Boscoe is a black labrador retriever puppy. He will hopefully be an accomplished hunting retriever in the future. This blog will serve as a record of sorts for his training as he progresses and grows. He's a great pup!

Boscoe wants to be really clean...

So Monday night Boscoe decided it would be a great idea to taste test the mop water that was left out. It contained an unknown concentration of lysol...bad idea puppy! So we made a surprise visit to the vet's on Tuesday (also read expensive - but well worth it lol). We got some meds that he hates taking and some prescription canned food (probably the most expensive part of the visit). He was lethargic on Tuesday and wouldn't eat or drink at all. By Tuesday night, after some meds, water, and canned food, he was rearing to go! He's pretty much his normal self today, very bouncy. He got to retrieve his goose wings today and loved it! Doing well with the retrieving, his distances are about 10yds right now, I don't want to push it. He weighed in at 14lbs. at the vets, still growing like crazy. I will get some new pics and put them up after the wedding this weekend probably. He's doing great though, sit is awesome and he will come to a whistle now too. I think he's getting started off right so I'm very happy and can't wait to see what he can do. So, just a word to the wise, they can get into worse things than you can imagine when they're out of sight for even 5 seconds!!
