Dog, days 8-13
Jan. 22nd, 2009 03:05 pm"Mungo, what is best in life?"
Good: Chewing on his rawhide bone.
Better: Getting petted. A roll in the warm grass on a sunny afternoon.
Bliss: Getting petted while lying in the warm grass, chewing on rawhide. (Actually, I think he would stop chewing if I started petting him.)
Our new family member seems to be settling in fairly well. We haven't had a house training accident since Sunday. We bought him a furry squeak toy, and after initial puzzlement, he seems to have accepted it as something else he may chew on. He's not impressed with the squeaker, though.
Crate training hasn't turned out the way we had in mind. ( Mungo runs loose )
