[K9karen]

So if I ask you to kiss Woody goodnight for me, you won't, right?

I'll kiss Kirby, but I aint kissin' no woody!!

Do they really start doing this SOOOOO young?!

I mean, you can't even see his "package" from the back

I thought those developed, and then the rest came into play

I'm beginnin to think this is First Dawg.

1) They're never "Too Young"

2) Be thankful it's the Kat BED he "likes" - and not the KAT or Your LEG!

3) The Big SNIPP won't necessarily solve this "love making problem" ...
Smokey lost his "stuff" 7 years ago - and he STILL tries to sharpen his pencil
on anything that will hold still for 30 seconds!

4) New Names?
How about "Jabber"?

No, we had dogs when I was younger, and living at home. We had Max when I was about 4, a german shep., who was not like that, and then Maija when I was about 12 , also german shep. who was not like that. The beagles we had I don't remember them doing that either, but I could be wrong. I guess that's not something I "focused" on when I was younger, or if they did do it, mom and dad told me something else?? (go figure... ). I had friends whose dogs behaved like that, but I thought they were older. I just didn't know they could start this early, that's all.

Ok... EWWWWWWWW! That would not be cool!

Oh my.... My brother's dogs aren't like that either. Even the hyper little Italian Greyhound.

4) New Names?

And just how would I explain that one to the kiddies at school?! Although, I'm sure the boys would all be nodding and saying they have the same problem themselves....

geeze
I don't know why you rolled the eyes - we all have to start somewhere. If everyone who only had dogs as a child got them as adults there'd be a LOT LOT LOT LOT LOT of people dogless and a helluva lot MORE of dogs without homes. My self included b/c the dog we had wasn't really MY dog and I didn't have much in taking care of him.

I've never had a male dog myself so I can't be much help, I do know that when you take him to a dog park you'll be seeing a LOT more of it with other dogs big, little, old and young. And girls do it as well, just as Cinder. She tries to sharpen her pencil that she doesn't have. Our dog we had as kids was male and humped on occasion but I don't remember much about him...

It may not have anything sexual behind it - it might be dominance? Maybe he thinks the only thing he can dominant is the Kat Bed!
Keegan tries to hump my walking boot!


So what IS his name????

[Pam]

he's also carrying around my vacuum cleaner attachments (why, don't know, he keeps picking them out of the holder),

I must have missed this the last time I read this thread. Bella too was captivated by my vacuum cleaner attachments when she was a puppy. She often unsnapped them from the *secure* holders on the side of the vacuum cleaner and chewed and chewed. Thankfully she got all of that out of her system before I got my Dyson!

[K9karen]

Just when I was having fun calling him The Woodster!

I think he's so happy being in a forever home, he'll adjust to a name change. He's already lived in so many places. Don't forget a new name tag, Jenn

Yikes! Thanks for the worm info..I'll be on poop patrol with Logan. Yech.

Did he flip his leggies when he was examined and put on his side? He's so sensitive. One touch sends him into a frenzy. So funny.

You're getting there, Jenn! Kirby really didn't like being told what to do. Of course, I laughed because I wasn't keeping him!

Aroo from the Princess and belly rubs from Aunt K

Jennie, how's the Kirb-ster? Has he been to school anymore?

" Update on Woody ..."

Short update....

Went to the whitecoats today because I found some icky white things in Kirby's poop this AM. Never saw any previously, so figured get him in there prior to needing the last set of shots. He's on Drontal for the worms, and got his first dose of Heartguard and Frontline free for his first puppy visit and a folder with info for me as well!

Everyone at the vet loved him, lol. He's just so happy and loving of everyone! He weighs 16.6 lbs, and the vet said he looks to be a great weight, and that the hourglass shape is how he should look whether he's 4mos, 4 yrs or 14 yrs old.

She also said he is MAYBE 3.5 months old, and that he is just cutting his baby teeth. Here I thought he might have been older than we thought (size, I guess), but nope, he's younger, lol. Dr. Hess definitely recommends obedience class for him, and she said bassets can be very aggressive when older if not trained properly. Was planning on classes anyway, because he definitely likes to get his own way and "talks" to you when he doesn't. He was being a bit of a brat with Dr. Hess so she put him on his side and he calmed down. Have to remember that trick! She also suggested a sleeping crate as well as a "time out" crate. Will have to pick another crate up, because that was a good suggestion. I'm going to pick up more puppy food tonight, as well as get some other treats.

I guess that's all for the update. He got his distemper and rabies shots tonight as well. So, I guess he's up to date on shots (unless he still needs that last set, will have to check closely on the receipt from the vet).

Whew!!! Kirby really is a handful, but so worth it!! He's just such a love!

[Cinder & Smoke]

Hmmm ...

Sounds like it's Kirby for sure, now.

Hey K9Karen ~~~
