Snow: A new addition to Jacoby's life.

It is October 15 and it is currently snowing outside. That is not normal. This is Connecticut not North Dakota! However, it is Jacoby's first snowfall so I threw him outside to check it out.
Okay, so its not sticking... But, he was a little weirded out. I can't wait for it to actually start snowing because I know he will love it.

The little monster came down with an eye infection last Thursday. I am not completely sure how he got it but I noticed grossness around one eye a few hours after he got groomed... The following day, it still was gross so my mother decided to wipe them with a cloth. She proceeded to wipe both eyes with the same cloth... Guess who now has a double eye infection?

It didn't clear up by Monday so I brought him to the vet and $72 later, he has a diagnosis and some eye drops.

I weighed him when we were at the vet and he weighs 37 pounds! He is a beast. He is 18 weeks old now and the vet estimates him to be over 60 pounds when he is full grown. (The breeder told us 45-50 pounds!) We love him though, we don't mind a beast, we just weren't expecting him to be so big!

He has been doing well in puppy training class. He is very smart, he just has some behavioral issues. Matt and I have been working very hard on getting him to stop biting, jumping, and just overall being high energy. So, I enrolled him into daycare! We went and checked out two places. One was what I expected but the other was above and beyond what we were looking for, and it was cheaper! I am hoping to get him started tomorrow but he definitely will be going next week.

He has to go next week because I start my job on Monday!
