LIFE WITH BUDDY--DAY 3

Yesterday (Sunday), Buddy got to hang out at the shop with Dale for several hours while Dale was tilling the garden. Then they came back and he and Jameson helped Dale and me as we worked in the yard on a gorgeous 70 degree afternoon.  Buddy is in constant motion!  He developed an instant bond with Dale on Saturday and doesn't want Dale to be out of his sight when he is home, although he seems fine when Dale is away from the house.

 

Last night was much better than the first.  Buddy settled down in his crate after a short spell of fretting, and was quiet all night.

 

Today we woke up to a blizzard!  Dale is off to work, so I have been working with Buddy on some housetraining.  Right now that consists of walking him around the house on a leash to help him learn his boundaries in the house, and not to hike his leg anywhere.  He seems a little perturbed that there is a human attached to him everywhere he goes!  :-)

 

Oh, while at the shop yesterday, Dale got out a shotgun and Buddy came to stay right by him.  Dale said, "Bird," and Buddy went on point.  So, it seems possible that he has hunted!
