I made the trip to PA and brought back the long awaited pup. We are trying to get back into "puppy mode" but the middle of the night potty trips are something we haven't done for quite a while. Gypsy has some growing up to do. Attachments:

Are springers much the same as Cocker in that regards ? and when they do grow up they never realy get over over flowing when excited? or very few do.

The house training is getting better and the wife and I are sharing the middle of the night potty trips. She is taking Gypsy outside for the midnight one and I get the early morning one. Most of the time it has been around 5am, except this morning when nature called at 4am. I decided to just stay up and get the coffee going. Oh well, it will get better.

Things are progressing well. Gypsy loves to play in the snow and her favorite toy is my snow shovel. I have to throw it in the air and she jumps to get it.
Training is (was) progressing until last week. I had foot surgery which has put me mostly inactive for a while. There was a fair amount of pain for a couple days. Working from home this week and need to elevate it periodically but I have gotten off of the strong pain meds. Full recovery is 6-8 weeks. Training will be indoors for a while. Hopefully I will be good to go when the ice comes off the river for fishing.
We struggled with a name for a while for AKC registration. We had the Gypsy part but needed more. A couple of weeks ago she started smiling at us. The breeder said she might. SO now we have a name.....Ehrenberg's Smiling Gypsy.
