Adjustments and Challenges







Well, I am officially the walking dead. Lol. The last 24 hours has proven more taxing on so many counts than I ever anticipated... and the mixed emotions is worse than the most hectic rollercoaster, no exaggeration!!! Firstly, it has been 15 + yrs since I have had a dog so the neediness of a puppy vs a kitten has been a huuuuge wake up call. Lol. Second, Jude was all thrilled until he saw just how much time and attention the puppy demanded and then had a complete meltdown because the pup was making him feel left out.

Then there is me, having not slept more than about 5 hrs.... trying to cope, manage and absorb all of this, plus still constantly having our beautiful, but lost Holly in my mind :( Massive Adjustments. I know they will be worth it, but daaamn...... am I feeling broken on all fronts. Baby steps.... #powerhousecreatives #share2steem #STEEM #life #blog #family #endurance #kids #dogs #cats #pets #learning #emotion

Until next time...

Aww, hang in there dog mama! ;) It's been quite a long time since I've had a dog reside in my house, but the occasional dog-sitting I've done over the years always reminds me how much work it can be. Especially with a little puppy! That face, though, I'm sure it will all be worth it in no time. You'll all settle into that routine and soon forget what it was like to not have him around.

Puppies are tough and needing the patience to train is very trying. I know I had lost patience a few times and had to step away. If I were to suggest something, it would be to kennel train. It will save a lot of nightly problems and also when you are away.

well the puppy sure is cute!

Everything will settle down eventually and you will all be able to relax and enjoy him xx

Adjustments are painful...but everyone learns in the end! Good luck :3

And the puppy is sure cute...

Ah! So good to see this my friend.
The right medicine for hurting hearts.
Puppy raising, house training, broken sneakers and a lot else awaits.
You will have to buy shares in a wine store hahaha.
Blessings!

Puppies are hard work.... They are extremely cute, but also a looooooooooooooooooot of work. I've always had dogs and every time, each puppy takes a lot of time to teach and welcome into the household.... They are so worth it, though, they are such beautiful creatures :) Good luck, @jaynie and Jude ! <3
