I had good, solid sleep last night. I didn't even try to put Ralphie in his crate for the night. However, I am training him slowly but surely to get used to the crate. I put Ralphie in his crate yesterday when I spent about an hour cutting the lawn yesterday. He cried the whole time. :-( Then later I ran up to the grocery store for about an hour and I crated him then as well. I think in time he'll be just fine with the crate.
Ralphie slept pretty much through the whole night except for one incident. I heard a KER-PLUNK around 4am. The sound woke me up and I see Ralphie sitting on the floor next to the bed with a startled look. I have no idea if he fell off the bed or jumped off the bed. But I lifted him back up and he went right back to sleep. We woke up at 6:30am, I took him out, immediately he did his business both ways.
After breakfast Ralphie and I played fetch with the ball and tugged on the rope toy. After our playtime, Ralphie made himself comfortable on the couch...
I sent this picture to my sister who has a Great Dane, jokingly she writes back, "are you sure you don't have a Great Dane there...look at those big paws!"
