Wilson

Hi. Just giving you an update on Andy, the Golden maybe mix puppy we adopted. He had a good christmas and loved playing with all the other dogs at the grandparents house. The kids love him and he's settling in. He even likes the cat. Cat doesn't want to be playmates, but they seem to have come to an understanding.

We have renamed him Wilson after the character from House. We are working to puppy proof the house and have got him lots of toys and enrolled him in puppy training. He loves his new home and seems housebroken. He hates going out in the snow so hopefully it will melt soon. It's tough standing out in it with him.

We are working on Wilson's two classic puppy issues: Teething and crating. He chews on everything and everyone all the time and absolutely hates being in his crate. We are confident we can get him through both issues though.

We will post updates later which will hopefully be us raving about his progress and what a model citizen he is. He's a smart and sweet dog. We just need to polish him up some.
