Time flies so fast. It seems we've met each other just a few weeks ago but it also looks like we've been together forever. It is wonderful how fats you adjust to changed circumstances like waking up at 5 AM instead of 10 AM. So the question is who is training who lol
Big and small business.
I've been quite lucky with this matter. Partially because i have an opportunity to walk Sato often as i live in my house with the big lawn. We are going out every hour or so. He does not do his needs in his own cage, and initially he used to be locked in a cage when i am not around and then we go outside, do "dirty business" outside and get a treat.

Chewing things.
Then i would leave cage door open when i am in the room, and he would get back to his cage when bored of for a drink. Now cage door is mostly open all the time, i tend to lock it though when i leave the room since i have a house renovation going on and there are cables and other non puppy proof things all around. And staffies are curious as all the other puppies and they are chewers.

Vegetarian
Satoshi is eating grass on every walk. I was a bit concerned at first thinking it could cause some issues but after some reading i gave up chasing as he picked up another straw. It appears dogs do eat grass to clear their intestines and supposedly are getting some sort of vitamins. he did not have any digestion problems and there was no vomiting from it, so i let him to enjoy some vegetarian diet. You should be careful with you favorite flowers though as they might just be his favorites too :)

Growing up.

It's surprising how fast puppies grow and introduce new tricks into their behavior and how more mature they get with each day. Sometimes Sato is playful as fire sometimes he's rock solid and serious. I forget to buy scales all the time to track growth of the puppy, should do it today since i need to track his weight to ration his food. I will be adding more of my experiences as Satoshi grows, so if you are considering getting yourself a staffy friend or find any of the information useful please follow my feed. I'll be more than glad to share and answer your questions that i already know answers to in the comments.
