Getting to know Barkley

Our new addition, Barkley is fitting in great! Here are a few things we have learned in the week we've had our lil guy.

- Barkley loves to play, yes we know he is a puppy, but he welcomes any chance he gets to play, and he DOESN'T tire easily.

- Barkley loves attention, and although we are trying to divide it equally between the two, he doesn't understand why.

- Barkley is Darin's dog through and through! He hears Darin's truck coming up the driveway, the excitement begins to build and from there, Darin has a neverending Shadow all evening!

- When he is just sitting his lil teeth poke through his lips kind of like a buck tooth look, and it's simply adorable!

- When he runs he lil ears bounce up and down with his body, and again simply adorable!

- He loves to go on walks, do believe this is his favorite part of the day!

- He loves to wake up about 2am and bark, at what you may ask, well at himself in the mirror on the dresser that he can see when sitting at the foot of the bed.

- For the most part Barkley is potty trained but doesn't love to use the pet door to go outside, we are working at this, and lucky for us, Scotty loves the pet door so he helps with this issue.

- Barkley LOVES squeeky toys, and is not into destroying the squeeker, he does however know how to squeek them.

We are all adjusting well, it's taking a Scotty a bit longer, but he is coming around and enjoying the company. Enjoy a few pics!



Notice the teeth!



Scotty & Barkley sleep together as well!

We are pretty sure, he has forgotten how small he really is, as he can't even begin to open his mouth big enough to get it around this bone, but he continues to try day in and day out, due to, yep, Scotty does it!
