Presley and Jeter….are 7 weeks old today born on Dec.8th…they are American Staffordshire Terriers. From what I read there is a little difference from the American Pit Bull terrier.. The Staffy is slightly bigger and their demeaner is more subdued than the “Pit Bull”
They were just little angels flying through 3 airports, stowed under the seat…we snuck them out once in awhile durring the flight. I had two great gentlemen sitting by me on the Salt Lake City to Detroit flight that helped my hide them from flight attendents that were really ignoring the fact that I had them out. They slept on my and one of the guys laps for an hour each during the 3 hours ride…the flight attendents asked to see them as I was leaving the plane…so I knew they were looking the other way…
I have to thank Roxanne and Linda for helping me acquire them in CA. I was staying in a Hotel and Linda babysat them that first night. Roxie helped me decide I couldn’t buy one and leave the other and assured me I wouldn’t regret it…A special thanks to Drew who picked me up by 3:30 am to go to Linda’s and then an hour ride to the airport to catch a 6am flight to SLC. I will not tell you how good of time we made to the airport.
We went to the pet store yesterday and now I know what parents go through when they have twins….yikes! I have completely puppy proofed the house…removed all the rugs in the kitchen and entry ways,barricaded off the living room with big plywood pieces…who needs a gate? Removed all the kitchen chairs and it is now just a big playroom with lots of toys for them…they are doing pretty well on their potty training, but when they have an accident it is not ruining my carpets and making me mad at them…i hopefully have set them up to be successful! Thanks for all the questions and comments about them…I am praying they will be good companions and be able to go to the warehouse with Nick everyday when they get a little older…
