So we have moved out to the farm last weekend - hence the radio silence. I am absolutely beat. The pups are loving the space but have decided that when the roosters crow next door and the sun is up - it is time to wake Mommy up. 6:30 am and I don't see eye to eye. But making the best of it - we have been heading out to the lake every morning and having a blast.
After the lake we come home for a nap - usually them and sometimes I get an extra wink of sleep in as well. They are coming to work with me individually now so I can continue their socialization and work on training when I can spare a minute.
Truth be told - I am insanely jealous of Ariel's time with Karma, Javi and Sparkle. I feel like I am running from one task to another and haven't had any time with my babies. I haven't sat down to do a proper session in almost two weeks!
Work is busy and the pups get to come to class with me but of course I need to focus on my clients so I have been sneaking in a few minutes when I can and crashing out not long after I get home at night. It is a bit of an adjustment to get used to getting up that early - but they are persistent little buggers and needing to potty comes first.
Anyway - we have been cruising right along at work - they are getting really great at riding in the car...
Jinx in particular is changing her body shape more and more everyday. She is looking a bit like a catahoula pup so maybe there is some in Dad?
Examples of catahoulas:
It will be interesting to see what she turns out like. Juni meanwhile is developing some lovely tan in her coat - much more than could be seen before - she is such a striking pup!
And Jettie - he is my sweet little cuddle bug - weighs a ton now but still wants to be held. He and Tracy fell asleep on the ride home last night - aren't they cute!
Don't worry he is not as big as he seems there, I was not moving when I took the picture and he is not normally allowed to ride up front.
I think he is going to look something like this:
They are growing so fast: 13 week weigh in [this Tuesday]
Jinx - 21.2lbs
Jett - 21.4lbs
Juni - 18.6lbs
20lbs at 13 weeks - they are going to be monsters!
Well my time is up - have to head out in about 20 minutes and need to do another potty run before work...miss you guys...hope to catch up soon!
