Playtime
It has been one week since we brought Jessie into our home. I’d say she is 90% house broken. We’re taking her out side about every 30 minutes and she has clearly made the connection: this is where you pee. Best news? Our 3 1/2 year old Golden, Riley, is enjoying her new pal.
And bedtime is the best.

Jessie comes home
We brought Jessie home today and we are once again a two-dog-family. It feels good.

She quickly found her way to Riley’s toy basket and checked out the precious green rope.

She peed on the floor a few times but that’s part of having a new puppy. But that first poop? Outside!

Riley was a little uncertain about having another dog in the house but within the first hour or so she was trying desperately to show Jessie how to play “chase.”
A full day and as regular readers (hah!) know, dogs have couch privileges in our house.

Meet Jessie, the newest member of our family. She’ll be joining us the first week of December. Riley will finally have a new butt to sniff.

Invisible Fence
For many years we’ve had an Invisible Fence surrounding our yard (and a bit more). We managed to cut that wire while digging the new well. Today Edward came out to repair the fence so it was a good time to reposition a little to avoid similar issues in the future. Edward’s trenching gizmo made quick work of it.
