25 Days

25 days ago we got Buddy.  So far we like him.  It was touch and go at first.  He had some issues doing his doggy business outside but for the past 5 days I think he finally understands.  He barks less. He likes to sit on your lap.  He can fit out the front gate.  He doesn't come back when you say come back either.  Even when you say No and stomp your foot, he still ignores you but he is young and he would rather explore I guess.

He bit Pepper on the hand.  Pepper was probably doing something to him she shouldn't have been doing.  I heard a yelp and then I heard a cry.  It wasn't a bad bite, just bad enough to hopefully teach her a lesson.  He is a little dog and will not get any bigger.  All 9.2 pounds of him is enough for us.

He does not shed.  No really.  I gave him a bath in the kitchen sink because I read online that you are suppose to give this breed a weekly or bi-weekly bath.  When I finished there was no hair in the sink and no hair in the towel I used to dry him off.  That is very strange.  He has hair, he does not have fur.  He will not make your allergies worse, not that anyone in our house has dog allergies anyway.  He is soft.  His hair is soft.

He loves rawhide.  I want to buy him a toothbrush and start brushing his teeth.  I have been buying him dental bones to help with doggie/puppy breath.  He is sort of a puppy still, 8 months old.  He was tired and I finally got a few pictures of him.  Until a dog barked outside, that perked him up for a second.  Now he is back asleep but I already uploaded and edited the photos.  I should probably brush him.  Havanese are cool dogs!
