Day 10 with J.J. ...

... was great. He had no accidents the entire day! He is sleeping like clockwork now, getting up at 1 and 4 to go outside. He is consistently following the commands "sit", "lay", "Up", "No". The cutest thing is to see him go over to the door and hit the bell when we ask him if he wants to go outside.
We had a good but very busy weekend. Ricky had several performances at State Music contest which we were happy to see. He did a great job. We took turns with J.J. outside and, I kid you not, we had 43 people come up and ask to pet him in one hour! And that doesn't even include the people who cooed when they walked by. This dog is a chick magnet and he knows it! But I think it wore him out, as you can see below.
Ricky, Jonathan, cousin Lucas, J.J. and myself.

We are really having a great time with him, enjoying these fleeting puppy days while we have them. He is already growing up so fast. Jonathan is so patient and good at training him. He doesn't walk ahead of us on the leash, sits quietly waiting for his food, and resists the temptation to eat Zoie's food. What a doll.
