The Chew Monster

Bear's big front teeth are coming in, and because of that, he is wanting to chew a lot more. So we have to be more careful monitoring what he's doing.  He's is getting so big.  He's significantly bigger than Jack now. And it's fun to see them grow closer to each other.  They get a long so good.

These dogs are quite spoiled.  We often will cook up something that includes a bone, and then they get a treat to chew on for a while.  


Cathi a few weeks ago has been browsing on KSL Classifieds for dogs.  She volunteers for Meals on Wheels, and apparently one home that she visits, there is an all-white Great Pyrenees dog.  She sure loves her big dogs!

She found a couple puppies that were up for sale.  The breeder was in Boise and had two "Pyradoodles".  Pyranees/Poodle mix.  This way they supposedly won't shed.  So far Bear has proven that his poodle side of him is doing well preventing sheding.  The only hair we see so far is Jack's.


Anyway, when we in the hot tub I was about to go swim, and had the endless cover off.  I challenged her to get in fully and if she did we could get one of those puppies.  I already looked up that we are allowed to have up to three animals in our home so this would max us out.  I really didn't think she would do it.  I can hardly ever get her to go in the hot tub due to the short trip from the back door into the tent where she has to endure a moment of cold air.  

But she really surprised me, and did it.  After a ton of coaxing and screaming.  Here is the quite entertaining process:


So after this, I went ahead and put down a deposit on this little guy.  He was born on Jan 31st, 2021 and will be able to come home on March 27th.  Here he is only a few days old.  





Adorable!

Bear, the big brother

 It's finally happened. Bear is now bigger than Jack.  Jack is still hovering right around 47 pounds.  Well Bear tipped the scale at just over 52 pounds this week.

Jack lost his last baby tooth. The tooth
fairy brought a dog treat!

Kitty loves Jack, and he loves her.  


Speaking of kitty, this facebook flashback reminder popped up.  This happened 11 years ago.  Wow!  She is fairly old, but doesn't really act it.
