 Puppy day!!

Today I ran some errands to get ready for the puppy. I went to the feed store for puppy food as well. I came back home and set up the crate and the outdoor fenced in area. I did about an hour of research about house training and an hour about how to greet other dogs because I have two at my house. Finally, the puppy came at around 6 pm. His name is Scampi and he's about 12 weeks old. He is a rescue from South Carolina and is so sweet. We played with him outside for a bit before bringing my other dogs out. They did really well meeting each other and ended up playing for a long time. We brought him inside and watched him and fed him dinner.  


hours:

errands: 2h

set up: 1h

research: 2h

puppy time: 4h 

total: 9h

Weekly Reflection #2

     This week has definitely had some ups and downs. Monday was very normal, but then Tuesday Flip got a little hurt when his foot got shut in the door. We ended up bringing him to the Humane Society later in the week. It ended up just being a few soft tissue and tendon problems and nothing was broken. it definitely restricted what we could do for the rest of the week as he wasn't really allowed to run around very much in case he injured it more. He limped for the first few days but definitely is getting better now. My mom is taking him to the vet on Monday to get him cleared so that he can potentially be back up for adoption.       We have been working more on his training and he has gotten very responsive to his name when we call it. I think it is very beneficial to have two other dogs who are responsive to their names around him because it influences him and helps him understand what we want. He sits on his own now when we call his name which is ve...

 Today I was only home for the morning and afternoon because I’m sleeping at my friends house. I woke up last night to let Flip out to pee. He went back to bed with me until around 8 when I woke him up for breakfast. We went on a long walk with my dogs and then he hung out with my sister and I. I brought him with me to pick up my friend that needed a ride. He has been getting carsick recently so I have to be careful. Once back home, he took a nap with me in my bed. I packed up my stuff for my friends house and said goodbye.  Hours:  night: 30 mins breakfast/walk: 2h play: 1h drive: 1.5h nap: 2h total: 7h

 Today my friends and I went to Goose Pond where we have a small cabin. We put the docks in and hung out. Flip came with us and was so good. He met a ton of new people and ended up coming on the boat. He fell asleep on my lap for most of the boat ride. When we were at the cabin, he waded in the water a bit and we are yet to see if he wants/likes to swim. I drove him home and he took a long nap. When my mom got home, I headed to my friend's house for the night.  Hours: boat day: 6h nap: 2h total: 8h
