She's still a lot of work, but we've settled into a routine and I don't feel so stressed all the time anymore. She hasn't had an accident in the house in a really long time. And she lets me sleep through the night! She starts her loud dinosaur yawns before 7am, but will usually quiet down a little more after that. She's getting much better at walking, and is a great little hiking buddy. And she's been an excellent dog out in public so far! That's what I wanted: a dog to take on walks and hikes that would also hang with me at wineries or on the Downtown Mall. So far so good!
We've been working on obedience training at home from the get-go, but are also starting a puppy obedience class in a couple of weeks. And she attends doggy daycare once a week for fun socializing (and to give me a little break).
Now for pictures!
