Puppy Treats

This video was taken about a week after we got the boys.  Food is a great motivator. It did not take them long to figure out that when they came in from outside, if they sat right away, they got a treat.

Less bad dog. More good dog.

The night after Kramer's big blow out, he had another episode.  This time the dog bed was not in his cage, and he managed to avoid getting it all over him. This morning he managed to keep it all inside, but as soon as the cage door open, he darted to the back door and started to whine hard.   Poor thing couldn't get out fast enough, but at least he was able to wait. Less than five minutes after we got back in, he hit the bell hard and also darted to the patio door.  Apparently he wasn't done.  I got up and let him out again, and he wasn't just "crying wolf".  Whatever has been making him sick appears to be out of his system because he had a good day. To celebrate his success, here is a good video taken by Tammy yesterday when the pups where playing. Good Boy!

Puppy Deck Play

OK. Bit of a break from the typing.  Here is a nice video we took a few days ago after the weather warmed up a bit and melted off the snow.  The pups haven't been trained on the invisible fence yet and even if they had, it's still too muddy to let them play in the yard much. We'll post some more pics and videos as we get the opportunity.
