"Bentley" (Patton) from Buffalo, New York~


 First of all...we have decided on a name. Bentley. We are all happy with the choice.


Bentley liked his crate during the day for naps. He decided he did not like it last night for bed. He sort of had a little cry howl thing going on. My husband caved around 3am. We spent alot of time outside on Sunday. He only had an accident this am when I went out the front door to take out the trash. What kind of container did you feed the pups out of. I tried a small glass bowl and then a small plastic and he was not crazy about it. Maybe he was used to a large bowl??

Talk Soon

Note to our other puppy families~
    The puppies were fed out of a very large stainless steel "flying saucer" type dish.  Try getting a smaller stainless steel dish to feed the puppies...the type that won't tip over.  The puppies are used to getting their water from a 2 quart stainless steel pail which is clamped to their crate.

I pulled out Harleys food and water bowls (non tip and not slidable on floor) and they worked!! They are pretty deep but Bentley is doing better with them. He does have a bad habit already....he puts his front paws in the water bowl and swishes the water out....hopefully it wont happen with the deeper bowls, although he did put his paws in when he wanted some food in the other bowl....He seems to like the linoleum on the kitchen floor..probably a bit cooler. He has to touch my feet when he lays down...I love it!!
