We adopted Admiral Nelson yesteday

We drove to central Florida yesteday with the whole family to meet Nelson. Scupper and Rudder were a little tired from the trip and really just ignored him after a sniff. Nelson slept for 2 of 3 hours it took to get home. Slept all night in his crate. I think he is very happy here. He has blue eyes that we will be able to see after a little trim.

you gave him the greatest x-mas present he will ever get...a family. Thanks!
Congrats! He sure looks like a happy camper and is making himself right at home. Bravo!!

Thanks for adopting!
He slept all night in his crate until 4 am. No accidents! He goes to the door to let me know he wants to go. He does not have an off button. I wish I had that much energy. My older terrier mix that sleeps in our bed is growling at Nelson when he tries to get on our bed. I think this will resolve itself. What is the best way to get him to stop chewing on my arms? I have tried yelping to show him it hurts. He has 2 nylabones, and a kong that he loves to chew on but Mommies arms are his favorite.

Ahhh...puppyhood!! :lol: :twisted: :lol:

Just keep stuffing toys into his mouth when he tries to nip your hands/arms/feet. It takes some time, but they do learn eventually.
I did try stuffing toys in his mouth, will keep trying
Thanks
What a cutie, you are both so lucky to have found each other.
Thanks and Merry Christmas :D
BTW: the chewing and nipping will get better.....in time :roll:
Oh he is named already!ignore the other post then.He is absolutely gorgeous.
Nelson is soooo cute! He looks like he has a LOT of energy.
Hey Gwen..
See you found the oes.org list.

Speaking as an owner of a sheepie "with" tail.. you are going to love him! He sure is adorable.

He is adorable! Congrats to all of you!
Aren't sheepie tails just awesome? If I were rewriting the breed standard, I'd make tailessness an objectionable fault.
