Sam I Am Posted June 29, 2017 Author Share Posted June 29, 2017 Mummy blog...continued. (Please ignore this post if my maternal instincts are driving you batty) Last night. Excellent. Sam went into his pen, whimpered for a nano second, got told to be quiet and there wasn't a peep out of him till this morning. He hasn't messed once in the house or the x pen. Having said that we do take him outside a lot. The clicker as I have said previously makes commands so much quicker. At least for me. He can be across the yard, I click and he is beside me right away, sits, and waits for his treat. When going potty he looks at me while in the process, waiting for the click so he can have a special treat. It's crazy but it's working. I am also amazed at Rosie. Rosie since Jock died, has been a rather quiet and somewhat timid Scottie. Sam s arrival has changed that whole scenario. That tail is pointing right up, she charges around the yard like she is queen of the world. Engages SAM in play all the time, and is having the time of her life. At the moment she is looking into his pen and whining because she wants to play. He is having his morning nap after much running around and playing. One observation I have noticed is that if he doesn't get enough shut eye he becomes rather naughty. I was reading up that puppies need 19-20 hrs of sleep a day. So what I do if he doesn't go to sleep on his own in the kitchen, I put him in his crate and konks out right away. The journey continues...watching Sam and Rosie becoming the best of pals. 6 Quote Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened. - Anatole France Adventures with Sam &Rosie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam I Am Posted June 29, 2017 Author Share Posted June 29, 2017 (edited) I know Helen and PK...I thing he is lulling us into a sense of goodness. Lol There are signs of a Cairn Terrier ist in the near future. Yikes. He does need watching constantly because everything in his mind is chewable! But really how can this innocent wee face hide evil intent.

pkcrossley Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 "But really how can this innocent wee face hide evil intent." yeah, that's what we all say when showing pictures of mauled furniture and gouged walls, crashed fences, broken arms from being dragged down the street, empty cupboards, flat tires, sinkholes. you watch yourself. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus: Nipped ankles and fingers, downed baby gates, unravelled rugs, chewed-through shirt pockets (that formerly held treats), exhumed garden plantings, disemboweled toys by the dozen?...

Idaho Cairns Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 He is merely on a quest to taste, feel, smell, educate himself on his new environment--valuables left in his classroom are the human's errors, not the dog's. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oscar's mom Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Has Rosie re enacted this picture yet lol 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynn in TN Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 I'm laughing so hard. I'll add a few, holes in sheetrock walls, stolen food, food stolen from the garden, torn screen doors, the dust covers on the bottom of the couch and box springs ripped off. Oh how I miss the puppy days they are so much fun..... Kelly always liked play with drink bottles, well one of my sons left their Mt Dew (the lid was on tightly, they thought it would be safe) setting on the coffee table. Kelly knocked it off and sunk her teeth in it. Lol Mt Dew was dripping off the light fixtures, running down the walls, she was soaked and was excited so she was zooming through the house. It took 2 days to get all the sticky stuff off everything. Those were the days... Yes all of it was our fault except for the hole in the sheetrock, that was the mouses fault for being in the wall.... Hahahaha 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam I Am Posted June 30, 2017 Author Share Posted June 30, 2017 Oscars mum, funnily Rosie is not overly concerned about sharing her toys. That picture bring back such fond memories of Jock.

Sam I Am Posted June 30, 2017 Author Share Posted June 30, 2017 (edited) So I am going to leave this thread and start on the blog area in this forum. It's going to be "SAM growing up". If you would like to follow and contribute (if you want) , it will be a tale of a crazy Cairn pup growing up in our house with his very big sister Rosie.
