On December 3 2005, a new puppy has joined our house. He is a 5 month old Italian Greyhound. He is blue-fawn and ways about 10 pounds. His name was Albert, but it will be Pharaoh now. He is a very nice puppy. His affection towards people is good. He has already bonded with us and with some of our friends. He has a few problems with housetraining, for example he had to go to the bathroom and held it until he went outside. Then he went number 2 and wanted to quickly get back to the warmth. Then 10 seconds after coming in, he went number 1. We were not mad though. It will just take some persistance to get him to understand that it is ok to go on the newspapers. He makes very cute grumbling noises when he is sleeping.
