It's hard to believe that it will be three weeks this Sunday since Rupert came home. He's had a lot of fun with Fizzbo and they are now playing nice. Fewer and fewer tufts of Fizzbo fur are hanging from Rupert's mouth.
Rupert picked up a parasite (Giardia) and has been on medication for a week. It's doing the job and he'll be good as new in no time. He's a great pill taker, especially when the pill is slathered in peanut butter.
This week, Anne Wolff Nichols will be coming over for a little home schooling. We are excited to have her visit and teach us her methods of dog training. To learn more about Anne you can check out her website at http://www.becomedogsavvy.com/
On Saturday it will be another road trip to bring Hannah up to Michigan Technological University. Rupert will be riding along and Fizzbo will stay home to play with our friend Leslie. Hannah's going to miss her pups but will be very busy learning the lay of the land and living on her own. We are excited for her to begin her new adventure.
Rupert is now alerting us to his bathroom needs by going to the door. What a smart pup. He's only had two small accidents (due to human error) since he's been home. He's growing like a weed and now prefers to drink water out of the raised water bowl.
I will be bringing the camera home to get some better shots of him and will post them soon!

Although I have always loved Bull Terriers from afar, the opportunity to own one didn't appear until Spring of 2008. Our first Bully didn't live long (10 months) but he lived life to the fullest and filled our hearts with so much joy. We now have Emmett who is carrying on in Rupert's paw prints. He's doing a great job!

I bet he is really growing. Hope he battles the giardia with no problems. Glad you have him and Fizzbo since Hannah is going off to school. Waiting for more photos!
Hi Carolyn,
Boy is he ever growing. Yes, having Rupert and Fizzbo will help with Hannah's absence.
The giardia is hanging on and he is on another course of medication. Doubled in dose this time. I'm holding off on any more puppy shots until his gut is totally healthy. Other than that he's gaining and growing and running Fizzbo ragged.
