Interesting Xmas Morning

[Bruce's Dad]

So it was an interesting morning introducing Bruce to the kids... We woke the kids up at 5:30 as my wife and i didn't want to try to keep the pup that quiet... The kids walked right past him and my oldest (10y/o) actually stepped around him. They walked right past the dog bed filled with dog toys and the big box that the play yard came in.... We actually had to point him out to the kids before they realized there was a puppy in the house. and I was worried about the kids being to overwhelming for him, but it was the other way around, he had to be in the action while the kids opened their gifts... the only pain is getting my 7y/o ADHD daughter to listen about not giving the puppy mixed signals... Bruce has been doing very good though and seems to be enjoying exploring his new digs...

Sounds like a perfect Cairn Christmas morning to me! Can't wait to see pictures!

Ohhh sounds like everything went according to plan (all except the kids ignoring him) I bet Bruce is all pooped out and resting as that is what puppies do. I'm so glad for you and your family with the latest addition. This next week will definitely be interesting as I'm sure the kids are home from school. Enjoy your time and can't wait to see pictures.

Oh yeah! The digging in the dirt on the nose look! Bruce is very handsome!!!

[pindrop]

oh my goodness....what a cutiepie with "dirt" on the end of his nose. So curious at that age too. Investigates everything. More pics please. (we need a puppy fix!)

Yes, Bruce is a dog showing his cairn credentials at an early age. He'll only dig bigger as he gets bigger!

[Dempsy's Mom]

He is a very pretty boy. The Christmas story is to funny and his first video is very Cairn. Congrats and get ready for an exciting new year!

He's adorable and pure Cairn in every way. Keep the photos/videos coming!

Speaking of giving the puppy mixed signals. I have a hard time getting adults not to do that! Ripley knows a few specific commands (sit, down, off, sit pretty, crawl, speak, no, leave it, and be sweet) Don't say "down" if you want her "off" the couch, Mom and Dad! I forgot about "Raus!" That means go away.
