Look at those sad eyes! "You mean I have to wear this batman cape?" Potty training a 7 week old puppy when it is 17 degrees Fahrenheit is a fool's errand. Still, it is going well and the little coat, which I purchased sometime ago for our Japanese Chin for $3 on sale (score!) fits her perfectly. It is a good lesson, for she'll soon be wearing a service dog vest. At first, however, she would not move and just sat there protesting.
This week has also been the introduction of the collar and leash. The collar just itches so much I bet you are itching just reading this. We are using a puppy leader leash recommended by the breeder and she is finally, after a week, walking along with it nicely.
So, first week here and I torture her with people clothes, cold weather, a collar all the time, and a leash. And, she still loves us!
Thankfully they are very forgiving for all the indignities we heap upon them, lol.
