Re: sleeping & training begins...



Gawd what a funny story with the chickens!  Life is never dull is it when one has Goldens (or Cairn Terriers)!
 
Gina, the Casino litter is just beautiful.  My hat is off to you!  What a wonderful litter of pups!
 
Yes, puppies DO sleep a LOT.  Dollar is now approaching 11 weeks and still sleeps a lot.  We get her up at least an hour before bedtime to play with her and get that abundance of puppy energy out of her!  It works wonders!  Gina, I have no more problems with the crate - she sleeps there for naps, at night, in the truck when we go places.  May fuss a little, but turns around and gives up and goes to sleep!  Thanks for the advice and help.  Have I told you lately that you're one of my heroines?  ;-)
 
I'll try to think of some good names for Silver and Bonnie.
