Oh my gosh, I haven't posted about Watson in way too long.

My big tough watchdog

 He is 4 months old today! My, how the time has flown by. We went to the vet today for his last puppy shot and his rabies  shot...he weighed in at 7.3 pounds!! I can't believe it! Average weight for a male mini dachs (full grown) is around 11 pounds...he's almost there!

He jingles now, since I put his rabies tag on. He already had an ID tag. It's nice to be able to hear him wherever he goes. But he keeps trying to eat the tag. He's a genius *eyeroll*

Really though, he is pretty smart. He can (usually) sit on command, and "down" (lay down) is getting there.

Speaking of smart, Little Doctor is also a total sneak! A few weeks ago he had a case of worms and some poo problems, so he was on medicine. He wouldn't take the pill if I tried to hide it in bread or peanut butter, but I hated having to shove it down his throat twice a day. So one morning, I just put it in his bowl with his kibbles, hoping he would just eat it. When I checked later, it was gone. So I did that again. Nice and easy, he eats the pill and I don't have to shove meds down my puppy's throat.

Later though, I was searching for a toy in his little playpen, and lifted up his bed. Guess what I found. Two little pills. Little smarty pants took them out of his bowl, and HID them under his bed!!

Well, after that little stunt, they just kept going down his throat. Smart little booger.
