We Finally Have Friends!!


We have gone to 2 puppy classes, and we are the best in the class. And, no, it's not because there is only one other dog in the class. We are doing very well, and it is lots of fun. We get to play with all new toys, and mom and dad have started letting us have hot dogs. They are sooo good. Sometimes we get so excited to eat them that we accidentally bite some fingers, but we really don't mean to. Mom has to keep reminding dad to only say each command once, instead of saying it over and over, especially with Marbles during the sit. We have no problem walking across the ladder, the wobble board, or the x-pen when it is on the ground. Cocoa was a little afraid of the other dog at first. He is a black german shepherd that is 10 weeks old. He is very big, and when he barks, it is very loud. Now, we just want to play with him instead of learn in class. We got some pictures of dad and Marbles and our trainer with Cocoa - mom always seems to be taking the pictures.





We finally have all of our shots. We went to the vet again on Saturday. Everyone loved us, of course. Cocoa weighs 9 lbs. 7 oz. and Marbles is still winning with 10 lbs. 6 oz. We really like getting all the attention when we go there, but we are happy to not have to go back for a while.



One of our new friends is Sierra. She is so tiny, so we feel very big when she comes to visit. She was scared of us at first, but she finally came around. We are very careful with her, so we don't hurt her. She tried to take over Cocoa's bed, but he tricked her into giving it back to him. Then he guarded it so she couldn't get back in it. They finally ended up laying in it together, but Cocoa kept an eye on her.


Mom glued Marbles' ear, and it didn't bother her too much. It lasted about a week and then came undone, and that ear went straight up again. Grandma Pat says it has to keep being reglued until she is 11 months old or it won't work, so Marbles and Mom are in for a lot of struggles over the next 6 months.







Yesterday was bath day. We can't decide if we like this or not. We do like all the attention we get afterwards. We get rubbed all over with towels and brushed. Then we get to run around like crazy!


Please let us know what you think of our stories so far in the comments below!
Cocoa decided he likes Sidney's cage . . .
so Sidney took his bed!

  1. Yay Marbles and Cocoa! Friends are fun! And good job on your classes :-) Glad you're done with shots for a while and try not to pick on Sydney too much.
