Snow day

On Saturday, Jesús decided to go outside and shovel the snow. I wasn't there, but he took these pictures since Major was having so much fun in the snow. Enjoy!

The Dog Whisperer

I was channel surfing and stumbled upon the shot on National Geographic called the Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan (http://channel.nationalgeographic.com/series/dog-whisperer). Wow! This guy is amazing! And you can really learn alot from him by just watching the show. Anyways, if you ever get a chance to watch it, I recommend it. In a tribute to the show...here is a picture of our dog Major! Ha!



These water bowls are for the bigger dogs at the office (Jesús takes him to work) but he stretches himself out so he can get water too :-)

Major defends Jesús :-)

Here's a video of Major. He found a toy bowling ball and didn't know what it was...so he started barking at it.



He's doing better and better everyday. He's starting to warn us now if he needs to go outside...so that is a huge bonus! Well, I hope you enjoy the video!

Barking and Stairs

Major has learned a couple new things this past week...climbing stairs and barking. He knows how to get up the stairs...but is scared to come down. Here is a video Jesús took of him barking because he can't come down the stairs...

Major is so smart!

Major seems to be learning more and more every day. He is still biting and trying to figure out this big world via his mouth...but I understand he's a puppy so I'm tolerating it. From everything I've read, it's ok if he "feels you out" with his teeth...but when it gets to the point of hurting you are supposed to yelp really loud (ha ha) and then ignore him for a few minutes. So...we've been trying this and it seems to be working! This week he’s been good and he really knows his schedule. It’s like clockwork. Also, he is finally recognizing his name pretty well.



The boys were with us last weekend. They enjoyed their time with Major, but they were a little apprehensive playing with him since he is biting so much. Luckily, Major had his shots on Friday (Jan 30th) so he wasn't so rambunctious during the weekend.

Major

We picked up Major last Sunday. He's so adorable and we have already fell in love with him! He's been doing really well. Hardly any whining at all...only when he's in his crate and doesn't want to be. He is so playful and full of energy. Of course, after play time and after eating he is a little cuddler and just wants to be held and loved. He is able to go to work with Jesús and has been doing very well with that. He goes to the bathroom outside and has only had a few accidents while at work. At home is another story...but we are working on it! I have to give him praise though...last night he woke up twice and I took him outside. The first time (around midnight) he did both "1" and "2". Then he didn't get up again until about 5:15am and I took him outside again and he did number "1". So he's getting there! When we go outside he loves eating the snow! He doesn't like it so much on his feet, but it sure does taste good to him! ha! Here are some pictures:
