Bob Moves In

I'm pleased to report that Bob(though very shy indeed) seems very content in his new home. He's a little tentative after his surgery today, and walking downstairs proves a challenge on painkillers and really short legs.... but he met the husband, took a quick tour, very politely stayed out of the kitchen when instructed this space would be off-limits, and quickly found a favorite spot in front of the sofa with his sweet puppy head resting contentedly on my feet.

An hour or two later, there was one tiny mistake on the carpet. No worries, we gave it another try, introducing a small amount of water, set the egg timer for 30 minutes and after the alarm sounded, roused the poor little guy from sleep to go for a long, long, long walk. This proved the perfect Strategy. I'm happy to report that Bob now knows where the doggy bathroom is and it is not on the floor 10 inches to the right of my husband's favorite spot on the sofa. =/


No photos, I'm afraid, as husband and dog are both asleep in front of the television in a dark room... and well, Bob's shiny black coat serves as total camouflage in the dark.

....Unless, of course, you choose to believe one of two alternate theories:


a) Bob attended Hogwarts or
b) Bob is an INCREDIBLY talented scientist wayyyy ahead of the pack

you decide ===============>

Happy to have a dog in the house,
