Look at the lovely Max enjoying his local dog park! What a cracker!
Ted showing off his climbing skills… this was about teaching them to be more mobile and how to navigate the deck and backyard…
Milo in montage… you can see below in a series of still life portraits what appears to be love and adoration from man’s best friend…. However this beast was intently watching his master who was sat beside me… with a lump of pizza crust in his hands… as you make your way through the images, you can see the disappointment and eventual refocusing on me as that said piece of pizza crust was consumed by his human overlord… he’s now trying to breath on my leftovers 🤷🏼♀️. Image 4 has to be the one that speaks loudest to me…. The way he is able to convey his disdain in these few frames shows his true talent- worthy of an Oscar or BAFTA any day…. Milo, your talent knows no bounds 😂😂
Snack time
Getting the Old Band back together again…
Playtime With Apollo, Artemis & Diana
Post weights cuddle time!!! Tobias ended up nodding off as well! 😂 This is Diana- do we have any guesses on her weight today?
Feeding time at the zoo
All puppies are gaining weight like champions…
Probably has something to do with their focus at feeding time 😂
Anti gulp bowls were introduced to the boys tonight. Both boys are very food driven, and while it makes for a great training tool, bloat in a barrel chested dog is not something we want to see happen, or a gulping food routine develop.
Milo has this ball… it’s his favourite toy…
It plays back… Odin and Orion seem to like it as well
More noise exposure and exploration. This seems simple enough, but it poses both boys with problem solving while activities, when wanting to get a ball, and play with a brother while navigating a pathway out of the tent it supports neurological growth so that their brains can negotiate obstacles while performing an activity. Previously we have used the balls for beginning of retrieving and they were asked to retrieve down the tunnel.
Ball pit and fetching… Odin was th star with his tunnel retrieving
Today was helping catch up on some delinquent gardening…. After finding every hole, every blade of grass… every place they shouldn’t put themselves, they got a break and had some play time with Milo and Ceilidh. Both boys are now so dirty they will be needing a bath 😂
Training tonight was more exploring… Odin is getting quite adventurous in his exploring! We did more noise work, and had both Odin and Orion on the quad bike for feel it under them. Both boys did great!
