break through


since sunday, otis has seemed to settle in!! he has relaxed and isn't jumping or being unruly anymore. he is sleeping through the night as well!! and he hasn't had an accident in a while! he was basically housebroken in about a week. even ed has noticed the difference and has seemed to be a little less stressed.

i think the biggest thing now is working with otis on learning his commands - he has sit down pat and we are moving on to down. i think he will be a quick study as he has already learned leave it, down, off and no.

i am not going to be completely excited about otis and his behavior yet. but i can say that he is becoming a very nice dog. :-) he was already extremely sweet and smart. now that he is learning his manners, he is becoming much more of a joy to be around.
