My New Family Member
His name is Charles Barkley McLovin and he is my new dog. He is a Boston/Beagle. He is not too big because i cant have a big dog while im renting my house. He is very quiet, hasnt even barked since i had him so far. He does of course pee in the house, making me mad. I know it takes time to train a dog, but don't you wish that a dog can just be born knowing to go to the restroom outside and to eat his food out of the dish?
This dog is stressing me out some because he sniffs everything and he loves eating grass, but he won't eat his dog food. The second day i had him Brandon and I left him in the backyard for like 30 minutes and when we got back he had crawled under the gate and run away. Luckily, i have great neighbors. It was funny because when i was down the street i told one of my neighbors and she said she hadn't seen him, but by the time i got to my house and got out the car i saw another lady walk out the door saying "about 30 to 45 minutes ago and he has a red collar." i looked at Brandon and said "she talking about me" lol. They all were looking for him, even their kids were on bikes. He turned up two houses down and i was so happy. Now i watch him every time he goes outside. I love him already. All he does is cuddle and sleep and he is quiet. I just wish he would stop eating grass.

I love the blog...one of your best ones yet. Very funny. You and Charles are cute...you look very happy in that picture.
GO TRAIL BLAZERSS -
That is perfect! Now you can't bend down to pick up Poo, so have Brandon do it!
Hahahahaah! -
What a cute puppy Greg! That picture of the two of you, we can't tell which one is the Puppy! Awww! Love you Sweetie!
Now let me tell you the best way to get Pee out of the carpet:
Get a towel and soak up all pee
get boiling hot water & add some vinegar to the water
pour on the spot and then take another towel & soak that up, (step on the towels)
place a clean towel over the wet spot until dry
Now ask Brandon to use the Bathroom from now on! hahahaha!
Actually works, remember my Afghan Angel, we had a few problems with her!
-
-
She's fine Greg, Don't worry, she peed in the house when we first got her! Now she is great!
-
Haha, you guys are too cute. I used to have a beagle, and he would eat grass when his stomach was upset to make himself throw up. Yeah, I know that's gross, but maybe you should talk to the vet and make sure he isn't having stomach problems... good luck with the puppy poop!

The traditional "Get drafted first round, move out to the new city, get a dog" move, I like it!
-
Hey Greg, that's funny about the dog. Keep getting better.
BTW, were you at Best Buy last Friday? My first period teacher said one of his friends saw you there and you were so tall that his head didn't even get past your crutches.
Best of luck. -
-
Nonono, dont you see Greg? Your neighbors are the ones who *stole* the dog. They're just orchestrating a series of events to get in your good graces till they rob you blind... dont fall for it!
-
The McLovin last name is great.. Never saw you as a dog person though Greg. :)

Question for ya greg, any plans for this year since you wont be playing ball? back to school perhaps?
-
-
Greg, I'm glad you didn't get a Cavalier King Charles. Those muppets are a misery. Be well.
-
Cute dog. Must be just a puppy. Didn't know you sported the glasses but you look smart.
-
-
bacon is the key, take him outside to pee, when he goes do your best happy dance around him and give him a piece of bacon, HOUSE BROKEN IN ONE TRIP, you give your dog a piece of pig after he goes he'll never lift his leg in your house again.
-
-
nice name!! get a crate, and don't let him on the furniture.
-
We live in your neighborhood. We want to bring Charles Barkley a new toy. Can we come visit him?
-
i'm glad that you got a mutt. mutts tend to retain the best that their breeds have to offer (2 of my 3 dogs are mutts). you also tend to avoid the genetic conditions that pure-breeds can have. if you haven't found a vet yet, my wife is one of the best in the area (check out frontier vetinerary hospital). keep us posted on the dog.
-
awesome, now you're truly a Portlander, we love our dogs here, looks like you picked a winner too
-
now you're officially a Portlander, we love our dogs here, and it looks like you choose a winner--plus there's no better remedy when you're feeling down
GO blazers -
Nice dog
-
lol i love the name greg
you are so funny -
Greg!!! Glad to see your video and see first hand that you are doing okay. Glad Brandon is there to help out AND I know he keeps you laughing. Just PLEASE, don't let him drive you around town! :-) We're all thinking about you and praying for a quick recovery. You have the drive and perseverance to overcome...and you'll do it with class and dignity. We're so proud of you...as good as you are on the court, you are an even better young man. Hi To Ms. Zoe and we're keeping a good eye on Anthony. Take care, sweet pea...and make sure you say hi to Brandon. He STILL owes me an email. Mrs. Sivertson

Nice dog

How old is that dog??

Hey, Greg. Great name for your dog! You might try getting some "puppy pads". They're like these square mats you can put down in the house that are scented to encourage them to pee on them. Anytime the dog pees in the house, take him outside right away and eventually he should figure it out. Also, make sure if he pees in the house to clean up the spot right away with special cleaner that will remove the scent, otherwise the dog will keep peeing in that spot. Good luck, raising a pup is a lot of work, but it's worth it! I hope you're feeling better. Keep your head up, man!
-
Do you have a real myspace? not one of those fake ones that a crazy fan makes?
-
That, and also, do you know if Brandon has a real myspace?
-
He doesn't. He already confirmed that. I don't know about Brandon though.
-
Very cute dog Greg. Continue to have a good recovery.
-
Get that dog a diaper. Looks sharp too.
-
i just got a beagle and it does all the same stuff as yours except not eat his food. Hes probably going to start biting everything soon.
-
"Charles Barkley McLovin"
What a great name. -
He could be the new yardbarker mascot.
-
I love the name!
-
My dogs eat grass too.
Its normal.
Wolves and coyotes eat grass and plants also in the wild.
I looked it up on the web just to make sure.
But your not supposed to let your dog use any salad dressing.
So keep that toward the back of the fridge.
I have also heard that some high class dogs like croutons and parmesan cheese.
Greg...
I am sooooo glad your a blazer!!!
Love your dog!
PS...attached is a pic of one of my dogs.
Name is Canyon
She eats anything...not just grass.
