Wilson Update


Wilson is now 14 1/2 weeks old. He has been with us for approx. 2 1/2 weeks and has gained about 15 lbs already. He has already outgrown one of his collars and soon will outgrow a second.


He isn't house trained and we're cleaning messes often. Luckily we have a steam cleaner to help with the carpets. If we take him out religiously every hour, he's ok. He makes it through the night in his crate with out any accidents. (So we know he can hold it!)


A neighbor of ours suggested, as a way to help him at night to keep barking down, to leave some worn clothes near his crate. Amazingly, it works! So we don't have sleepless nights but we are still waking up early at 6:30-7AM to take him out once his bladder is full. :-)
