mia & stomper
Loveliest dogs ever. Except they were eating the entire kitchen while their parents were at work. Cabinets, linoleum tiles, chairs, tables, and even the replacement linoleum tiles. Throughout their six lessons, they both learned how to sit, sit-stay, lay down, stop jumping, stop playbiting, walk on a leash and stop using the rest of the apartment as a bathroom. They were both wonderful to work with and their parents were one of the few couples who practiced as much as they should've.
Mia and Stomper ended up having to be confined when left alone so they wouldn't run hog wild, shredding wee wee pads and the like. They have lots of pacifiers so as not to get too bored. Both respond well to a shake can correction when they're jumping or stealing. Overall, a great pair of dogs who happen to get along except when there's a pig's ear around. Love them silly.
