Charlie Weeks 2 & 3

I'm telling you what... I did not realize how much puppies want to CHEW. Charlie tries to chew everything!! Including iPad cases, the kids, clothes, the cabinets, boxes...you name it he's chewed on it. Yes he does have toys, he just prefers to play with everything other than his toys. He's learning though.

He was doing really good with house and crate training. Then he started pooping and peeing in the house right before breakfast. We have since gotten that worked out and that is no longer an issue. However he has taken to pooping in his box first thing in the morning.

He does so much better when hubby is home. I guess I need to work on my leadership skills.

We tried to go for a walk, with the stroller. Yah....that was an adventure. We will be working in that more starting next week. Just Charlie and I will be going out every afternoon to run. Should be interesting ;-)

He is snugly and cuddly and loves the whole family. All in all he is a great addition to our family. He's learning and we are learning and growing to love him as well.


Any tips or suggestions on raising a puppy?
