    He's really cute. Any idea how tall he is at the shoulder? You can measure by standing a yardstick up and then placing a ruler across the highest point of his shoulders, across his back. Remy and Meadow are only days apart in age, Meadow is 15 inches and about 17.5 lb, so Remy is much larger! Just monitor his food intake, keeping him on the lean side will be much healthier for him and his joints in the long run.

    Fillion and Benson both make quick work of chews. Fillion is notorious for sword swallowing, so when Sandy recommended the Bully Buddies, I had to try. I just got this account and this picture is my first try so I hope the link works!
    Here they are, laying right next to each other chewing happily away.

    BIG boy!!! I think we got the medium for both Brodie and Kooper - I can post a live pic of it with him tomorrow if you'd like. I put the 6 inch sticks in the bully buddy - all I want him to have at a time. He used to go through about 3 a week. Now 1 - 2 a week.

    Wow, Hanne that's BIG! Our breed standard here is 13 - 16 inches, so almost 22 inches is very large and he would not be able to be shown. I tend to like the big ones myself.

    Wow...that's a big Sheltie! Riley was 19" at shoulder and he always got mistaken for a Collie lol. My mom would love another big one, me I like Piper's size.

    Remy had a check up today and is 33lbs (born in January 2020). I tried to measure him at that shoulder thing but he wasn't sitting still. Best guestimate is 18 inches.

    Vet recommended eye drops to flush his eyes if they are red. If they're constantly red, it might be conjunctivitis (sp?) and he'll need a triple antibiotic. But I don't think he has an infection.

    WOW! He's a big guy - born same time as Meadow who is still about 15 inches and about 17.5 lb. We need an updated Remy photo for sure. We've told Meadow since she's a bit smaller than we expected her penance is to be picked up a lot and cuddled..... ;)
