MC, Athena, & Peryn |
I've definitely noticed a change in Duchess. She's more social and playful (for her) than she has been in the past. Peryn has definitely been good for her. I hope she realizes that he's going to get bigger soon and she won't be able to push him around much more.

Peryn. Peryn. Peryn. This boy has some energy. He's hilarious and frustrating at the same time. He LOVES to play fetch. So we try and tire him out with that inside the house. He's gotten so BIG. He's not a little puppy anymore ( to us). He's a little doggy. He goes for his 3 month appt Thursday, so I'll have a weight update then.
Training with him was at a standstill. He knew sit. He's been shown Paw over and over and over, but he doesn't do it on command. He understands Potty. On the FB group there are all these people telling what their puppies can do and Peryn is behind the curve.
I looked into Clicker Training. Read up and watched vids on it. Picked up the clicker yesterday. We now have Lay Down added to the list. We're also working on Leave It, Cuddles, and Come.
I have faith it'll work. He is really interested in the training.
What else to tell you? Some days he's like the energizer bunny. He keeps going and going and going, much to his sisters' dismay. Other days he's pretty chill.
He sure loves his Mommy though! Well, he loves us all. He adores his sisters and it's so cute. They're just not always wanting to be with him --even if he feels like they should. I'm pretty happy at the progress we're making.
He met his Uncle Davey the other day. Uncle Davey lives very far away and was the first in my family to meet the pup. The girls were deliriously happy to see Uncle Davey as well. They all fought for his attention. It was cute. Not sure how much Uncle Davey liked it though.
I wish my parents could meet him as he is now. Sadly, they won't until he's a bit bigger. Hopefully I'll have him skillfully trained by then.
Peryn's doing a little better at night. Some nights we can get in 4 1/2 hours of sleep. Others it's every two. This past weekend was HORRIBLE. Throw in a time change. Oh. It was awful. Good thing he's cute ;)
Uncle Davey! |
He's MINE!! |
So, this weekend marked four weeks with us? I'm losing track--wow 5 weeks. Sheesh. So as I mentioned, he's such a big boy. My little fur ball puppy is gone. Now we have a sweet, rambunctious, little fur ball to contend with.
Snazzy! |
