We got to go pick up our little bundle of joy yesterday morning, and let me tell you, it was an interesting day. She did so well though, adjusting. Her crate is in our bedroom right next to our bed. Well, once i showed her where it was and put her front paws in it, she had no problem going in there on her own and laying down. It was actually kind of hard to get her out of there!
We did have a couple potty accidents, but nothing too big. I've been making a lot of trips outside to no avail, but I think this is just her and I learning one anothers schedule. She slept through the night without whimpering or whining, which I was totally shocked by. I did hear her at about 6:30 and realized "uh oh", she had to go potty, but it was too late. I think I will set an alarm to get up and let her out in the middle of the night though.
her temperament is lightening up and she is getting playful with us. I'm a big guy (6', 250), so when I move around, I can tell it intimidates her at times, so I am trying to move gently (in a 112 old Victorian home with floors that creak lol) I have someone coming to let her out while I'm in class so that she gets to make it out every 2-2.5 hours. Still, I can't help but keep checking the doggy cam...
Here are pictures from her first day at home! Her and my wonderful girlfriend have bonded through sleep. It's pitiful. lol
