Wow, sounds like I will continue to have my work cut out for me. THe intersting thing with Maggie is that she knows that she is not supposed to do what she is doing.. she will grab something and have it half hanging out of her mouth, come where I can see her and then run like h*ll when I want to get it out of her mouth.. and boy can her mouth hold some stuff. We have quickly figured out that you have to search the mouth because it is so big she hides things in the back when taking in more. She now has the chow doing the same thing when they are playing. The chow does not get in trouble unless the newfie is getting in trouble.... And oh my gosh, to think of the wedding dress, that is beyond words.
This weekend I was out in the yard picking up after the girls and I could tell who's poo poo was who's by what it contained. One time, Maggie walked in with at least 2 feet of rope hanging from her back end. I guess she got it out as far as she could so I Slowly pulled and she had completely eaten a large rope toy and at least 6 feet of string came out of her.
Now,she is big enough to have her head above the counter so we are always worried about what she will get off the counter. We are very careful with nonfood related items like medications, etc -- the food may make me mad but will likely not kill her. When I am in the kitchen now cooking, I will see a head come up between my body and my arm with the nose pointing toward the counter, If I move, she moves right along with me, like we are attached, It is hysterical.
Thanks for all the feedback, I appreciate it. We just love our goofey newfie and her sister... we have so much fun with them and they are the best part of our day. To get the newfie look right into your eyes will melt you away but just looking at the droopey eyed, drooling, HUGE puppy that she is, you just know from the look just how naughty she can be!!
