New addition

It's been four years since we had a puppy in our home.

Max just took to Fergus right away.

Now on the other side Fergus is giving Benny a hard time. Keeps growling at him so to keep

him at bay.

I hope he warms up to the puppy, since we felt that Fergus was needing some companionship.

What a busy day yesterday. 

First we drove to our sons to pick up a crate for Benny. We have crate trained all of our pets.

Then we dropped off Fergus at the groomers.

She was very helpful and told us what shampoo to get and how to apply it. It's been awhile since I 

bathed a puppy. Fergus has always had a groomer.

I have always put the shampoo in the palm of my hand and applied it to their coat then rinsed it off.

So off to the breeders to pick up Benny!!

Brought him home and the first thing we did was bathe him.

Kerri said to put a quarter of the shampoo in a spray bottle with water. Then squirt it on rub it into the

coat then use the sprayer to rinse it off. I was so happy to see that there weren't any fleas.

We bathed him in the kitchen sink on a towel......I know I made sure I sanitized the sink when I was

done.  When he reaches 16 weeks and has had his rabies shot my groomer will take over.

Here is Benny after his bath.

Then we went back for Fergus and brought Benny with us. Our groomer clipped around his eyes and butt. Thank Goodness!!

Then back home for the two to get acquainted.  

Fergus is still not too happy with Benny. Fergus likes to bark at people going by. Good watch dog.

Benny on the other hand doesn't bark and Fergus's bark scared him back into his crate.

 Time will tell.

Benny seems to be adapting well. Slept from 10 last night till 5 this morning when Fergus woke me.

The two of them went outside . 

Then I fed the little fellow and back outside he went to finish up.

No accidents inside. The breeder said that he has been going out now for awhile.

He has mastered the stairs. That didn't take long.

I tried putting him back in his crate but he cried for a half an hour so I let him lie with me.

We both fell back to sleep on the couch with Fergus at my feet.

At 6:30 Mr WWH said what is this......

He's right not to get into this habit. Felt sorry for the little fellow. He is only 5 lbs.

Well a new day and a new adventure...............
