Our first weekend with Maybel

Whew, it's been a long weekend. Here's the skinny:
We got her home about 6:30 on Friday. She slept almost the whole way home, and as soon as we got here, she made toilet out front in the grass. Already so smart. We brought her in, and she just laid around. She didn't eat anything, but she drinks water every 15 minutes or so. More on that later.

We got a surprising amount of sleep Friday night. She got sick once in her crate, so we took her out and went outside. After that, she stayed in the crate until morning. She wolfed down breakfast and we just payed with her all day until her check-up with Dr. Malone. Everything was fine, all the technicians loved her and thought she was a Cottonelle puppy.

We came back, and hung out in the living room for the rest of the night. That's pretty much all we've all weekend.

She's been doing pretty good in the crate. She still whines for a little bit, but eventually calms down and goes to sleep.

So far, the funniest thing are:
- Her bark sounds like a raspy little scream.
- She drinks water ALL the time. She'll wake up from a dead sleep and go get a few sips, and come back and lay down.
- She liked to watch the Dog Whisperer, she perks up with the barking dogs.

So, she's great! This was kind of a ramble, but i'm a little tired. We've been up early and a few times during the nights. I'm adding pics from Moriah's camera to the Picasa page.


We're sending this one into LL Bean.
