Swiss Lick Swissies

Sorry, there will be words!

I know, I know.  Most bloggers do Wordless Wednesday.  I can’t do that!  It’s my second day…  That would just be plain silly.

I was greeted at 6am by a Swissy puppy attacking me as I left the bedroom.  I’m not sure where the energy came from that early, but she was all mouth and claws.  Not good when you’re trying to get to the loo…  I have a nice scratch down my leg, and somehow she got high enough and scratched my shoulder.

But now you get to hear the “fun” part about raising a Swissy.  They do not housebreak quickly.  If someone tells you they house trained their Swissy in under 5 months, they are either lying or they don’t bring their dogs inside until they are old enough to hold it.

As I am getting ready for work this morning, a really nasty odor comes my way.  Indy, who I saw “go” outside not 5 minutes before, has decided that she has to “go” not 1 but 2 more times in the house.  (Thank dog for wood floors…)  At least I didn’t step in it.  But when will it stop?  Granted, the 1 oops a day we’re currently at (this counts as 1 in my mind) is way better than the 1 oops ever 30 minutes that we experienced early on, but can she be house trained soon?

I’m getting really tired of the poop.
