Bad Parents

We skipped our morning walk and substituted some play time. Echo is not satisfied having one toy. He wants whatever toy Buddy has and eventually he wants both toys.



Another day of good news and bad news. The good news is that Lisa was finally able to give/get her Christmas present. Echo smells much better today - after the wet dog smell went away.



We have been placing a tennis ball in Echo's food bowl to slow down his eating. After eating he rests for fifteen minutes in his crate. Here comes the bad news. We must have left him alone too long, he was very hungry, or being a Labrador he will eat anything because after his rest all that was left of the tennis ball was the fluorescent yellow skin.

Actually Echo seems to be going through his second chewing phase. He spends hours gnawing on bones. Right now we feel like the most irresponsible puppy raisers. Cross your fingers we see the tennis ball later.
