Freedom

today i got to take my cow outside and play with it but kizzy kept taking it away from me! i jumped on her and got in trouble. im not supposed to do that cause shes old. mom put the x-pen around my crate so now i can to in and out when i want to and i have a yard to play in when im in the house but theres no grass in this yard and im not allowed to dig in the carpet. i still dont like it cause i want to run all over the house but i cant cause i eat everything. and i can go down the back steps now but i still need help cause i go to fast and fall. mom says i gained a whole pound since friday and grew a whole inch! im not biting so much anymore.

Cowboy has gained a little over a pound since last Friday and now weighs 10.5 pounds!  He’s also grown a whole inch and is 11” tall at the withers. 

I’ve been blocking both the kitchen and hallway with the x-pen and baby gate and letting him loose in the living room, which he just loves.  FREEDOM!  Well, almost. The problem with this is that now he doesn’t want to be in the crate anymore. 

Tonight I placed the x-pen around his crate to give him a little more room to move around, but not have the run of the living room.  That way Kizzy can also move around freely and not feel left out because she’s blocked from the room - he’s far too rough with her.  He knocks her over in the back yard and she can’t maneuver away from him, nor is she assertive enough anymore to stop him and she’s turning into a crabby old lady.
