Funerals suck

Monday and Tuesday were hard. 2 wakes and then the funeral.

Poor Riley has probably never spent so much time alone in his life. You can't plan ahead for funerals, but if you could, I would have tried to find a doggie day care or something. Although, until he's fully vaccinated (which I think will be at 4 months), I don't think he could go to one anyway. Poor M drove like a bat out of hell to get home to take Riley outside before he messed his pen (folded down to crate size). Riley couldn't hold it though. So today I put a potty pad down even tho everyone tells me that'll just reverse the housetraining. But him going in his crate with no potty pad does the same thing, and one is easier to to clean than the other. My hands were tied in this case. Our house is far from the cemetary and you just can't plan ahead for these things.

Riley is being so good, so quiet in his pen. Alhtough when you take him out he is out of control because he's got two days of pent-up energy. But when he's in his pen, he's a quiet angel, quietly playing or sleeping away.
