This week we've been working on house training. Willie's last foster house said he hadn't had an accident in the house, but that's not the case at our house. We started over from scratch and Willie is doing really well now. So good that the gates are all down and Willie is free to wander the house.
Now that the gate is open Willie is making sure it's not going to get closed again! Even if that means sleeping on it. This really can't be very comfortable.
Willie still goes into the dog room when Mom goes to work, but maybe soon he can be in a carpeted area of the house. Yesterday Mom had to go out for a short time so she left us together upstairs with some paper on the floor if Willie needed to pee. When Mom came home Willie had peed; but on the mat by the door, not on the paper. Mom said she couldn't really be mad at him because going to the door is what Willie is supposed to do when he needs to go to the bathroom. Mom says next time she'll just put paper by the door. I don't know why she didn't think of that in the first place.
Willie is getting pretty big too. Tomorrow he goes to the Vet so we'll see how much weight he's gained. He isn't skinny anymore and best of all he's got all of his hair back!
Hopefully the Vet finds that he's mite free again. If so, then he'll be officially clear of mange. Willie will go off his medication and then can be vaccinated and neutered in a few weeks. After that he can go up for adoption. With such a cute face he's sure to find his forever home in no time!
