Ben

Hi Don,

Just want to let you know that we are doing well. Like all puppies, ben likes to chew and bite on anything he gets a hold of. He was constantly chewing on the drawer knobs in the kichen until today. I put tabasco sauce on them . All it took was one lick and as of now he has stayed clear of them and a few other things that he has been nipping at.

Right now he is only up once during the night for a pee break. (Settles around 8:30 - 9:00 and wakes up around 6:30.) The kids just love him. They enjoy running around with him outside. I took him to work and everybody made a big fuss over him. Overall i think ben is adjusting very well. He knows where his water dish is, and when you say "kennel" he goes right to it. We just love him so much. Ben has completed our family. We can't thank you enough.

I'm sure as the weeks go on and when training starts (which will be probably be late next week) i will have lots of questions for you. In the meantime take care.

Bethany
