Mr Chips was on duty this morning, keeping little Cleo company, but was annoyed that it was before his brekkie! (After all, Cleo had been fed! 🙀) Consequently, he is constantly asking to come out of the pen. He could easily jump out, but is asking for permission. 💕
He is so patient! Cleo starts investigating between his back legs to see if there might be any hidden ‘milk dispensers’..🤣 He doesn’t get cross, just gently side steps… but is ultimately forced to take refuge in the puppy kennel..! 😹
Such time wasters..😍

Chip did a baby sitting shift indoors this afternoon, and a fine job he did..! 😍 Very gentle and patient, and stuck it out for over half an hour…😳

Mimi the cheeky Ragdoll has managed to sneak a closer look at young Cleo, while Gem is napping..😴

Jessie (a Flossie pup from 2021) is here visiting today. I thought she was going to volunteer to take a shift with Cleo in the garden puppy pen, but after a moment’s thought, decided against it..🤣
Best to stay with the grown ups..! 😉

Third time lucky! Yay!
Gem did not hunt him out this time..so Cleo and Chip have had a lovely introductory romp together 😍

Poor Chip. He decides to show off his athletic ability - outside the pen - and entertain a captivated Cleo..😹

Tiger mother Gem says ‘no’ to Chip joining Cleo in the outdoor pen..must think he’s still too big..🤨

Fabulous update pics from one of our favourite farming families in Victoria.
Lucy their blue Merle girl, recently turned 6 (she is a Floss & Rory pup) and Beau the handsome black & white boy, is from Gem’s first litter in 2020.
The dogs are firm friends with the family toddler as you can see from the cutest video ever, of the family (in the grain harvester!) and toddler giving his biscuits directly to Lucy..!
😍😍

Cleo had another spin in the outdoor pen this evening. However, it’s not nearly so much fun on one’s own.. 😟
Gem isn’t keen for Tally to get in and play - neither is Tally for that matter..!
I may give Chip a turn in there tomorrow and see if he can play gently. 🤪

Yay! Next stage of toilet training underway..! Little Miss Cleo went out to the outdoor pen after lunch today, and first thing she wanted to do was a p**p! Yay! Mama Gem looks on approvingly! 😹
Cleo will be given every opportunity to toilet outdoors, which helps with her eventual understanding of where we DO want her to toilet..!

Looking at current position statements from organizations like AVSAB (American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior), who are the leaders on veterinary care and behavior, they are abundantly clear that the outdated belief of avoiding socialization until vaccines are completed has no place in current standards. This is relevant because in many cases this fear of strangers or a particular group of people, results from lack of socialization during this critical period and can have lifelong impacts into adulthood.

Warm day and Cleo was super keen to explore the garden..! She was off and running like a whirling dervish, with Mama Gem in hot pursuit. 😹 Chip was very keen to play but still too big and clumsy..!
All very hard to photograph..!

I think young Cleo is in lerve…❤️
‘Would you like to see my pink bits, you ever so handsome big boy..?!’ 😹
Mr Chips: ‘Yeeeess!’ 🤣

15/11/2024

It’s bitey face time again..! 🤣
I think Mama Gem enjoys it as much as baby Cleo..! 😉
Cleo is growing bigger by the minute!

Gem is so patient with baby Cleo. It’s time to settle down for bed. Toys have been taken out of the box, but Gem patiently engages in a game of bitey-face..😍

Lovely update pics received today from beautiful Miss Nellie, who turned 14 last month. She’s a Sweep and Rory girl.
Apparently she’s ‘still bossy and bright as a button…!’ 😍
