Never try to "just look" at a puppy, because he'll end up coming home with you.
Night one: Bought puppy at 11pm and took him home. At first it was a breeze. Until he woke up at 3. Then it got rough...puppy didn't want to let us sleep at all. Slept on the floor off and on all night to try and calm him down.
Day one: Not too shabby (other than us being really tired). We finally decided on a name during church. Met all the grandparents and the other dogs. Only a few little accidents.
Night two: I slept on the floor next to him all night. Woke up to go out at 1, 3, 5, and at 6:30am he was up and ready to play.
Day two: Spent the morning with Dee, had two accidents :(. But later we went to Tanner Park with Nike and Melissa. It was so fun but a little too far for Nix and he had to be carried a lot of the way. He loved the water though and was a very sleepy puppy after. Dee bought him lots of fun things from the pet store. Spoiled puppy.
We had a wedding to go to at 7, we decided to put him in a bigger crate so he would be more comfortable. Not a good idea. He had an accident in the crate. That's what we get for leaving him i guess. Nix met some of our friends and cuddled up with me for a quiet night.
Night three: We went to bed late (2am) so we took him out before bed and he slept until 6:30!! It was so awesome! Then I thought I'd test my luck and put him back to bed and he slept again until 7:45am. It was so nice to actually sleep in my bed again.
Day three: Nix hung out with Dee all morning and is with me all day. Had one accident when I first got home but has been doing great. Been kind of a lazy puppy sort of day.
