Grimm's Faery Tales. Come see the show, dammit.
Grimm Puppy Tales. Grimm has finally mastered the front stairs. When I'm home and the front door is open, he will (more often than not) head for the steps to potty in the yard. I think when he has an oops moment it's because he is distracted. He can "hold it" for about 6 hours. It will only get better, so I'm not too concerned. Wolfgang and sometimes Pugsley play with the puppy and help burn off some of that energy. He is a very mouthy dog and enjoys grabbing my pants as I walk by, chewing on my feet if they dangle over the couch or a chair (he's doing it right now) and will sometimes bite my butt if I'm kneeling on the floor or something. He's learning that it hurts (a lot), but everything goes in his mouth right now... toys, paper, leaves... if it is within reach he'll chew on it. In his first week he gained 5 pounds. Most of that was to compensate for his malnourishment, but I swear he's getting longer. He also has what the vet thinks is a bug bite on his wiener. How did I notice this? I was rubbing his belly and freaked out. I made jokes about my poor puppy having herpes. But it seems to be getting better. He doesn't like sleeping in the bed, but prefers to chill in the living room. He does fine out there, but I've been waking up around 2 a.m. and take him outside. Don't know why I'm waking up, but it's probably a good thing. I adore him and think he's a nice addition to the pack.
