Do you have candy on the table?

Vi ovar tricks varje dag i vardagsrummet. Da hamnat treat-pasen pa bordet. Efter nagra sit, lie down och annat sa tycker jag att vi ar klara, men det tycker ju saklert inte Thor. Han vill ha mer godis. Han vet aven att vi ater var mat dar (ja, vi ater mest vid soffbordet). Han ar sa sot nar jag han forsoker se vilka kul grejer som ar dar uppe och om han kan fa tag i det. Han ar valdigt duktig pa att sta pa tva ben lange ocksa (framtida cirkusartist?? 🙂 ). 

I helgen har vi borjat anvanda hans sele. Tidigare har vi bara haft hans halsband nar vi gatt ut, for nar han behovde potty behovde vi fa pa kopplet snabbt och han har anda inte fa ga promenader. Men nu far vi halsa pa andra hundar och ga langre promenader och da ar det lite tufft for hans lilla hals. Sa nu nar han antingen skaller pa dorren eller tittar pa kopplet nar han vill ga ut (ja, han lar sig snabbt och ar smart) kan vi ta pa selen i lugn och ro, for han vet att vi kommer att ta med honom ut. Oh, det ar sa mycket battre med sele. Om han blir exalterad over flygande lov eller drar for att halsa pa andra, blir halsbandet som ett strypgrepp och han borjar hosta sa sele ar mycket sakrare. Vissa sager att hundar drar mer da for de kan inte kanna det, men vi far helt enkelt bara vara strikta med att han inte far dra i kopplet och hittils funkar det superbra! Han ar duktig pa att ga bredvid mig. Vi gick en langre promenad innan och han blev sa trott att han somnade nar vi kom in igen. Kul att vara utomhus helt enkelt 🙂

We are practicing tricks every day in the living room. The treat-bag then ends up on the table. After some sit, lie down and other stuff I think we are done, but of course Thor doesn’t think so. He wants more candy. He also knows that we are eating our food there (yes, we are most of the times eating by the coffee table). He is so cute when he is trying to see what fun stuff that is up there and if he can reach it. He is very good in standing on two feet too (future circus artist?? 🙂 ).
This weekend we have started to use his harness. We have only used his collar when we have gone outside, cause if he needed go potty we needed to quickly put the leash on and he also could’t go for walks. But now we are allowed to say hi to other dogs and go for longer walks and then it’s a little hard on his little throat. So now when he is either barking at the door or looking at the leash when he needs to got out (yes, he is a fast learner and is smart) we can take our time to put on the harness, cause he knows we will take him out. Oh, it’s so much better with a harness. If he gets excited over flying leaves or drags to say hi to others, a collar strangles him and he starts to cough so a harness is much safer. Some people say that dogs drags more then cause they can’t feel it, but just have to be strict with that he can not drag the leash and so far it works well! He is so good walking next to me. We went for a longer walk earlier today and he got so tired that he fell asleep when we came inside again. It’s just so fun to be outside 🙂 

Famous in this neighborhood

Alla i detta omrade vet vem Thor ar. Alla kommer fram och halsar och Thor ger dem pussar. Han ar en liten nallebjorn sa jag forstar om man vill lara kanna honom. Ibland kommer det fram folk som sager “Hej Thor” och jag har aldrig traffat dem. De har antingen traffat Jim eller hort fran deras familj att det finns en fluffig liten valp som heter Thor. Alla staller tusen fragor och alla skamtar om att sno med honom hem. Han ar redan en liten kandis. 
Vi gar just nu bara ut utanfor vart hus. Samma stalle varje gang for potty. Vi tar honom med lite langre promenad ibland, men veterinaren sa att vi borde halla honom till 90% av tiden. Vi har ny vet tid nasta vecka och efter det far vi forhoppningsvis ga langre och sniffa pa lite fler grejer. Da blir han nog kandis i hela Battery Park och inte bara var gata 🙂

Everyone in this neighborhood knows who Thor is. Everyone comes and wants to say hi and Thor gives them kisses. He is a little teddy bear so I understand if people wants to get to know him. Sometimes there is people coming that says “Hi Thor” and I have never met them. They have either met Jim or heard from their families that there is a fluffy little puppy named Thor. Everybody asks a thousand questions and everybody jokes about stealing him. He is already a little famous boy. 
We are only going out outside our house. Same spot every time for potty. We take him with for a little longer walk sometimes, but the vet told us that we should carry him 90% of the time. We have a new vet appointment next week and after that we can hopefully walk a little more and sniff more stuff. Then he will probably be famous in whole Battery Park and not just our street 🙂

Forever young

Thor ska lara sig alla basic saker nu. Potty, sitta, inte bita mobler och snart ska han fa socialicera sig med andra hundar, springa runt i parken och andra saker som hor till. Det ar tufft med bebisar, man ar helt slut i hjarnan och man tanker sig till framtiden da han kan alla de dar sakerna och vi kan leka och busa utan att behova saga nej om och om igen.
MEN, jag saknar redan den har tiden. Det ar nu vi lar kanna varandra, det ar nu som jag ar hemma hela dagarna och leker och det ar nu det ar som mest spannande. 
Thor ar verkligen en liten gosig kille och han passar sa bra in i var lilla familj. Vi alskar honom sa mycket!

Thor has to learn all the basic stuff now. Potty, sit, not to bite furniture and soon he will socialize with other dogs, run around in the park and other things that he needs. Its tough with babies, you have such tired brain and you keep thinking about the future when he can do all those things and we can play without saying no over and over.
BUT, I already miss this time. Now is when we get to know each other, now is when I’m home all day every day playing and now is the most exciting time.
Thor is really a little sweet cozy guy and he fits so well into our little family. We love him so much!
