Ok, so I am a bad bad person. But, you got to understand that it is the holidays and my Beta and I are busy. She got to the chapter, but then messaged me saying I should expand on something in there. However, Connor, my new puppy came yesterday. We spent the weekend buying him stuff (half he can’t use yet, but hey he can sometime!) finish decorating and light hanging. Monday was a huge push for the house to be ready, which included the flea powder bombed room for the cats stuff.
We were up SUPER late working on that, and I had to wake a 5am to get ready and go get Connor. Now, to be truthful, I was scared that he wasn’t coming. That I got scammed. So huge relief when his plane got in, and I got him. He was thrilled to see me. Then he got a trip to Marty’s workplace to get the zip ties removed from his crate and get held. And let me tell you, he is a snugglebug!
We had another trip to the pet store, because the boy loves to chew on stuff and he needed a collar. After mucho money on him, we brought him home again. And no sleep last night because he cried all night. 🙁
We had to leave him today because of prior commitments, and my husband reported that he looked for me, in my computer chair and my side of the bed, crying the whole time. Currently, he is sleeping on the chair in the legs so I can’t go anywhere.
Tomorrow is the dreaded 8 week shots. Fun!! So we will be taking him and Missy Princess, who does not like him, to the vet. More Fun!!! Maybe they will bond in mutual misery? LMAO!!!!
So I have the promised chapter and will get on it. AND because it is Wednesday, I will try to work on the next chapter. Just no egg throwing or grumpiness. I am trying! I am also the person who has to visit the Dr’s with my dad, so I have that going for me.
I saw your pics on FB, too…what an adorable pup! And I’m kind of partial to the name Connor as it’s what we named our son. : )
It fits him and he is already answering to it. When my hubby suggested it, it just fit for some reason. You should have seen him charging out of the room to greet me when I called his name.. He is the ultimate cutie pie.
Goldens are the best dogs ever. Except for her obsession with tennis balls, our Sasha is perfect. Following the advice of the breeders we got her a tennis ball to play with and now she would run herself into a heart attack if we didn’t stop throwing the back for her….even though she still stares at the ball whimpering, waiting for us to keep throwing it. It’s her only vice, and she is the best dog with our kids. Good luck to you and Conner.

This is my first. So far so good. We have had a couple of accidents, but our first dog is helping us out here. We learned that positive reinforcement is working so much better, and Connor is so much loving than Bear so far. But as my hubby says, Love given is love returned.
So far he loves the cats toys better than his except for the cow. Don’t know why, but it is soaking wet. But every time he goes out to the living room, he steals another toy from them. He is so proud of each and every one he gets. He is right now is asleep by my feet.
