First Bath
Here we are at our first bath. Puppy has been quite a chore; it IS JUST LIKE HAVING A NEW CHILD. For the most part it has been a lot of fun though.
A name change could be a possibility at this point, as Kaluha is just not fitting. So, it is not official, but "Java" is now being used and she tends to respond well to it.
Crate training is up on the agenda for the next few weeks. This is going to leave me with some sleepless nights but we have talked to so many HAPPY crate trained dog owners it seems to be something beneficial to your pet.
So.. more Puppy info to come....

New Family Member
Introducing the newest member of our family "Kaluha".
She is a Chocolate Lab that we have acquired through some friends of ours that decided to breed their dog. The choice came mainly because "Echo" the mother is such a well behaved dog.
So far the kids are doing most of the work, although Daddy had to stay up the first night coddling the puppy.
I always promised Tyler a dog, so i figured it was time. The only thing is it has put another family member's nose out of joint as she (Marlee), is not getting as much attention.
I forgot myself how much fun puppies are. :P
