Here is our newest puppy Serena. We got her from a breeder in Illinois and absolutely loved her at first sight. She's growing up so fast and already gained +10lbs in just 1 month! I thought I'd document her growth and share her progress as she grows up...
First day home, Serena @ 8 weeks:
Getting along with her sister (8 weeks) :
10 weeks old:
And today she's 12 weeks old! Those ears!
Tricks she's learned so far: potty bells (potty trained at 9 weeks, phew), sit, stay, lay down, leave it, head down, and shake
While I can't wait to watch her grow up, it also bittersweet.
Thanks everyone, glad to hear she looks healthy, at the doctor yesterday for her 16 week check up she weighed 30 lbs. Seemed a bit low for her, but we don't under feed her.
She's a beauty! Love the side by side photos of her growth! I have to learn how to do that. My first shepherd, Jack, never did quite grow into his ears, they were ginormous!
Our breeder we found on AKC.org from Illinois. They had a website posted which seems to be a new domain now and not sure if they will have any future litters --> but feel free to check it out here: All Around Gymnastics Website - Ziva and Tony's Pups Ziva and Tony have beautiful pups, I really recommend them!
Thank you! Hmm.. let me try to access my best memory here for weights..
at 8 weeks she was ~12? lbs
at 16 weeks she was ~30 lbs
at 25 weeks she was ~45 lbs
at 7 months she is now ~55 lbs
she's beautiful. i guess there's no awkward stage for serena. it's great to see the coat changes. as someone who has never owned a gsd, the puppy's growth between those crucial first few months is scary (in the best possible way)! :surprise:
She is adorable! Beautiful girl you have there! Thanks for posting the weights too - we get our little guy in 2 weeks and I am excited to see his progress as well. Congrats on your gorgeous girl!!!
** Hoping I am as lucky as you with the potty trained at 9 weeks! That would be wonderful! We will work hard at that from day one!
Serena is almost 1 year old (born 1/24/16)! She's been such a fun, smart, and crazy puppy... I'm almost not ready to watch the puppy days fade away! Here's a few progress photos of her since we haven't updated in quite a while.
Serena has turned into such a beautiful (almost) adult! She reminds me a lot of our girl, Vesper. Love the photos!
