Hi Tim, Barb, Lauren, and Joe,
Bazy is doing really well…he’s an amazingly good 4 month old. He’s learnt the basic commands, sit, down, see, and to some extent, stay! He even has moments of calm when he just wants to snuggle and then falls asleep on the kitchen mat. He has tons of energy, of course, but we challenge him plenty. He loves Starbucks and the local pet stores, where he gets tons of praise. We started him on a leader leash, a few days ago- and he’s getting it already. He is amazingly smart!
We were able to stop him from nipping with this neat thing suggested by our neighbor’s daughter (she trains dogs and horses). She told us to rub our hands with unsalted butter all it took was just that one time and it’s worked like a charm! The other morning, a little boy came over to pet him at Starbucks and before we could say anything, he’d touched Bazy’s nose. But it was all good – Bazy just licked him gently!
We bathed him yesterday for the first time since he came home a month ago. And this was only because he had rolled around in some wet mud.
Regards,
Vrinda
