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.
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.
Well, it seems we are starting to get the whole "crappin' in the house" thing under control. The puppies haven't had an accident in the house since last week sometime. Its amazing what happens when you stop buying the 50 pound bag of "premium" dog food for $20 and starting getting dog food with something other than corn filler in it (Thank you Purina Pro Plan. Veterinarian recommended. Mom tested). We are under no illusion that potty training is over, but it is certainly not as stressful. With most puppies, the end of the "going to bathroom in the house" phase usually means the beginning of "we want to chew on everything" phase. Yeah! The puppies, like most grand kids, are constantly spoiled and have more toys than they know what to do with. Trainers recommend giving only one or two toys to dogs so that they learn what is and isn't theirs - too many toys confuse them. Tammy must have not been paying attention and thought ...
