Gords' Dogs: Our 60 Pound Bear cub

Bear lately has been quite naughty with his chewing. If you leave anything on the hot tub cover near the edge, he'll steal it and eat it. He's eaten:

I have nobody to blame except myself.
But I was so mad I could spit.
Dude! Learn.
my hot tub mocs (Salvageable)
my underwater headphones that were in the case, which he chewed open and ate just the headphones
chlorine floater
pool buoy
Chlorine test strips
Magazine, and newspaper in hundreds of little pieces
Canvas air conditioning cover

So we have been focussing on NOT leaving anything down that we have been trying to do better keeping things away from Jack that shouldn't be chewed.

This past week we had an issue with pooping in the house. I was gone for most of the day and the boys didn't watch after the dogs and they had free reign of the whole house unmanaged, and unchecked. Oliver left his bedroom door open and the dogs completely released their bowels in his bedroom. Fortunately, their system is healthy and the poop wasn't diarrhea so it made cleanup easy and didn't damage or smear the carpet. TMI sorry.

I let the boys have it. It seems they take advantage of the fact that I'm home most of the time, and don't really help out with the dogs. And they leave their bedroom doors open.

Bear thinks he's a lap dog,
at Austin's Pickleball tournament.

This evening, Bear weighed in at 60 pounds. While Jack is staying constant at 45 pounds. We've gone on about 4-5 walks this week and they are playing a bunch in the backyard. Only two more weeks till we get our white Wonderdog.

Some updated pics:

We've taught Bear to say his prayers.
Just kidding. This past week he learned how to jump
up on the bed. But he starts here waiting for
someone to help lift his big butt up. And when
no one comes to his aid, he does a small hop
and can get up himself.
