Dukedate

It's time for another Dukedate:)

Duke is getting so big...this morning him and Bandit were sitting in similar positions and I noticed they are the same height! Holy moly! He is only 15 weeks old!

{Side story, we were taking him to the vet this weekend and out walks this 215 pound dog! Yay, you heard me right, 215lbs!...at that point I thought Duke was a lap dog!}

Duke has gone 4 days without an accident {or so I hope...otherwise I have a surprise I haven't found yet}

cheese, mom!

He is learning his name, what go outside means, and NO!

Duke is Zachary's best buddy, they follow each other around everywhere!

Dukedates are going to start being monthly! keep an eye out for one in July!

Meet our dog Duke

cute right?!?!

Well, let me tell you about this business, we said we would N.E.V.E.R. get a PUPPY for 2 reasons: 1) potty training 2) chewing and, guess what Duke is 2 months old and NOT potty trained and is trying to CHEW on EVERYTHING!!!

We casually walked into a pet store to just LOOK at the puppies on our date and an hour and a half later we walk out with our adorable pure breed chocolate lab. Duke is super cute, cuddly and huge! 2 and half months and already eating 2 cups of food a day! LORD HELP US!!!

The hubs has 'always' dreamed of a chocolate lab and we seem to never find the right one; when he saw Duke his heart was sold and soooo was our pocket book! The reasonable side of me was like 'girl, you do NOT need another dog let alone a puppy, YOU'LL be the one potty training, getting up at night, and feeding him' the husband pleasing side of me was like 'oh gosh, look how cute the hubs is with him, he is a GREAT Father's day present, it's what he's always wanted go ahead, say yes' obviously the hubs pleasing side one!

 

So, join me as I train my toddler and the puppy to use the appropriate area to potty, teach then not to chew/bite things, and to listen!
