Housetraining Official

This is Sunday AM. As of last night at 9:30, Gretchen is now officially housetrained….three days from her arrival. And they said it couldn’t be done.

Details? I’d fallen asleep in front of the TV around 8:30…just a snooze…and she waited till I woke up then asked to go out. She said this like she meant it. When I let her out…Voila! “Taking care of business” (sung to tune of same). I was so proud of her. And I think she was proud of herself too, because she ran to me wiggling wildly…her favorite way to say thank you. And she did all this before bed for a change.

She pleaded to sleep outside the crate, as it’s cramped in there, but I didn’t want to press my luck. Seven days of crate training and this will be etched in stone.

Gotta thank Monk for being so tidy. I think a pee-free house goes a long way in training a newbie. And who knows what wisdom my perfect animal has imparted to the new angel. Regardless, all is well in dogville.

PS: still haven’t found the blinking power cord to the camera. agh!!!
