There's only one first day...

Today has been so much fun!  Jet (yes, his name is now Jet, KSDS chose to change it because Indium was too repetitive with previous names of dogs) got to know his family, including Bailey.  We have all spent a LOT of time bonding with him.  He has had a lot of fun with some toys, the baby pool, etc.  He has also spent time in his crate, which I am pleased to report he settles very quickly in.  He went for a car ride.  If you remember, Churry was horribly car sick when she was little.  I want to expose him to short little rides right away so we don't repeat that problem, hopefully.  We visited Tayler at her job because Kinsey was modeling some clothes for their website.  Jet got to join in.  And guess what, he got his first taste of K-State football!  Yes, on his very first day!  You can't start that training too soon!  Aside from all the bonding and playing, Jet practiced sitting every time we went through the door.  He did awesome at this.  He has an amazing desire to please.  And the final thing to report about his first day....he was playing in the yard and within 5 minutes of being out there he presented me with a SNAKE!  Yes, a SNAKE!  It was dead and very short, but still.  If this had been Churry or Bailey, it would not have been a problem.  They know the "drop it" command!  Unfortunately, Jet did not know that one at all.  Kinsey just thought it was hilarious and wasn't helpful at all.  She said, "I'm sorry mom, I'm not helping with that."  Luckily, he was very compliant with me opening his mouth to get it out.  Enjoy some pics of our first day...
