Sheltie Forum Pups Spring/Summer 2014

I was just wondering the other day about you. We have two blue little ladies on the tail end of the summer puppy frenzy, both not quite confirmed but kinda getting there. I think yours is the youngest of the summer 2014 batch though at only 4 weeks! Anyone out there waiting on one -2 months to 4 weeks right now? Not too late to jump in on the game!

Is Skye an option for a call name?

Welcome little sister! You know the moment you will see them you will ask one "Do you want to come live with me?" and it will be ALLLLL over.
 
Stardust is one of my favorite albums, I used to have it and would love it in a CD. But how about Skye, I see it was already suggested.
Isn't it to early to register the puppy?
 
Hey puppy parents . . . be sure to add your 2014 puppy (DOB anytime in 2014) to the thread entitled:

Who's Who -- the class of 2014 (here in Puppies 101)

Just copy and paste the whole list, add your little one in DOB order, and post.

It will be interesting to see who was first and set us all off and who is last . . . 2GoodDogs' 4 weeker? We still have a good few months to add to the list!
 
Question: Overnight, at 10 weeks, it seems Cubby's brain arrived. I posted my vid yesterday of the nutso barking dog. Last night he did an encore and was jumping back and forth over Mel, pulling her tail, and gone nutso.

I put him to bed and this morning he is way more alert, focused, calm, not biting, hardly chewing, ate & voided fine, even walked nicely on leash on my deck for the first time very perky but not the rearing bronco of the previous times. He is holding large pees and peeing when I take him out even though he had a couple accident opportunities. When I put him in the crate to do my AM chores he has always cried and this morning he just sat and watched me.

Did the brain fairy bring it overnight? He is not listless or lethargic, just like more mature overnight. Can that happen at 10 weeks? Should I be worried?

I would not worry. Zulu did the same thing. It was like a connection was completed in his brain. I was pulling my hair out with potty training, 3 accidents in one evening! Next day he woke up, and he got it. He now lets us know when he wants to go out, goes straight to his spot, and can hold it longer. This was about 3 weeks ago. Since then, only 2 accidents (both my fault). I still watch him like a hawk, and I am not ready to call him housebroken, but progress sure feels good! :yes:
 
Enzo is now almost 18 weeks old. He is 11.5" and about 7.5 lbs. He could probably stand to gain a little weight so we are going to up his food to about 1 cup.

Enzo is very growly (but doesn't bark much) and still loves to play. He has turned into a food hound, and now is the fastest eater of my 3! He is the star of his puppy class and is definitely a problem solver. My only complaint is that he is a total terror about having his nails trimmed!

He still loves to play with Bentley, and he and Lexi mostly ignore each other.
