Kristi,

This weekend was 16 weeks and we visited both the vet and the beach J  She weighs 20 pounds and is getting so big!  Everyone asks where we got her and compliments us on how happy and loving Maddie is all the time.  She loves the ocean even though it’s still really cold and spent the day playing with other dogs in the water.  There’s also a dog park nearby that we take her to and she loves to run around and play. 
We’re still working on not peeing in the house.  When she starts to pee we continue to tell her NO and take her outside but for some reason she won’t hold it when’s she’s out of her cage.  She’s in her cage during work days and never goes but we will keep working on it.  Let me know of any suggestions or other way to punish her if you have any.  She goes to the door to go pee outside probably 75% of the time.  Also, if we don’t get to the door right away she squats right there. 
I set up an appointment for her to get spayed on March 9, the shelter only charges 60, the vet said 225…so yes I scheduled it at the vet J  Hope all is well up there and that your weather is getting warmer!
