Thanksgiving in Utah

Jeff was lucky enough to have 5 days off for Thanksgiving weekend so we packed up and headed to Utah. We were worried about how Scout would do with the 6 hr drive because every time we take him in the car he shakes and cries/barks like there's no tomorrow. It's both sad and annoying. After talking to our vet we bought some benadryl and hoped we wouldn't have to use it. He did great on the drive up there, curled up between the two of us the minute we got in the car and didn't have an accident! Of course the second we set him on the floor at Chris and Tess's house (after Jeff stood outside with him to go, and he did) he pooped on their rug! Ugh.
We had a wonderful time in Utah with our families and had 2 very delicious turkey dinners. Unfortunately we didn't take any pictures but these few I got on my phone, we are lame!
Chuck and Scout, long lost brothers. Jeff said no to me bringing home my own cat but I'm still insisting Scout needs a kitty ;)


Lollie "cookin"
Both our breeder and vet told us that Yorkie puppies can only hold their output for as long as they are old so for Scout who is 2 months we can only expect him to hold it for 2 hours. We had just passed the last Beaver exit, with Scout asleep in the back and were confidently on our way to Cedar when he woke up and started to whine. I don't know why we thought he could make it but he climbed onto Jeff's lap (lucky me!) and next thing I know Jeff says, "Is he peeing?!" Yes.
Yes, he was in fact peeing, on jeff's lap. Oops! Sorry baby and sorry Jeff! hehe We couldn't really be mad at him because it was our fault but it was gross and hilarious and we made a stop so both boys could clean themselves up! Other than that our drive was as great as the first, Scout slept and entertained himself for 6 hours, but put him in the car for 5 mins and you better pack some ear plugs!

  1. Oh when I got your text I thought Scout had done # 2 on Jeff's lap. # 1 is much better.
