I need Puppy Derkins to grow up just a little!

[Susie]

Puppy Derkins turned 6 months yesterday.  We still have baby gates up through parts of the house, because she's housebroken, but we can't give her full run of the house just yet.  She needs a little more supervision to keep the chewing to toys only, and to some extent to avoid accidents.

But omfg.  Getting my leg high enough (I'm short) to step over baby gates after long runs and rides to get into the kitchen is a bear.  My hamstrings are swearing at those gates so loudly right now... If I make it through this summer without killing myself catching a foot on a gate or something, I'll be amazed.

I feel you.

That does sound rough! Good thing she's cute enough to make up for it, right?

My puppy will be 6 months on the 17th! We still have baby gates (and most likely will for a while to keep him out of the "kitty cookies"), but got the kind with the latch/door - worth the investment

Get gates with doors.

This, especially if you think you'll get use out of them another time too.

Your pups are so cute!

Aww. Puppy D is growing up!! Hope the pup matures quickly e bought to ditch the baby gates but slowly enough for you and C to enjoy the puppy phase.
