Realtime puppy

I am really trying to imbibe every precious moment right now, since I know that before you blink, the puppy has grown up into a big dog. She has been here for almost 3 weeks and already so much has happened. When she came she weighed 3,2 kg and now she is up on 4,7! When she arrived she was a baby, timid and seemingly fragile, and the first few days we lifted her out into the garden to pee and poo. She could neither walk on a leash.

Now she joins for every trip with Barak, and she walks nicely on the leash. She runs and plays like crazy and we have even brought her on a few longer walks (1-2 km) in the fields and she never gives up and whines. She also sleeps less. The first week she took long, regular naps all along the day, but now she stays alert all day except for a few shorter naps. This also means that she demands a lot more stimulation, and she also gets it. I am continuing with the obedience work and she is now started on the "heal", both sitting and walking. She is doing great! We have also started to work more in various environments. She has also learned what the clicker is all about, and it took me only one session to teach her to get up on the scale and sit down on it. Teaching tricks through shaping is sooooo fun and rewarding for both handler and dog and I am looking forward to teaching her loads of tricks with it.
