Welcome! Bella is SO cute!!! My puppy is 8 weeks old, so if you need any advice let me know!

I'm so excited for you!! Bella is just the cutest. It's stressful the first couple weeks, but it'll get better. Puppies are always a big adjustment. I always look forward to coming home to her every night, I hope Bella brings you as much happiness as Yams has brought to us! Let me know how it goes...

How is it going with Bella? She looks almost exactly the same as my pup!

oh yes, our pup is a little wild too! There are times where she tests my patience! But most of the time she is great. She sleeps through the night and is trying hard to be housebroken. She's catching on to things fast, though. Let me know how the puppy class goes! I bet your Bella is getting so big- we had to buy a different kennel for Yams, she seems to have grown so much since we brought her home!

No kidding, a drop of honey? I will have to try that out tonight, that is genius that you thought of that! I just noticed you are a graphic designer- so am I!

I work for McCullough Creative in Iowa (United States). I do mostly print design. I also teach as an adjunct professor at a college here, just one class, once every other semester. What kind of design do you do?

Thank you, and Bella herself is absolutely precious herself. I love fuzzy red/white female pems. Especially when they have a lot of white in the front.

Hey, I love little Bella...that is one of my favorite puppy names! I am not sure if you got the night time potty issues under control yet or not but if you get her a kennel, she will get used to it...they claim it like their bed and (usually will not go to the bathroom in it). Daisy did at first but when we got her wormed and the potty issue was solved. When you have her out take her outside to go to the bathroom and use words that she will recognize with going to the potty outside like pee pee poo poo, hurry hurry, be quick because they sometimes lose track of why they are outside for...play or other. I hope this helps! The potty thing is not the funnest for sure!

Oh, also you can buy crates that are big and can be sectioned off while they a little and let them go into them and save a little money at the same time!

I love Bella's new pics! She looks just like a little bear cub!! I just posted new pics of Yams so you'll have to check them out. We're still having issues with housebreaking/nipping too, so hang in there! In other news, we found out we're pregnant- 3 days after we got Yams! so our house will be chaotic with a new baby and a dog. Hope Yams reacts well to this!!
