    Default Biggs Update

    Mr. Biggs is settling in well. He's a sweet sweet dog. Aside from the constant peeing..I catch him marking even with the band on and there's always pee in it. I'll have him checked when he goes in for his neuter or maybe I'll try to get some pee and take it in monday. any tips on pee collection?
    He and Segue played for a lot of the day yesterday. It's so nice for Segue to have someone to play with. I don't know how Bigg's people could have thought he was too active...Seg is twice as hyper and wears him out. They were racing in the backyard and my agility boy was lapping him LOL. Big circles.
    Biggster is afraid of squeaky toys but he's watching Segue play with them so perhaps he'll catch on.
    He's super loving..he'd sit on your lap forever I think. I might start some training with him today...just simple things to see how/if he learns. I don't think he's had a lot of experience with anything...he doesn't chew the bones I give him..doesn't like toys...doesn't walk on a leash...can't do his nails or anything like that.
    Salsa had a short relapse into Fear Of Biggs but recovered. Don't know what's up with that. I put some of my frangrance oil on him just in case he smells funny LOL.

    Cash does the same thing. He pees all the time. When I put a belly band on him there was always a bit of pee on the pad when I took it off. I've done pee collection. I just take them out on a leash with a little plastic container and stick it under when they pee. It sort of freaks some of them out. Cash was easy because he pees a lot. Miller was a PITA. He leaped away like it was gonna burn him. Try to get it fresh in the morning for the best analysis.

    It sounds like Biggs is doing well. And Salsa's Fear of Biggs . . . I have no idea.

    Great update! Im happy to hear Biggs and Segue are friends. I wonder about Salsa?

    I hope after his neuter the marking is controlled!
