Well, it was a pretty uneventful weekend around the house. I got back on Monday from DC and Jeremiah came back late Wednesday night from DC. Hank sure missed us! We didn't walk him enough those few nights, so he woke up in the middle of the night, but Saturday and this morning when he woke up (about 7 and 8) he jumped up on the bed with us to make sure we knew he was awake. But, he is OK with us still sleeping, as long as sleeping includes scratching him and snuggling with him.
Jeremiah decided a couple of months ago to build a shelf for all of Hank's "stuff." it would hold his leashes and collars (yup, he has 5) and his poop bags, and have hooks for wet jackets. We decided to make the downstairs area the entrance and exit for him, so that if there is an accident, he tries to get downstairs to the tile. And with the wet, when we come and go with him, it's a good place to take of shoes and coats, etc. So, Jeremiah finished the shelf today and we got it all setup. Here's a few pictures to check out.
Hank gets to go to Doggie Day Camp TWO TIMES this week! We figured with the rain and getting Christmas stuff done, Hank would like to play with other dogs. And then on Saturday, the Northwest Christmas trip extravaganza begins! Hank only spends Saturday night away from us, AND he gets to meet his uncle/cousin/whatever dog, my dad's dog Rudy! It should be an adventure. At least they're both fixed...
OH yeah! I won 2 hours of free dog training and so we had our first hour of training on Saturday. She kept complimenting what a great dog Hank is. We worked on Sit, lay, WAIT (handy on walks!) and leave it. We have lots of practicing to do, but hopefully he'll be proficient by new years and ready for more!
Alright, time for a bedtime potty break in the rain!

Your husband has no skills. A shelf for your dog's stuff? That's crazy. I have a cardboard box. . .
