Mutt? MUTT?!?! Who you calling a mutt, bud? <g>

He is doing well and learning quickly. He now knows his name and responds to a few commands (primarily "No" <g>). The housebreaking is also coming along although still evolving. I took him for his first vet appointment on Saturday and everyone there was swooning over him. Even Dr. Barcus (that's really her name -- talk about destiny), who recommended against getting a lab.

In about four months he is going to have a vet appointment he won't enjoy as much -- the Big Snip.

I am putting in about as much effort training my daughters as training Crash. They still take their eye off him sometimes. I told them to put him in his crate or out back if they couldn't supervise him but they get a phone call or something and forget. On two consecutive days last week I came home from work to find a Sopranos box set and a windowsill chewed up. Not good.

How is yours doing?

I spent a couple of hours messing around with it and "progressed" to the point that the flash drive is no longer bootable <g>. Oh well. The laptop running Vista is usable, just not as well integrated with the two XP boxes as I would like. We'll get by.
