makes you feel any better, both Honey and Lilly came home to me at six weeks old. Of course, Honey has her issues, but considering the environment she came from, she was probably better off leaving when she did!! Although I have learned in the last year or so that it is better to keep them with "mom" until they are 8 weeks old.
Both of my girls have adjusted fine, and have become quite the well-behaved babies. I know your Keegan will do the same. Just love her and keep those warm clothes out, so you can jump into them and take her outside for a quick break in the cold nights!! :eek:
Kylie....you will get used to this new intruder. I'll be you and Keegan will become fast friends!!
Welcome Keegan!!! How exciting! Contrats, Staci! Ahhh....you're first puppy 'episode' for us to 'enjoy' vicariously through you!! :D :D :D :D You're poor carpet! Yikes! :eek: I hope everything works out ok for the 3 of you! Be sure to smell that puppy breath and take lots and lots of pics for us!!
I am so glad to hear about you new little one. Sounds like you are doing a great job with her. Keep it up!
Keegan is a very pretty name, I'm so happy for you, nothing like Puppy Love.
Jackie
I am so happy that Keegan is home - and named!! ;) She sounds soo cute! Sorry about poor Kylie's bad night. I hope she feels better soon. I bet it was just the stress.
Welcome home Keegan! :) :) :) And congratulations to our proud mommy Staci! Staci, how excited you must be! The mommy of a premie! :D I'm sure the coming days will be filled with so much joy, laughter, happiness and exhaustion! :D Can't wait to hear the daily updates on our latest, most blessed new family member here at Pet Talk! :) PLEASE, give kisses to Keegan all over her precious self!
I didn't want to miss out on the congratulations!!!! Oh, the puppy days. They are priceless!!! Take a wiff of that puppy breath for me, would ya?
Any pictures yet? Huh, huh?
How's poor Kylie feeling today?

Oh, how well I remember all adaptations one makes when one has a "baby" in the cold months. :rolleyes:Quote:

Staci, we need a Keegan update....
Rachel, as the mom of one winter baby to another, I remember those cold mornings well!! I am sure the neighbors enjoyed the sight of me walking through rain, sleet, slush and snow with my winter coat over my bathrobe and my pjs saying "ok Bella let's go potty" while my teeth were chattering. :eek:
She is doing wonderful. I haven't got her signals down quite yet. She cries when she is in her crate, which breaks my heart.
This is too funny:
The first night, Monday, she must not have wanted her poop in her crate. When I came home, there was a little terd(am I allowed to say that?) on the outside of the crate!! She must have put her little butt up against the door and pooped thru it!!
It was too funny!
She is so darn cute!
Kylie is doing better, I think it was due to stress. Tho she refused to sleep with mom last night so the bed was very lonely!! I just think Keegan is too little, I am afraid she will fall off the bed.
Kylie isn't overly thrilled with Keegan, lots of batting and hissing but it has only been 2 days. And she hasn't lost her appetite. I just hope she doesn't think, I don't love her anymore, b/c Keegan is taking alot of time. But I knew that!
I must confess, I went out the other night, in just my flannel pjs and slippers. No Coat!
And it was about 35 degrees!!! I know better, trust me! I do! Which explains why my teeth were chattering!! :D :D
