Sup Dog

Our puppy was finally old enough to bring home this past weekend.  We went and got him on Thursday night. Friday, Nate spent all day playing with him- taking him inside, taking him outside, putting him in his cage, letting him out of his cage, doing it all over again.  Sup had a great time playing with him.

 Adam was the family member who begged and pleaded and negotiated the most for a dog, so he got to name the puppy.  He chose the name that he had chosen a few years ago for one of his Webkinz stuffed animals- "Sup."  Joe had veto power, but he decided that he liked the name, so it has stuck.  The good thing about a name like Sup is that you can say, "'Sup, dog!" 

 Satruday, Adam had a football game and so Joe took Sup with him to the football game.  It kept Ellie busy the whole time we were there, it was great.  Afterwards, we went to our property.  The kids walked around like a little peloton, with the dog checking out all the things to see at the land.  Unfortunately, I didn't get my camera out, because it was really cute. 

 All of the kids love the dog.  They love playing with the dog and picking him up and generally harrassing him.  Sup is a patient puppy and never complains about all of the attention.  He does however, not like to be left alone and whines in his crate whenever we put him in there.  That is a big problem when it is bedtime because he wants to be gotten out every hour or so to go potty. 

Hopefully, he will grow out of the crazy nights soon because both Joe and I are suffering from some serious sleep deprivation.
