Barley is just over 14 weeks right now and is doing awesome with house training.
He's learned to ring his bell when he needs to go out and is doing so consistently! He stays in his ex pen while we're at work (I go home for an hour at lunch so it's never for more than 3.5 hours at a time) and the past few days the puppy pad in the ex pen has been dry. He just waits for us to let him out to pee outside!
He sleeps in his crate from 11-7:30 without a peep. He's also stopped barking at the cat but still tries to play with him - the cat is not having any of it! haha
He was pretty mouthy for a while but we're learning it's not okay to bite hands. He's never bitten hard - more like mouthing than biting, but we're just redirecting to toys and it's going well.
We're FINALLY getting his third set of shots this Friday and then we can take him for walks! I'm so excited, I think he's SO ready to explore outside the yard.
So proud of my handsome little man! Not to say he's not a pain sometimes though haha - he's always underfoot and dives into his water bowl and makes a giant mess. He also tries to herd our toddler a lot which is quite useful actually but makes our toddler mad.
Here's some new pics from last weekend - he loves chasing bubbles!
