This was Widdles first bath and Lilly got dragged in for one as well. This is a hilarious video of the two dogs.

After two weeks of being home Widdle is fitting right in. Dobby is such a good dog with the little ones. Plays with both Lilly and Widdle very gently. Widdle is picking up fetch really well and knows the come command. He loves his daily walks around the block and finds time to nap in his kennel with out us having to put him there. Still a few mistakes on the floor but he is getting better and has learned how to us the doggie door to go out back and play with Dobby. Lilly and I have been out of town working and helping Ryan with a remodel project at his home. Ryan and Sarah are spoiling her with treats when ever they can.

Erin and I have found that it is important to make sure when you have a new puppy that you get them on a schedule right away. Widdle loves to hang out with his big brother Dobby but every now and then he does need to take a brake and have a nap.

One thing I have found really hard over the years is finding a schedule that outlines exactly what I need to do and when it needs to be done so the puppy is successful at Potty Training and other training skills like fetch, sit, stay, and come.

Here is a program that I recently found right after we got Widdle our 10 week old Yorkshire Terrier. We have signed up for their informative free emails as well as picked up their free starter kit. We used their Sample Puppy Schedule and it seems to be working out really well. Here is the schedule we have layed out for Widdle.
