I so love the mural! It actually looks antique and so makes the room. Puppies are like babies for sure...or should I say more like toddlers in the sometimes terrible two's! Your courtyard/garden will be the perfect setting for the wedding.

So happy for you. I will offer a few tips for you regarding the dogs. First, Goldens & labs are VERY active as puppies. They will stay that way for a good 18 pos to 2 years. Around a year they will act like they forgot everything you taught them (just like teenagers). This is when you need to be most diligent and consistent with their training. Now, about allowing them on the furniture.....they should not be allowed without permission. You should invite them up, with an OK, or whatever word works for you. Not all dogs develop dominance issues from free access, but the reasoning for maintaining some control is explained at these links. ttps://www.thespruce.com/allowing-dog-on-the-furniture-1118283 or www.thrivingcanine.com/blog/2014/02/19/should-dogs-be-allowed-furniture. These links will help you stay the leader in your puppy relationship so things do not get more chaotic. <br /> I look forward to hearing all about the wedding preparations. So happy for you and the family.<br />Charissehttp://www.whimsicalhomeandgarden.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-214749393367392928.post-88981945768934172892017-09-02T10:35:07.514-04:002017-09-02T10:35:07.514-04:00Absolutely LOVE your mural.

Like children, dogs will NEVER be the same as each other. We've had several dogs over the course of our 40 years of marriage, my parents used to raise Border collies, and I've helped many a dog owner with training. It generally comes down to two things: 1)Each dog is different (even comparing one dog in a breed to another dog of same breed) and 2) When it comes to training, it's a "train the trainer" situation, usually ;-) The human has to be the boss, or in dog-speak, the human is the Pack Leader.<br /><br />Very much looking forward to seeing photos of the wedding design...and following the story about your beautiful dogs. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-214749393367392928.post-84182435647443750852017-09-02T10:22:33.702-04:002017-09-02T10:22:33.702-04:00I love that mural!

You ...I'd love to see how to paint that mural!<br /><br />You might want to put up the gates ASAP before the baby comes to train them, and so they don't see her as the intruder.GSGreatEscaperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03362042499522934670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-214749393367392928.post-49657401291575870382017-09-01T21:11:31.690-04:002017-09-01T21:11:31.690-04:00Sooooo many things going on!

It will be so pretty. ... and the courtyard is perfect! Hahaha! Piper is a teenager, and that's when most pound puppies get returned back to the pound. I can totally see them doing zoomies around your pretty living room. Love that you admitted to picking your sofa to match your doggies hair. <br />I just used jute colored twine to tie up my New Dawn, and sometimes pretty ribbon scraps too. Eventually the rose will get so crazy big, none of the twine will show...<br />Can't wait to see the wedding tent posts.<br /><br />xoxox's<br />CindyCindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16980709067973460368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-214749393367392928.post-59410340267707487462017-09-01T17:03:56.642-04:002017-09-01T17:03:56.642-04:00Your yard, mural and home are wonderful.

We crate trained her at night which she easily adapted to and set boundaries during the day. A training class was a life saver for us......and Maggy too. She quickly caught onto a firm voice. :0) <br />dianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17806473688551659244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-214749393367392928.post-26980679801467019732017-09-01T15:17:43.472-04:002017-09-01T15:17:43.472-04:00Such an exciting time for all of you, Amy!

I have little dogs and as puppies they were a handful. I think the gates are a great idea. You will find as your Grandbaby gets bigger that you are going to have to restrict her area too. My Grandson is 10 months and into everything! Our living room is open to the kitchen and dining area. The open part is too long for a gate and everyday I move furniture around and try to make a blockage. Not the ideal situation. Enjoy your dogs and the new baby! 😊 Good luck on the wedding too. I can really relate to everything you are doing right now!Shabby chic Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07823848210658888319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-214749393367392928.post-80708607717989792032017-09-01T12:56:59.801-04:002017-09-01T12:56:59.801-04:00Your daughter's wedding will be absolutely bea...Your daughter's wedding will be absolutely beautiful Amy.💖 I love your mural that you painted & your wall color is so very pretty!I love how you decorated your room too!<br />Your puppy dogs are adorable!
