I am absolutely exhausted and the reason for this is a seven pound Boxer puppy named Izzy. With all the running around, babysitting, potty training I swear I feel like I just had an actual baby…minus the painful giving birth part. I swear this puppy is so rambunctious and into everything that you cannot leave her alone for thirty seconds otherwise she is doing something that she shouldn’t be doing. She is also the reason why I haven’t posted in a few days because once I get home from work and take care of her I shower and pretty much pass out. You might think that I should be use to this because of Madison, but you might be surprised to find out that I did not participate in raising Madison until recently. By “recently” I mean since I have changed my attitude towards her, which was about a month ago. So, I am not use to puppy behavior. Andy and I have been taking turns in waking up in the middle of the night to take her outside to go potty. At least she wakes us up to let us know she has to go instead of just going in her cage. She is also pretty good about telling us she has to go to the bathroom when she is just chilling in the house; however, not when she is on our bed. She has peed on our comforter two times now and I can be part to blame for not responding to her cries that she needs to get down and go to the bathroom. There is nothing like washing a peed on comforter at 9:30 at night when you are already EXHAUSTED! Even so, Andy and I feel she is still a pretty good puppy…or at least compared to Madison. Despite my exhaustion it has been worth it because Izzy is so adorable and cute that I am glad to get up in the middle of the night to let her go to the bathroom. I mean how could you get mad at this face?
