Bath Time!!

Chelsea got her first bath the other day at her new home! She enjoyed it very much and loved being wet. Afterwards she dried off and was smelling fresh again!

An Exciting Weekend!

Chelsea had a very exciting weekend! My great-grandparents and my grandparents came in from Florida to spend a few days with us. My grandparents have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel also named Winnie, so it was exciting for Chelsea to actually have a peppy dog in the house. Winnie was kind of scared of Chelsea and her fast movement, but she soon got used to it. My great-grandparents really enjoyed her also! On Sunday, February 8 my aunt, uncle, and cousin came in from Charlotte for the day. It was very exciting seeing them. They also brought their dog Toby a black Cocker Spaniel. Toby really liked Chelsea, but Chelsea didn't like his fast movement very much. Of course, Chelsea got all of her shots so she was allowed to interact with all of these dogs. Chelsea also had a play-date with Holly's friend Casey's cavachon Maggie. Maggie didn't pay attention to Chelsea, but it was cute to see them playing together! I'm sure when Chelsea gets a little older they will be best friends!

9 weeks old

Chelsea is now a little over 9 weeks old. She has met many people including my friends, Holly's friends, Matthew's friends, and my parents friends. We have not yet introduced her to any dogs because she hasn't had all of her shots yet, but if anyone wants to come over to my house and see her feel free anytime. When she gets her shots we're allowed to have dogs over also. We have had her for a week now and love her. Sometimes she can be a pain but she's a puppy what are you going to do! We brought Chelsea to Jefferson Elementary to see Mrs. Davis but I think half the staff stopped and looked at her! We didn't mind though! She is very excited to watch the Super Bowl with us! I hope because that's what I'm doing on Sunday! Go Cardinals!!

To The Vet

Yesterday, Chelsea went to the vet! She didn't get any shots, it was just a little check up visit. We took her to Reynolda Veterinary Hospital and her vet was Dr. Eric Taylor. The results were all excellent! Chelsea is a very healthy pup. She weighs 4.5 pounds now! Chelsea didn't get scared or anything, so that is a good thing!!

Snow and Other Stuff

SNOW!!!!!! I was so glad that we were out of school. Chelsea absolutely LOVED the snow. She tried on her winter jacket but didn't like it so much. She kept trying to pull it off, but she looked really cute in it! Everytime we took her out to "do her business" she fell in the snow and rolled around in it and was wet when we brought her back in the house. Sometimes she even tried to eat the snow. I know, I don't blame her for liking it! Today was Chelsea's first day without any of the kids in the house. From what I hear, she was a good dog but puppies will be puppies and you know what that means. Chelsea is still getting used to having another dog in the house. Sometimes she grabs on to my other OLD dog Candy's tail fur and Candy pulls her around the hard wood where Chelsea slides on her stomach behind Candy. I don't even think that Candy really knows what Chelsea is doing. Haha! Today I heard Chelsea bark for the first time! I don't know if that is a good thing or a bad thing. She was barking at my bunny Snickers in his cage. She tends to hang around the rabbit a lot when we let her have run of the house. Chelsea has started puppy chewing "biting" more since she got here. She has gotten at my bookbag, shoes, jackets, socks, dirty clothes, and much more. Basically all the stuff that I "forget" to put away. Some friends are over right now and Chelsea seems to be doing excellent with them! Well, thats all for now...bye!

Day #2

Day 2 was a relaxing, laid back day for Chelsea. She started to get a little more used to her surroundings. Unfortunately, she started chewing more too. She loves shoelaces, mulch, branches, and leaves. Who knew going outside and playing in the bushes could be so exciting?! Chelsea slept through the night again but whimpered in the morning. She doesn't like to be cooped up. Chelsea wants to explore and be adventurous and not be in her crate all the time. She fell asleep on me many times, and I love petting her soft puppy fur. I don't want to go to school and be away from her, but, on the plus side, now I'm never bored at home!! I wonder how Chelsea will do with Mom when us kids are at school!
