New Payson Pictures!

Things are going well with him, he has become much more active and comfortable with us and the kitties. He is finally learning how to play and have fun. He still hasn't quite figured out the art of playing fetch, but I'm sure it's just a matter of time. Right now he seems to enjoy chasing his toys which is a big step as how just a couple of weeks ago he didn't even take notice of them.

Potty training is still a bit of an issue, I think mainly because he hates going outside. I know that with time he'll get it.

He will also be starting obidience school next month. Both Alexa and I will be going to the classes with him.

Anyways, here are the pictures!

His first bath :)

SOOOOOOO CUTE! It's about time. ;) I loved the teaser pic you gave me but that last picture is absolutely wonderful. He's too adorable. I'm so glad he's fitting in nicely with his new mommies.
Those pictures outside make him look soooo tall!

How's everything with him and the kitties?

They do! He's only 15" at the shoulder!

He LOVES the kitties, the kitties however don't share the love! However they have their area baby gated so they can get away whenever they get sick of him trying to play. He seems to get along really well with Lina's (Alexa's younger sister) kitten. They play together all the time, he likes to pounce in front of her in an attempt to get her to chase him. Then he'll start to run and when he notices that she isn't chasing him he'll do it all over again!

Awwwww!! What a cutie! Gotta have that token first bath picture! I love it! I'm so happy to hear that things are going well and that he likes the kitties. I'm sure he'll come around to the potty thing in no time. Have you been giving him treats every time he goes potty outside? :)

**hugs**

Those eyes! Man, those eyes would melt the hardest heart - and the post-bath pictures he looks so handsome and CLEAN! Better hope Micki76 doesn't spot these - she might be tempted to steal him for her terrier madness! ;) He's seriously adorable.

Thanks for the PM Karen, I might've missed this thread if not for you. :)

Yep, he would fit right in at my house, lol. He's a cutie! But he's safe - Chester has a thing against other boys in his house or yard.

I didn't realize he was so tall. He and Chester both are lucky & have those long legs. Must be nice, I have stubby legs myself. :p

I've had a couple of fosters who hated going outside, and it can make potty training tough. Sometimes it just takes time for them to realize that nothing bad happens to them outside anymore.

I will admit that I sometimes forget to bring out his treats with me, but I always make sure to praise him and get all excited and tell him what a good boy he is. But thankfully he seems to respond to that much better than treats.

Payson is an adorable pup. I love those beautiful eyes.:)
He kind of reminds me of an Italian Greyhound in size &
proportions. I'm glad to hear he's fitting right in & feeling
more comfortable.:)
