Piglet the puppy goes cracker-dog!

[housepiglet]

Aagh... I'm exhausted with the puppy! She's a darling (when she's sleeping) but my hands are covered in bites and scratches, she's pooing and peeing everwhere (doesn't seem to be 'getting' the pee in the garden thing, despite happily wolfing down the treats she gets for performing in the right place--often plays in the garden for 10 minutes and

Awwww SO CUTE. It's so hard to be angry at them for peeing on things when they're so FREAKING ADORABLE. Bah. CUTENESS.

I love your Piglet updates. :D

OMG!!!! Piglet is so cute!!! She's AWESOME!!! You're going to be totally exhausted from this. But it'll be fun. All my cat does is sleep in the chair then get up and want me to put food in her bowl.

Oh, do you get a show called The Dog Whisperer with Cesar Milan? You know he is RSL's hero. You shuld get one of his videos and watch it, he works magic with overexcited dogs.

Pigletbabe is beautiful; my Blink wants to be her Mommie dearest (not)...I showed her the video, and frankly, she wasn't bothered.

However, Buster barked at her when she squeaked and squawked! He wants to be her big brother and teach her things, like cocking her leg, chasing shadows, stealing shoes out of the wardrobe and then chewing them and following that up with the practised adorable look, 'You can't beat me Mommie, I'm tooooooo pwecious!'

Wire thingy's a bit worrying...never had a dog that did that...obviously ALL of my dogs have been uber trained and are uber intelligent!!!!!

Honey used to roll in shit...
Christie used to eat it...
Angus used to attack dogs five times his size...
Ginnie would fight anyone, anytime...grrrrr...
Rosie liked to lie in our bed...ALL the time...
John does as he's told and does a nice line in begging....oh, no, he's the husband!!!!

Oh, she's so cute! What a little bundle of energy and joy!

Welcome to the world of raising a toddler with four legs and poor verbal skills. :) We had a terrible time getting Rocket house-trained because the place where he was born had a hard floor. He associated softness beneath his feet (a grassy yard) with "time to pee!" And so he'd wet his bed or on the rugs. He didn't get the right way straight in his head until he was older and spent more time outside.

My husband thinks I'm nuts, but I taught Rocket to associate the act with the word. So now I can say, "Let's go. Pee-pee walk," and he'll obligingly trot up to the top of the driveway and do his business. :)
