This is a visual history of Pepito’s progression from cute floppy baby ears to two erect ears at 4 months although the right ear has a bit of a curve which is quite charming. He is tiny, feisty, and a bit pudgy. We will definitely have to watch his weight as he moves into his teen period of development.
Carino and Pepito 
love to be wherever I am and are currently keeping me company while I am quilting.
Training is still going forward although in our current suffocating heat we have not done much leash training. Carino is really coming along, but Pepito is still shy and reluctant. House training is going well as long as I stick to a schedule. The biggest challenge is to teach them somehow to alert me when they need to go outside. They seem to recognize the words “outside,” “good potty-potty,” and “good poopy-poopy.” Their sleeping quarters are right by my side of the bed, and they do bark to awaken me when they need to go out in the morning—usually around 4:00 AM. After their duties are accomplished outside, I put them in bed with me where they happily snuggle until around 7:30. I am definitely not getting up at 4:00 AM!
They are healthy, content, and friendly to everyone .
