Duke

Well it is hard to believe that we have had Duke for a whole week! The week has just flown by, which I love because that means everyday that goes by is one day closer to Joey being home! I just wish I could stop Duke from growing though so that Joey gets to experience all his puppiness!

During this past week, Duke has met our families and some friends! I was very impressed with how well he has been doing with our nieces while I am watching them. He is not too nippy towards them, not like he is towards me anyways! Don't know what that means towards me but he does amazing with them! Especially since they always want to pick him up! The best part of taking him with me to watch them is that they usually tire him out big time! He loves to chase them, plus they have a nice big yard for him to do lots of exploring! He also likes to go and hang out with our parents and visit!

He is doing really well with being in his crate in the car, no whining at all really anymore:) The crate in the apartment he doesn't mind as much but doesn't enjoy being in it for long periods of time! But we are working on it, part of me is just nervous because we do live in an apartment that doesn't allow dogs, so to really let him get used to being in a crate at home will take sometime! Really we are still trying to get used to each other and that will take sometime! I just have to remember that he is only 8 weeks old! Still a baby!
