First Weekend

We survived the first weekend with Dyson at home!  He did a great job during the day, the nights are still a bit of a problem, but we are slowly working things out.  I think he is training us as much as we are him, but he is certainly fitting right in to our home and seems VERY happy to be part of the crew.

A few observations:

• shoes and socks are MUCH more attractive than even the coolest doggie toy
• toes and fingers trump even shoes and socks when it comes to cool things to chew
• boys love dogs
• dogs love boys
• crates are great, at the cost of peace, quiet and just a tiny chunk of your sanity.
• bringing home a new puppy is a lot like bringing home a new baby, lots of joy and snuggles, funny smells, cleaning poo off of things that in most circumstances would be poo-free, and no sleep for mom and dad.

Caedon, Dyson and Brody take a puppy nap shortly after coming home.
