Well, this boy is settling in nicely. So nicely, in fact, that I’m getting worried about our upcoming Japan trip. He’ll be staying with our vet tech for two weeks, but he is so attached to Akemi that I have to wonder how he’ll do. He’s a reluctant walker without her around and, when Akemi does her morning stretches, he sits on my lap and cries for her until she’s done. I don’t know. Hopefully he readjusts quickly and doesn’t think we’ve abandoned him (Something that is always in the back of my mind whenever I have to leave town).
To deal with Sharky’s separation anxiety, we’ve started to apply a lot of your great advice including his awesome new mansion which he seems to love.
The other day, he tried his first puppuccino…
Although mom wasn’t pleased with the consistency of his poop the next day.
He also sampled broccoli for the first – and possibly last time…
He much preferred fishies…
Sharky has proven himself surprisingly smart for a pug. He’s picked up “Sit” and “foosay!” (sic?), the Japanese equivalent of “crouch” or “down”…
Akemi is thrilled and is teaching him “Crawl” next. I’d love to teach him “Make dad a BLT!” but Akemi feels it’s too advanced at this point. We’ll see.
