a newspaper that's good. this dog is very mellow. i think the major thing will be getting her to not jump on people. she's so big and she'll knock somebody over one day i'm afraid...

and i'm not into heavy disciplinarianism so that's no thing. she's very smart too and she'll learn fast.

i worry about my cats. they are hidden in a dog proof part of the house and they won't come out. i guess they will just have to get used to each other. one of my cats (zeik) smacked her, she came a little too close. they didn't even come into my room and beg for food in the morning like they normally do. but that was actually kinda nice...
