Raising a puppy
This Saturday was a very busy Saturday for me. My schedule was a little different compared to what I do on most Saturdays besides work in the afternoon. Every employee at the restraint I work at was called in to go and help clean and decorate the restaurant at 9a.m. This felt extremely unusual since at 9a.m. I'm usually having breakfast or in bed still. Anyways I went to help out and was stressed out because I thought I was only going to be in there for about an hour to an hour and a half and I ended up being there for five hours. I was really exhausted and both mad and hungry. As soon as I clocked off I felt so relieved and was in a hurry to get home and eat. On the way there and
all I could think of was what I was gonna make to eat. I was still a bit mad and then walked in and right in front of me there was a cute two month old brindle puppy. My dad went out that morning and got me a puppy. Seeing the dog changed my whole mood and I was excited and happy I started petting it and playing with him. I took him for a walk which was a bit hard because he doesn't know how to walk yet on a leash and wants to bite the leash every other step he takes. After I walked him I brought him inside and was watching him to make sure he didn't go somewhere and pee or poop. I went outside to turn on the sprinklers and when I came back inside I caught him peeing on the ground. I had to clean it and spray bleach so it would take the scent away. I have to take him outside every 15-30 minutes so he gets used to peeing and pooping outside that way he's potty trained. I also have to make his food for him everyday and serve him can food that goes into regular dog food. This puppy has turned into a responsibility for me I feel as if the puppy is a baby. I still need to teach him how to sit and not to get on any of our furniture but I think I will do that in a couple of months since he is still a baby and cant hop onto any of the furniture in the house.

That's pretty cool that you got a dog. What is his name?
ReplyDeleteTaking care of a dog is a huge commitment, especially when it's a puppy! He will definitely be messing with your schedule at times but it's so worth it. How cute, congratulations!
