 Need to get a better pic but can't wait to see how he fills out this bed as he grows! I love him as a little guy but I'm so excited to watch him grow and see his color changes... He doesn't have a whole lot of color on him for his age so will be interesting to see if that changes. Both if his ears are flopping over now like a lab, one was standing up when I got him, lol!

Wow.. how many channels does Gunther get?
 Reminds me of my last boy, LOL! Draven is getting BIG!  Carriesue... you'll be amazed at how fast he grows! He's such a cutie!! My plushie had to have her ears glued. Sometimes the heavier ears need a little help, but hopefully your little boy won't have a problem!

Grr Ollie is such a finicky eater! He doesn't like dog cookies either. My other dogs eat like its their last meal but not mister fluffy baby pants. I hope he outgrows this, LOL.
We also took him on another socialization trip today, he met two little girls that went nuts over him and he was all wagging tail and licking faces. He's not quite as into strangers as my golden, he'll only really get into it if the golden is giving and getting attention from people, lol. Like at one pet store a clerk came up and greeted Ollie, he sniffed her and then turned around and ignored her but as soon as the golden went over to meet her Ollie was all over her too. Silly pups!

Wow... a lot of these guys are WAY heavier than what Grim is!! He was light when he came, but he's been putting on tons of weight quickly, he just stays very very lean. No, it's not a medical thing, I think it's the food I have him on that's supposed to slow his growth through puppyhood.
Anyway... I've been carrying him down our back deck steps since I got him. They are steep, and I'm worried about him falling. Well, I have a bad back that's held together with metal rods and screws, and other parts that are bad in my back that aren't held together by anything. Now he's not such a little lamb... his last weight was 35.5 lbs and I'm sure he's now closer to 40. I just can't keep carrying him down the steps, especially when I first wake up and haven't had my pain meds yet!!  I know he trusts me, he will do anything I ask of him whether he feels 100% comfortable or not with it. So today I tested that and started down the deck stairs without picking him up. I told him "let's go" and stayed just a few steps down from him so that if he did start to go I could catch him. He got all the way down! He's been coming up on his own for many weeks. I used to keep a hand on him, but one day he stopped mid step and looked back at me and nipped at my hand "I got this now, OK?" He's a very independent boy, but given the way these steps are in the back (open back, open railing) I really didn't know if he could do it. He tends to be a 'wall hugger' when going down stairs inside. The last 2 times we went to my MIL's house, I made him go down her few steps out front which are kind of slippery (they are plastic type stairs) and there's no 'wall' to hug. He did OK there. I am just SO glad at the thought of not having to carry him down anymore!!  We have less than a week left in this house and then the problem will be solved anyway, but I felt bad that I hadn't given him a chance again to tackle the back steps. Not an easy feat for a pup. Especially not a pup that's just gaining some good coordination finally!
