OMG how CUTE! Don't know how I missed it. Wait, I do… been super busy and hitting recent posts and missed. However, Freddy Fender died yesterday... isn't it a nice coincidence you have your own Fender?

He is one cute pup! Congrats!

I am delighted your Fender is working out.
Mary Kay is one of the nicest people I gave the pleasure to know.
We are so lucky in the PNW that we have quality breeders who give us a wonderful dogs.
We will do a Kitsap play day one of these days…just trying to find a safe fenced area.

okay so i have had him at home for a little while now. it is going well. yesterday and the day before i thought i might die….he peed on the couch, loveseat, my bed and my son's bed! today has been accident free (and it is now bedtime ) he is sleeping in his crate, he whines a lot. the first night i only got 3 hours of sleep. it is getting better. he has learned to sit and is making huge leash progress he found a dead rabbit today..that was so gross. he loves all people, strangers and kids (even large groups) so i am feeling blessed. please keep your fingers crossed for us

You can help him learn to go outside by taking him out every 2-3 hrs and then giving him a treat piece of cheese, hot dog when he goes along with lots of verbal "good boys".
Also, when he is in the house, have him leashed to you.
That way, you will notice when his nose goes down and he starts to show interest in corners of the room.
That really does work.
Good luck.
Oh, do post some photos so we can enjoy them.
Hugs for your new boy!

the innocent ones
