This is Tom Hanks "The Tank" Contreras. We'll call him Hank. He came for an overnight last night. Meeting Dan went GREAT! I gave Dan absolutely no credit. We let him sniff Hank first; all ends :O) Then we put him on the ground, and Dan was so excited, but seemed to know he was a baby and had to be gentle because he kept stretching his back legs to get some energy out.
Hank is 6 weeks old. He just got his shots, so he was able to come over. He played with all sorts of new toys, including a bone, a squeeky* toy, and this tennis ball.Crystal- he likes "the funk" toy you bought Dan. Dan still won't touch it, but Hank liked chewing it :o) Thanks!
He even played with Dan! Dan let him climb on him and stand on him and even bite the side of his face :o) He chased him around the house and playfully mouthed him. It was pretty cute to watch them play.
After a schedule of eat, play, outside, Hank slept in his crate. In this picture, he actually put himself to bed in his crate :o) He liked snuggling up to his "baby", a toy we bought him and kept at his other house to smell like mom and puppies. He found it quite comforting throughout the night and only cried once to go outside (at 4:39 am!). Then he woke up for the day at 7:30. He's getting the idea of going potty outside, but he's too young to teach to ask for it; we just have to be scheduled and pay attention...so far so good. We sent him back home this afternoon and we'll get to keep him next weekend at 7 weeks. I am SO excited! And so glad to know that Dan will be good with him and didn't get jealous :o)
