Alice was on the go straight out of the gate (or crate)! She is a very curious puppy, and loves to explore all areas. While she started out in just the living room, she is moving onto the kitchen and mud room. She also enjoys the great outdoors, and hops when you take her on walks. We are working on walking and stopping when we cross the road.
Alice has a happy appetite and loves her two square meals a day. She also relishes the treats in between the meals, but those are good-girl treats only. She is a good girl, working at pottying only outside, although there was a setback the other day.
Alice loves her chew toys. Being a puppy, she is a nipper and a chewer. I got her, and foster grandmomma, got her some chew toys. At first she was hesitant about them but now she loves them, especially her teddy and alligator.
Alice has gotten better about making noises when I go off to work. The first few days, she would wimper (loudly) when I would leave. By giving her a small rawhide stick, she is occupied and does not have a problem when I leave. She also has learned that my roommate and I won't come running everytime that she wimpers. She is going to be a great dog for somebody to love.

Also, Alice had a bath tonight and smells - and looks - awesome!
