a-okTopic: General Puppy Talk
Sly was such a good puppy today. Since his daddy had to work most the day and I'm awaiting my start date at Dell, Sly and I just hung out all day. We played games all day, slept, and even went on two walks. Despite all that he's still running around wanting to play. He's such a character and I find it amazing how his own llittle personality has developed.
The only really issue Chris and I have with Sly is his housebreaking which is our own fault. When we first purchased Sly we lived in an apartment where we weren't even suppose to have animals so we didn't start him out properly. We basicly crate trained him. Now that we've moved I've been trying to get him to go outside and it's getting better slowly. When he first got here he would just go where he was maybe b/c he wasn't use to being here or possibly being defiant. Who Knows? But I'm proud to say that today was the first day in 5 days I didn't have to pull out the steam vac to clean up a mess. We just have to remember to follow the tips posted on this site and BE CONSISTENT! It's just so important.
Honestly, when Chris and I got Sly we knew nothing about Jack Russells and all the attention they demanded. We were shocked when he started speeding around the apartment due to lack of excerise and ripping up things b/c he was left alone when we had to work. Now that we've done our research we're able to understand who he is and why. I'm hoping this site helps owners of Jack Russell Terriers better understand them.
