Luckily, I'm only starting to work fully on the 17th of September, as Darwin is a hell of a job and need full time attention. We still have a long way to go in order to house train him.

On the day he arrived he was obviously terrified and almost didn't move from a blanket that we put on the floor for him. He ate meekly whatever dog biscuits we gave him and we started to though that he was mute as no sound came from his mouth. He even slept in the living room without any sign of distress.
The next day we took him for a walk and he was a bunch of nerves. Then I realised that he was totally institutionalised, the poor thing lived in the pet-shop kennel probably for months before we got him and he was totally used to not being special or loved. Poor darling!

Well, to make a long story short... by the second night he was adamant that he wanted to sleep with us in the room, if not on our bed, he wanted to eat at the table with us and he most definitely will not take less that 3 walks a day. He would pee and poo wherever he wanted to and he barks for England every time he wants us do to something. Plus he hated to be left on his own.

It was really amazing how fast he realised that he's loved and it seems that not a second later
he decided to push us to try and bend the rules to his advantage. He's very clever and he's going to be a challenge.

I wish Glynnis was here to give me some tips as how to house train him!!
