I don't want to say this too loud 'cuz I might jinx it. But, my two babies have been uncrated at home for up to five hours with NO damages! I have been working with them for two weeks leaving them for varying amounts of time. They've done so well. I'm both shocked and extremely proud of them! I was so afraid when I left them the first day that I raced straight home from work fully expecting a disaster. But they'd been perfect little angels! I was so happy!! So I'm bragging on them....but quietly...just in case.... |

Lol. Congrats! I haven't talked about Clyde being on his own for the same reason-- didn't want to jinx it! |
Wise decison, Jill!
Looks like I'm getting another boy to foster this weekend. A 10 year old gentleman. Hopefully he'll set a good example! |
Lol! I think I told you though in chat before so as long as we keep it between us maybe they won't hear us and prove us wrong *wink wink*
How fun. I think the older ones really do set an example. If anything were ever to happen to Lucy, I feel like Clyde would just go buck wild. She keeps him in check! |
When I leave the house now, Bunkie is confined to the main floor. (It's laminate and there isn't much she really can destroy). Saturday I ran out for 45 minutes and let her have the run of the house. Well I came home and everything looked okay till I went upstairs to my ensuite. Bunker stayed downstairs (I should have known). The bathroom garbage was dumped, kleenex chewed, qtips chewed, toilet paper unraveled . She knew she had been bad and she tries to hide under the kitchen table (she's to fat to fit in between the chairs). She got hauled upstairs to the bathroom and called bad, she then figures that it was bath time and she jumped in the tub and wouldn't get out. SIlly sheepie |
That is something to brag about tammy, well done to your two sheepie kids being good while moms out. |
YAAAAAAAAAZOOOOOOOOOOTIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
They're such good kids!
That deserves a special treat from Santa!!!!!!!!!! |
[size=7]Bravo!!size]
Don't wanna jinx it, ya know! |
Yeah !!!!
good puppies! |
Bravo!
There - that's better. |
Thanks everyone! Today is the first day they'll be out the whole day while I'm at work. Keeping my fingers & toes crossed that all goes well. |
Hide your shoes! |
CLEAR THE COUNTERS!!! |
Batten down the hatches!!!
Oh wait.....too nautical! |
LOL...y'all are cracking me up!!
I cheated. I went home at lunch to check on them. But, the good news is they were doing great! So far... |
WEB CAM!!!!!!! Doug keeps saying he's going to hook up the web cam so we can "check up" on the boys during the day!!!! |
It is a fabulous idea, Ginny. I've got a friend working on a project like that. He's setting it up so you can use multiple cameras and they scan the room so you can find them in the house. Can't wait til he gets it ready. I'm also having an issue getting high speed internet to the house. But, that's another story. |
Doug is actually serious about it, he's got the web cam all hooked up and the site ready. The main problem is that the computer is in a room that the dogs aren't in suring the day. His latest idea was to drill ahole in the wall to run the cable through...... I didn't thnk that sounded like such a great idea!!!!! |
LOL... that is a good idea, except I can't do stuff like that at work. I suppose I could check it with my cell phone.... |
They did it! All day with no problems!
Ginny - tell Doug to use wireless web cams. Put one in two or three rooms where the dogs are during the day. Yes, Stacey, you probably could use your cell phone to check on them. That would be cool! |
Honeymoon's over.
I knew it was a risk bragging on them. I know longer have a remote control for my DVD player and I'm minus a beautiful little decorative basket that I've had for years. Oh well...they're still "almost" perfect puppies. We'll keep working on it. |
Which one had basket in their beard? |
That one was a mystery. Based on where I first saw it, I thought it was Gen. But, then I found the other half of it in Beau's favorite spot, so I guess it was a dual conspiracy. |
I wonder why they like remotes so much? |
I don't know. I was surprised because they've never even shown any "remote" (that one was for Ron! ) interest in them. |
But if you're at work, and you see them doing something crazy on the web cam, don't you think it would be worse than not seeing it at all? You won't make it home in time to stop it or discipline in time. I just picture myself watching it freaking out, like "Stop! Stop!" like they could hear me! Or were you thinking more for preventative measures so you can see the kind of stuff they do get in and proactively stop it for the next time? |
HAHA. The people in your office would think you were nuts yelling at your computer. |
Anything stopping you from installing a home answering system that allows you to screen calls.... so you could yell STOP THAT RIGHT NOW as your message, and they'd hear that.....
There might be programs that go with webcams that would be two-way, so you could yell at them through the computer. You might have to set up a baby monitor near the computer and the listeners around the house so you could yell at them through the computer and have it broadcast around the house.... Just thinking out loud. |
Well just goes to show you...no one is perfect...even a sheepie.
Marianne and the boys |
Aww they were doing so good, never mind there is always a bit of mischief in all of us sheepies included |
aww, they tried. Temptation is too great of a thing sometimes. |
