@tanza Oh yes. I give her 1/3 cup blue buffalo puppy kibble, 1 tbsp wet blue buffalo puppy, 1 tbsp yogurt or cottage cheese, (alternating) and if I se any sign of dandruf or dryness in her fur, I also add in a few drops of olive oil. I have chicken and vegetables every night, and I've been preparing my chicken unseasoned since I got rogue so I can use it for training on occasion, so sometimes if she's being stubborn I'll bury some tiny shreds of chicken in her food to get her to eat, or sometimes I'll do the same thing with some other high value treats. I don't feed her in a crate, but I've moved her bowl into my room so she's lessdistracted at mealtime, and she has a safe place to eat when my niece comes over. Rogue plays nice with my niece outside, but indoors, she's kind of a really big squeeky toy, so we have to watch her constantly. I also, on the rarest occasions, will give her a little tiny pinch of american, or sharp cheddar cheese. That seems to get her really excited. She doesn't get excited about cottage cheese, but american or sharp cheddar? She goes nuts. fagedabodit. And she get chews and kongs in the crate, but never meals. And she doesn't spend much time in there anymore since she's been house trained. She just sleeps in my bed. In fact, she's passed out next to me right now.
Pippin meets Lucy, the cat and other video clips.

So Pippin is fitting wondefully since his arrival Friday last week. He has not skipped a beat on making himself at home and we are loving it.
He has met the cat, Lucy, whom hates the dogs but does OK on tolerating them so long as they leave her alone…Pippin will not leave her alone..hehe.He also has a great voice, something he loudly and proudly uses many times throughout the days.
He loves Gus, the grumpy doxie of ours, Gus..."likes" Pippin ok..especially once it is bedtime...:rolleyes:
Moses and Pippin are huge "compadres" already and I can see them being fast friends once Pippin gets a little older and quicker on his feet.I have a few clips of Pippin, tearing up stuff he can get to, harrasing the cat and what nots...hope you enjoy them as much as I did recording them.

Great videos. He's settled in so well - you'd think he was born there!
-
nice vids, what kind of dog is the bigger one, looks like a basenji mix or some sort, i am also a fan of the vid with the cat
-
He is definitely a looker…and a little troublemaker in the making.
-
He's so adorable! I really like the one with Moses towering over him. He's so patient with Pippin.

Jepp..he is our Podengo wonder kid..lovely breed, very similar to basenjis in many ways, yet very different in other…him and Pippin are best of friends..
He has totally moved in and stolen all of our hearts..he is trouble though...:):):)..and isn't he pretty?
-
Great videos Petra, i love the one of him yodelling at the cat
I enjoyed seeing your other Dogs, especialy Moses, he's like a giant Basenji.
I assume your Dogs understand Swedish and English ?
Another question, i notice you have laminated floors, do you find that the Dogs can run ok without slipping ?
At the moment we have floorboards which are a mess due to doggy claws, laminate would be much easier but i am just a bit concerned. -
Shelley..the dogs do slip like crazy on the laminated floors but they are easy to care for and hardy so it is a little give and take kind of thing.
