Springs for Legs

July 20, 2014

Springs for legs-4

When we were back visiting Price’s hometown over the Fourth of July, we took full advantage of his brother’s great big backyard. We typically had him steaked on a leader so he could move around with some freedom to pick the best spots for laying under the trees. At one point we did let him off the leash to run around for a bit but we kept some cheese in our pockets as a quick bribe for him to come back incase he was thinking of running off into a neighbors’ yard. Thankfully he didn’t do that and just enjoyed running around after Price and me.

Prior to that we did have a bit of fun with him, some sticks, and my new camera. I love to get him to jump really high so I grabbed some good sticks as quick toy for him. Bostons are mega jumpers so he was easily leaping several feet in the air. I love that kind of jumping, not the jump on your clean dress or white pants jumping. Can’t he understand that?! ha!

Kemper Love-2

1 amazing year with this amazing dog!

We picked him up from the breeder last year on 2/2 so today marks 1 year of this adorable, energetic, lovable, annoying, stinky, kissy, farty pup!

Kemper Love-1

 

We’ve had so many good adventures with him over this year. We’ve survived house training in a blizzard, taken so many long sunrise walks on the beach, taken lots of hikes, been camping, traveled to NY, CT, NH, and ME, and much more! And now he has a baby sister to watch over!

We are so glad we picked him and can’t imagine life without him now. Can’t wait for the next year with our Kemper! xoxo

Kemper Running

yep. just a series photos of our puppy running.

I took these on Sunday during our walk. I can’t keep from looking at them and cracking up at our little man’s stone cold face running down the sidewalk. He is such a good pup and I can’t stop loving on him.

3 weeks of Kemper

February 23, 2013

today

As of today we’ve had our Boston Terrier puppy Kemper for 3 weeks. We just love our little man. Our little gentlemen.

It’s crazy to think it has only been 3 weeks as it seems like he has been with us forever. He has just blended into the routine. Well, I guess we are all just merging into 1 routine together.

2.6.13= 8 weeks, 3 days

On 2/8 he weighed 4.8 lbs and he has grown so much since that I can’t wait to get him weighed at his next vet visit on the 7th.

At first he was afraid of the hardwood floors and would sit on the living rug and whimper at the edge. Now he is a pro running around but he had to survive that scary first trip across the floor to the kitchen rug.

Blizzard Nemo

So far it has snowed 2x since we got him and he does not like it when it is snowing. Once the snow has hardened he is okay with it but getting him to go out in the snow… fat chance. It is going to snow tonight so I am hoping he will learn it is not scary and we will have less accidents when he pees right next to the pads… shm.

Emily gave Kemper this amazing blanket that she knit. We wrap him up like a burrito in it and he loves it. He loves to be wrapped up and tucked in when sleeping. The first night we had him he whimpered a bit in his pen in our room but I wrapped him up and he fell asleep quickly. He was from a large litter so we think he likes to feel weight/pressure on him since they would all pig pile up when sleeping.

He has silent but deadly farts. And he generally does them on when he is sitting or sleeping on your lap. Lovely.

One night he got a hair/dust ball  and thew up on the rug. Of course right on the white part of the rug. Twice. After that he felt 100% and ran around like crazy trying to attack the paper towels I was using to clean the rug.

What a cute Valentine!!

130215_Kemper At Work 130215_Kemper in my Coat

On the 15th I snuck Kemper into my office building by putting him in my coat. He did really well with everyone. I love the picture of him sitting between my coworker Jake’s feet. Everyone put full on baby voice when they saw him- so hilarious. I had to keep an eye on him since a few of them were joking around that they were going to steal him. 🙂 When Price came in from his office Kemper recognized him and was so excited to see him. Aww!!

When we all left my office we walked to the bus and he got over his lease issues. Prior to that he would not move more than few feet when on leash. I was excited to see him doing well and how people were reacting him him. People were oohing and awning as they watch him walking and running in that little lumberjack coat.

oh, he just loves the cuddles

130221_Kemper at Stairs

Price took this photo of him on the morning of the 21st. I can’t get over how little he looks, and yet how much he has grown. He can make it up the stairs all by himself, but, thankfully, has not yet learned how to make it down. We have moved the baby gate we used for the rabbits

130222_Kemper at Price's office_01 130222_Kemper at Price's office_02

Price took Kemper into work yesterday and was a huge hit with everyone there as well.. He went all around and was super friendly with everyone. Kemps even sat on one of his coworker’s desk and would watch Price from there.

10 weeks, 5 days old

At this point Kemper is starting to understand the work “Sit”. I say it all the time and give him a teeny tiny piece of an all natural biscuit when he plops his butt right now. He doesn’t listen to it as often when Price says it, but he has been good about altering him that he needs to go out but walking over to the door and sitting down there. Seriously, genius.

Playing around this morning

Can’t wait to for him to keep going and learning more and more.

Meet Kemper

February 4, 2013

Kemper dog

Normally, I’d have a Monday Munchies post today but I wanted to share all about Kemper instead. I could not resist!!

Kemper is our new Boston Terrier puppy. I am over the moon in love with him. Seriously, too sweet, too cute, and just so adorable.

We picked up our little 8 week old from the breeder on Saturday afternoon.

We finalized last week’s decision when we picked him out when he came over to Pricer sitting on the floor when the other 2 were so determined on going wherever they pleased. While the other 2 had great spirit we picked mister mellow.

I snuggled up with him on the ride to Petsmart. We got him some little things like a shirt and coat to keep him warm.

Kemper wrapped up

He loves being wrapped up or covered up in the blanket that Emily made him.

He got settled quickly and was playful in the afternoon.


Squee!!!

And then did a good job sleeping.

Kemper burrito_02

A really good job.

He slept well at night as well. We did a last trip out at night and made him run around like crazy so he would get tired out. Now, ‘run around like crazy’ means runs about 80′ total in the little yard in the front. ha! He slept from 12.15- 6.45. Yeah, he was really tired from an excited first day!

Price had Kemper all to himself yesterday as I was at work so I could get some work done as I’m out most of this week with the pup. He did well and moved around a lot, even making it up and down our driveway “hill”, ate well, and took plenty of naps.

kemper_01 kemper_02

He also slept well last night only getting up once at 12.35. Even then he calmed down quickly after I tucked him back in and gave him some pats on the back.

Well, so far so good. He met the rabbits and Jack seemed more welcoming than Bunny as Jack smelled him and Bunny thumped to show she was not happy with his presence. Kemper just had no idea what was going on as he never saw rabbits before, esp ones bigger than him. ha!

He is dozing in his crate now so I think I might get some scrapbooking done before taking him out again, and again.
