Busy Busy Time and Puppies!
I know everyone has been eager to catch up on their puppies and I apologize for getting behind, things got crazy busy and I was having trouble keeping up and I am afraid the journal is one of the first things to slide. My knee has really slowed me down though it is getting better. They have me in a walking brace, I can put weight on it but I cannot kneel on it. Monday I was hoping to catch up and each of the puppies got their turn at a Grooming Session, brushed, trimmed, and nails cut! They all were very good! By late afternoon I was hit with a tummy bug, *bluck*! So, that set me back a couple of days! I wanted to take pictures on Wednesday but all my batteries were drained! *Yikes*
So yesterday, I managed to get some pictures of the puppies out on our almost daily walks around the yard. My son had a massive homework assignment yesterday and took over my computer until way past my bedtime! But I finally got the pictures downloaded and ready for posting!
These are of the puppies out on our walk, they are messy from sticking their little noses in anything and everything, and they are not as pretty as they were on Monday! I’ve introduced them to the back trail through the woods and boy do they have a great time racing up and down the trail and exploring under all the bushes, this is the highlight of their day! They also love to go down and race around the orchard! We have been really spoiled by all this nice weather so we have been going on our walks almost every day.
The puppies are doing great with their training. In addition to their wild jaunts in the yard, I take them out for walks on their leash and they are learning to walk nicely and pay attention to me. They have their sits down pretty pat, and we are working on them going down without the lure. They have learned to “Shake” which I like to work on as it gets them use to their paws being held and handled. We work on them going over to their tummy and some are learning to Roll Over. We continue with their manners and socialization the hardest being not to jump up! They just love everyone they meet they can’t help themselves, but we keep working on it!
I feel like I have a little Kindergarten class as we have a day filled with naps, snacks, lessons, and recess! Busy days for us all!
Here are the puppy pictures, a couple are blurry because they are running but I thought I would still share them as I thought they showed how much fun they have racing around and running full out! The darker ones are taken on our trail out in the woods and the lighter ones are down in the orchard.
That’s Roanna’s Blue Boy, Jasper getting Red Boy, Dugan!
