Because who doesn't love cute pictures of a puppy

It's been a wwhile since I've posted pictures of our perfect little pup. Willow turned 6 months old last week and is definitley looking more like a dog than a puppy. She is such a sweet dog and we are loving having here in our life!

Dan was home with the flu yesterday and spent most of the day in bed trying to sleep it off. I went in to check in on him and here's what I found. She is so good at knowing how to help take care of us!

Dan gets up with her in the morning to feed her and take her out, and when he's ready to leave she comes back to bed with me. first she'll wait on the bed side table and watch him leave, then she comes over to his pillow and pushes it around with her nose until she gets underneath it. I think she loves the warmth and that it smells like here dad!

I took her to get her haircut the other day and asked them to trim her up for summer, but NOT to shave her. When I picked her up, this is what she looked like. We joke that she's the Heidi Klum of puppies - she's so tall and skinny! We had no idea such a little dog was hiding under all that fur!

We've had Willow in and out of the vet since we got her and it looks as though she has irratable bowel. It's not fun, but it's nice that we know to be more careful with what goes in! So, she got into something last week and was feeling under the weather and was so snuggly! I snapped this picture late at nice when she was curled up with me. It was so, so sweet!
Other than that, Willow's not up to much. We just got her an invisable fence that we installed last weekend and are trying to train her to know its boundaries. She seems to be really attracted to the beep and we're having trouble going about the training in the way they say to because all she wants to do is be near the beep. (We haven't turned on the electric part yet) Have any of you done the electric fence thing and have suggestions? We can't wait until she has it all figured out and can run free in our yard!
