PROS
1. She loves to snuggle with us and sit on our laps
2. Has had very few accidents, potty training is going pretty smooth
3. Is adorable
4. She is so fun to just watch play with her toys, so funny
5. Barks at her own reflection (we find this funny)
6. Sleeps through the night no problem, never whines when we put her in the crate
7. Has been very easy to train, she can do: sit, down, shake, high-five, roller over, and crawl
8. Has gotten much better on the leash and I take her for walks often
9. Has no problem with other dogs, actually loves playing with them
10. Is not a big barker, thank goodness
11. Does great when we leave her for work and such, sometimes I think she actually looks forward to getting rid of us for a while so she can just sleep
CONS
1. Still does the puppy 'biting', its getting a little better but she does still use those razor teeth - OUCH!
2. Anytime she greets new people she lets out a little pee. SOOO annoying and I have absolutely no idea how to fix that. I have tried a few different things, but any guidance or help would be much appreciated.
3. Only will eat if we are standing right next to her, otherwise is way to distracted
4. Loves to lick people's feet, its kinda nasty
5. Recently we have been noticing that she sheds a little, which is a HUGE disappointment since they are supposed be almost a no shed kind. It is still just a little, but definitely noticeable. Maybe she is just getting her adult coat or something....ugh.
Overall it is going great and we love her a ton!
She looks like such a skinny little rat when she is wet!
She LOVES her stuffed monkey, definitely her favorite toy
Alyx got her bows for her hair, so cute, however she has no desire to leave them in for more than a few minutes at a time
She also received a rain coat as a gift, sooo funny. And yes we know it is ridiculous, but still think its adorable :)

You are soooo lucky about the no barking and loving other dogs! And you must tell me how you taught "crawl" ...sounds so cute! The biting will get better, but it might be awhile yet. And the peeing thing - Cooper does it too but only when he's VERY excited....so we've been asking guests to not greet him right away and we keep him babygated in the kitchen for 5-10 minutes until he settles down, then we introduce the guest. It has been helping!
Sorry to comment again but the raincoat is ADORABLE!
