Introducing Ringo
July 4, 2008 – 7:09 am
Ringo came home with me last night around 9pm.
He is not the puppy that I was supposed to pick up so I picked another.
He is a very large dog for his 5 months. His previous owner got him off the Internet, whatever that means but did not keep him very long. He has been at the SPCA for a few weeks and still has kennel cough which should clear up within 2 weeks. He is presently being crated and seems housebroken. He has puppy habits like jumping and mouthing forearms when you hold him by the collar. He seems to have been in a household where a woman was his primary care take while the males were his playmates. He still thinks he is a little puppy.
He listens and responds to commands. He can learn a routine pretty quickly like sitting down to have his leash put on. I ask him to sit before and after we come into the front door. He sits while waiting to cross the street. He is learning to heel. He needs to be told what to do and likes to follow around. He settles quickly at my feet when I sit down to work.

He is just TOOOO Cute! How old is he?
As soon as I’m driving again, I’ll drop off at that yarn that I have for you, unless you are coming to WI Knits this Wed night? It wont be in a bar (I cant bring Mack into a bar) so if you should have your daughter this week, you can bring her and come knitting? Let me know!

He is 5 months old only.
I hope to make it to this week’s knitting group. Marie-Tangerine is working on a scarf with katee’s eyelash + worsted yarn. It is taking shape. My only worry is travel time as I should get home at a decent hour. Looking forward to seeing you and meeting the baby.
