My First Few Workdays

On Monday Tom and Timber had to go to work, which meant that they had to put me in the crate while they were away. The workdays started with Tom taking me for a walk, then feeding me breakfast, and then getting ready for work. Then he tried to get me into the crate, but I'm not letting him trick me anymore. I know that the treats and other good stuff he does to get me into the crate is just a trick, and I'm not falling for it anymore. :-) He did finally get me in the crate, with a little more coercion than he would have liked, and then he headed off to work. Around noon he came back, took me for a walk, played with me, ate lunch, got me back in the crate, and then headed back to work again. After his workday was done he came home, took me for a walk, played with me, trained me, and then ate dinner before he had me lay down by his side while he did some more work on his laptop. Then, just before bedtime, he and Timber took me for another walk. I'm peeing and pooping on a consistent basis and I'm eating food now. I'm starting to get worked into a regular routine and I'm looking forward to a nice long hike this weekend. Hopefully tonight (Tuesday), they will be able to find a bed for me so that I can sleep in the bedroom with them. Up to this point I haven't even been upstairs yet since they want to get me acclimated to their house slowly. But I haven't had any accidents in the house and I've been really well behaved thus far. As I continue to work with them I'll train them to be good dog owners. :-)
