After a quiet nights rest and a morning trip outside in the yard for potties Little is inside on every foster dogs fav spot. The red love seat! Never met a foster who doesn’t adore this little couch. Little is tossing around a toy that barks. You are not hearing things! 😂
Breakfast time!
Little is a nibbler and leaves a few crumbs on the floor with his tiny teeth. I’d say a small dog kibble is best. Little needs little nuggets!
He ate half his food and so I will pick it up or the ‘circling hawks’, known as my two terriers, Parson and Asti, will gobble up the remnants in a split second.
... and back to the love seat! What a cutie and easy little dude!
So the big question that’s looming in everyone’s mind:
IS HE POTTY TRAINED???
Well, I’ve had him only since Friday evening.
He did mark, lift his leg to leave his ‘calling card’ but most every male foster does that. So, evening number one he wore a belly band. It’s like a boy dog diaper that wraps around to keep the potty contained. Next day he was much better but I used the belly band somewhat, just in case. Today I have not bothered with it. He has done all real potties and pooping outside so far.
So by next week I’ll know more but for now... he’s doing GREAT!
I want you to know I have him on my first floor. If we went upstairs to the bedrooms I’d put on the belly band again. It’s too tempting to mark upstairs. It’s like a new world he has to claim. This is all normal! He is a typical foster dog. I get very few who never try to mark. He sleeps in the crate in my bedroom. 100% dry!
He is comfortable here. My dogs are older, 6 and 7, and are respectful. There is no competition or craziness. It’s super calm and chill so all I can say is he’s doing great at my house in every aspect. I would adopt Little in a heart beat!!! 💙
