Hello, Toni, Chasity, and Tammy.
We just wanted to give you an update on Louie. First of all, he has a new name, Pippin. I let Devin name him and Devin is a big Lord of the Rings fan. At least he didn't go with Gandolf.
I actually like Pippin/Pip as a name, but keep accidentally calling him Pippi. He was great in the car on the way home yesterday. Some crying at first (maybe 30 seconds), then laid down for a sleep in the crate. We stopped and got the food he's used to on the way home. When we got home we went to the yard to pee (yay!), ate supper, played, went out in the yard (pee and poop, yay again!), then played some more. He crated at 12:00 midnight (long day) and slept without a peep until 6:30! I actually woke up and took him out before he even started whining or anything. We took a walk on the leash this morning and he did really well for a first timer. He's learning 'sit' and 'come' already. I'm sure within no time he'll know his commands. He's so attentive and smart. Will keep you posted and send pics next time. Thanks!
