For those of you who don't know, next Monday, Chris and I leave for 2 1/2 weeks in the Mid-west. We ARE bringing Eden and Rai. We ARE crazy. Anyways, Eden is pretty potty trained (knock on wood). In fact, the other day, we were gone for about 8 hours, and Eden didn't have an accident the whole time. Rai, on the other hand, peed. But, he was kind enough to wipe it up with his towel, fold it up so that the pee was on the inside, and push it to the back of his crate (translated, that means that Rai peed on his towel, wrestled with it for a while, and then pushed it to where he hoped we wouldn't see it). But, that's better than what we figured would've happened (Rai, pees in his crate, rolls in it, and lays in it until we get home). So, because of Rai's problem with waiting to pee outside, I bought him some pee-pee pants for the trip. Chris and I decided we would prefer NOT to smell pee-pee puppy for the whole drive to Sioux Falls. So, I put Rai's pants on him the other day, as a quick run through, and a "get used to your new pants". The pants are denim on the outside and a soft, flannel plaid on the inside. There are little pee-pee liners that stick to the inside and soak up the pee. And they even have a hole for Rai's tail! At first, he was fine because he was eating. But then, both he and Eden noticed the new pants, and went after them with a vengance.

Here, they are both chasing the pants. Rai, spinning around, and Eden chasing him.

Eventually, Rai got his teeth into the pants. That's when I took them off. Hopefully, he'll be good with them by next Monday.
