This pup is driving me bananas! LOL
I think she's a doll, very cute but the last few days...
She is trying my patience. We have had her more than two weeks now. The first two or almost two, she was really good. She was trying hard to go outside to pee and poop,not much for biting but now it seems the opposite. She is constantly biting the kids or us, and the last few days has gotten worse, no matter what the breeder or the vet told me to do. I called dh at work today and asked him to stop by a pet store on his way home and get a nice smelly, flavoured bone for her to chew on. Maybe that will help.
Yesterday, she peed twice on the floor after I tried to take her outside, she didn't want to go out. Then after the second time, I take her out and she goes again, she comes in and five minutes later she peed on the floor again. Her bladder is like a sive! Today was a bit better though, minus the time I nearly slid across the floor on it.
But she is cute! And big. I took her to the vet two weeks ago and she was 10 pounds on the nose. I took her back this past Sunday and she was 22.2 pounds. It's amazing how much she is growing. Anyhow, I had to vent about her bladder and teeth.
Thanks for listening and I will try to get some pictures up on that site soon.

as for the house breaking, I don't know what to tell you, Max has been really good about it, has had one or two accidents, but those were in the upstairs, and I think he didn't know how to tell us he needed to go out...LOL...he knows now....LOL...the first month and a half was the hardest for me.....good luck sweetie...
