I swear I'll stop bombarding the thread with Piper pictures and videos but I finally got one that shows how Bella and Piper play without Piper zooming all over the rooms.

AND I kept her with me from after 5:00 am breakfast until 11:00 when she FINALLY went pee on the 5th trip out. Then caught and corrected her from pooping on the floor and got her outside. HUGE party and praise while she pottied outside. I managed to get two more catches and corrections with two more successful potty trips outside. Each one is awesome for her learning. Her reward when she potties outside is playtime with big sis.

This is the the pink fuzzy coat I got for a dollar.

I got this for $2 and gutted it for the filler.

Sewed the neck closed and sewed an arc across the chest and stuffed it with the filler.

Then put two 1" thick x 16" round chair pads into a waterproof zippered pillow case and sewed it into the body and sewed the arms to the bed. She loves it! She kept leaning down over the edge and taking a few pieces of food out of her bowl then backing up and laying down to eat them in her bed.

I can unzip it from the bottom to remove the chair pads and wash it when it needs it.

I surely won't complain about a peck of perky Piper pictures.

Bella thinks she got a puppy without all of the work leading up to it!

Bella and her play so well together. They both love the stuffies but Bella isn't going crazy whipping them around. Whether she knows she'll be flinging Piper along with it, I'm not sure. I just keep telling her "gentle" and she is trying hard to control her excitement and doing well.
Piper has done excellent with her potty training and not chewing on every stinking thing in her path lessons too. The breeder must really have been working with her because I'm impressed with how well she is doing.
She was half interested in her meals and I need her to eat all her food when she's given a meal to keep her on a good predictable schedule. For her last meal today, I spooned some of the bloody juice out of Bella's bowl into Piper's and boy oh boy did that do the trick. She gobbled up every last bit of it.
I also discovered that if I swaddle her tight in a throw blanket she'll settle right down and eventually doze off. I call it the burrito of serenity. I hope tonight goes much better for her than last night did.

Hello Everyone! Breaking radio silence here after a busy week. Such a cute pup DL!

Our little gal also arrived - and she’s just a wonder pup. I’ve raised a few from this age during my life, but never had one so quiet and good with holding herself (only a couple very small accidents when she was too busy playing, and no messes in her crate at night).

Here’s little Salt

She sure is cute, DL! You will be needing strong coffee for a few weeks.
Cold and breezy here. Flakes flying but no accumulation.
Cap, I hope you are feeling better! Hugs!

Yes, thank you. Cleaning the goat house. Planting more wheat. Raining tonight.
