School Days

Well I have been getting ready to go back to school. The puppy has come with me to school and everyone loves him. I told my boss that he should be our school mascot. It is going to be hard leaving him when I go back. I have been trying to get ready for it. He barks a lot when I leave him so I don't like it. Right now I am trying to buy a barking thing, so he stops.

I set up a cage with all his stuff. I bought him a little carpet square, his kennel was in there, his food and water and his pee pad and tray. I left him for 3 hours and when I came back it was like a tornado hit the cage. Things were everywhere. He had ripped the side off of his carpet. He ripped up the peepad. He peed and pooped on the carpet square and the carpet protector that I bought him. His toys were in the pee. And he was sitting on the tray where the pee pad was supposed to be. I talked to the vet today and he said until he was at least 12 months old, he said that he needed to be in the little kennel when I was gone. So I am nervous to leave him during the day. He will be lonely. Hopefully all will go well.

Sleepover

Well I went to a stamping party tonight. I have never had the want or have felt the need to stamp, but a friend was throwing it so I wanted to go. You know when you go to these parties you feel like you have to buy something, which is fine. The friend who had the party is going to be keeping the puppy over night tonight and for much of the day tomorrow. I am going to be going to the fair with my dad. It is an annual thing that we do. My friend and her daughter love the puppy and so I feel comfortable leaving him there. It is weird though not having him here. We have our little routine and it is just not the same. I have to admit, I miss him. I just keep looking over to the spot where his little crate is and he is not there. I am programmed. I hope he doesn't cry tonight. We shall see how his first sleepover went.

Disappointment

I turned 30 last month and am having a birthday party and housewarming on Saturday. It is disappointing that many of my close friends will not be able to attend. It just doesn't seem right. I wish my sister could come and and my other close friends. Well I just have to make the best of it.

The puppy today had a long day. I took him to school to get prepared for the school year. Some of the other teachers came to school with their kids. They played with Huey and ran up and down the hall with him. He has been so tired since we have gotten home. He has rested for most of the afternoon. He is a really good dog and I think I have made a great decision to keep him! He is laying right next to me sleeping like a little baby.

A Change of Heart

This weekend my mom came to help me because I am having a party soon. The puppy took to her like flys to peanut butter. She doesn't like dogs and yet this one warmed her. I can't simply get rid of this dog is she likes him. That is a number on approval. He has grown on me as well. It is hard, because some times I think it would be nice to have someone else have him who want to play with him and let him be a puppy. But then I think well I will miss that little face and who will follow my every move? So I am pretty sure that I am keeping the puppy. For now it is a good match.

Day 6

Well I have decided that it is important that Huey gets a good home. I feel that I cannot keep him. He needs a place where he will be payed more attention. He is a good boy. I took out an ad in the local paper, but I am hoping that someone I know wants to buy him. My friend is interested, so I hope he can go there instead of someone elses house where I cannot see him any more. He has made a lot of progress in doing thing the past couple of days. He does get up too early. I cannot seem to make the adjustment. He also wants me to be right by him and I need to get things done. Pray that my friend comes through and takes him home with her. She would love hima and I would be able to love my little puppyface.
