THE BEST DAY OF HER LIFE!

Hello Patti, He is an awesome puppy and we are so pleased to have him! He yowled for only a few minutes and was easily comforted. He traveled perfectly. My daughter (7 yr old) came home about 1:00 to the surprise of her life! We video taped their 1st meeting and it rivaled any "I'm going to Disney World" surprise. She just kneeled and he immediately smiled and showed her great affection, as only a puppy can. She said, "Is he mine!?", "Can I keep him!?", "This is the happiest day of my life!". As a result, yesterday was one of the happiest days of our life, too! He went potty outside which was a pleasant surprise, (and inside also- but that was expected). He immediately enjoyed the comfort of his new kennel. He fell asleep in the living room floor with us about 10:00. I then put Madison to bed, picked him up and put him in his kennel where he slept all night! He barked during the night 1 time and woke me for the day about 6:15. He did not potty in his kennel and I immediately took him out where he did potty! I would say that our first day as a family was a success and very joyful....for everyone but the cat!:)) She is working on showing him who is in charge and seems to only be detered in that endeavor by his barking! He's such a good puppy! All the neighbor children and familes think he is the most darling boy ever! Thank you, Kim
