Cup o' Joe

We adopted Joe on Thanksgiving weekend, and he is now 4 months old. We are so in love with this little guy! He takes turns falling asleep on the kids' beds each night before we put him in his crate. He loves to dig, and we've given him a special digging area where we bury tennis balls, treats, and pieces of wood. He still needs more socializing with other dogs, but he's getting a little better each time. Joe had his first trip to the snow over Christmas, and did so well in the car - he spent more time on our laps than in his crate, but was so content. We have finally limited the potty accidents in the house by hanging a bell on the back door. He caught on so quickly! (The only drawback is that he now also rings the bell when he wants to go bark at the neighbor's dog :-) We love taking him on a daily walk, and he's getting very good at walking with a loose leash. We are so blessed to have him. My 10-year-old daughter said, "I never imagined having a puppy would be this nice."
