Oh- and about our male- if this dog had wandered off, it would have been more rational for our little girls to wander off rather than him-
what did Willy do all day? well he got really used to staying inside because of his foot- we were trying to wean him off of it. So- if i didnt see him on the front porch, he was the one pup that stayed closest to the house by laying under the tree in our yard or on our back porch which is ironically where we keep the dog food.
As far as being a young unneuterd male- ask our vet. he's still too young to be fixed. Otherwise he and his three sisters would be.
