09:57 pm - I can't forget about Landon!
I haven't posted here in such a while, I thought I'd better update about Landon! He's getting SO big! Last time he was at the vet he weighed 27 pounds... the week before that he weighed 20 pounds!
He's pretty insane. he's at that age euivalent of the "terrible twos." He's still really nippy when he plays but he ever so slowly getting better. At least he stops biting when I say "Out!" if only for a second or two before biting again... Other than that he is doing wonderfully. Housetraining has been so easy, he hasn't had an accident in at least a month I think. He looooves to go for walks, although he is still convinced that if he tries hard enough, he can eat every single leaf in the forest.
Two weeks ago I took him to class with me. I go there a little early so I could have time to settle in..haha yeah right. I am in a vet tech program, so my class if full of animal lovers. We closed the door and I let him loose.. he was a very good boy, he ran around and said hello to everyone, then flopped onto the floor by me and slept soundly through the rest of the class. He gonna regret when the test comes along though... ;) Anyway, now that midterms are over, I'm going to bring him to class with me as much as possible.
Anyway, enough with the chitchat, on with the pics!
( Aren't you proud, I learned how to do a cut!!Collapse )

10:00 pm - Oh yeah... i have a puppy
So it's been almost two weeks now, and I haven't even posted about Landon! I've been so bust taking care of him, I've hardly even looked at my computer. Which is a good thing. I'd rather look at my puppy. :D
He's wonderful. He's a very good little puppy. So maybe he has an obsession with biting hands, anythink fabric and dangly, the floor, the walls, and carpet, my bed, Rocky's fluffly little tail...
He already knows sit and "park time" and come and (sometimes) rest. And he's only 9 weeks old! He can go up the stairs, but he can only go down 4 or 5 steps at a time. Rocky either hates him or ignores (just out of reach though) which drives Landon crazy, so he's always having hissy fits.
Oh, and he's SO FLIPPIN ADORABLE.
Today we went to Petsmart with some other puppies froom club, because we had a little table with info set up. It was awful not being able to let anyone pet him or let him run around on the floor and play with the other dogs. I felt like a meanie hogging all his cuteness for myself. He still has 4 more weeks to go before he's completed his shots and can be let down on the ground in public places... and best of all that's when everyone can PET him! I've also taken him to the Library and the bank. He's getting very heavy to be carrying around... I think it's a silly rule. :(
Right now he's rolling around under the bed making weird little gremlin noises and chewing on the bed tie-down. Hee!

10:08 pm - Tomorrow...
So.. Tomorrow is the big day. I'm VERY excited. I spent all weekend cleaning and puppy-proofing and getting everything set up and ready for Landon. I'm going to try not to spaz now, so I shall go. I know I won't be able to sleep tonight...

09:28 pm - The best day ever...
Today was a very good day.
I had a final at 8 am... which was not so great, but it was my last final, so I sure wasn't complaining. I was done taking it and home in bed by 9:00. Of course I went to bed! It was still morning... what else was there to do? The only downside of that was that I had all these nightmares that I still had more finals to take that I didn't know about. And I was late for them because I overslept from my nap! Horrible horrible dreams... but then I woke up and everything was wonderful.
And the day gets even better....
I got The Call from Vicki (at the Seeing Eye). I am officially the proud new mommy of Landon, a male golden retriever/labrador cross Seeing Eye puppy! He'll be coming to live with me on January 8.... ahhh I'm so excited! I danced around the house for a little bit when I hung up the phone. :D
