Oreo

That is the name Ivy gave to Eric's b&w pup. The Tan pup's name is Juice (Eric came up with that). Nathan says the pups names sound like we were hungry and thirsty at the time of naming them. So far the puppies are pretty good and very very sweet. They are getting slightly better at using the pee matts at all times (the boy more so than the girl) I have spoiled them by taking them out every hour to do their business which Nathan informed me was really bad since they will pee tiny amounts on the carpet if they aren't taken out in about an hour. Luckily a friend had a dog crate (that I had to completely hose down and disinfect literally) but hey no complaints since it's perfect to crate train the youngin's. So far they love it since they associate it with their bed. I put them in last night a little after 11pm and didn't get them out till after 6am this morning. Boy were they ready to go do their business. So much that one started to go on the carpet when it walked out the crate. I picked them up and took them outside immediately luckily (so now they are being introduced into the holding for extended times. Trying to do so for about 2.5 hours without crate last night did not work however. They like to sit on the couch with us and up until last night we had no issues with them using the bathroom on it. Well something told me umm it's about time to take pups out and too late one put a nice puddle on the middle cushion. I still love them though!
