The Little Red Caboose Has Pulled Into The Station!

We went on the Inside Passage cruise in 20012 to celebrate out 20th Anniversary - Loved it!

Ok - back to Cubby...have you decided what (if anything) to do with his ears? I braces & tipped Baker's today - not fun. They are so stinking tiny!
 
Husband, "grandma" and I have decided Cubby will be au naturale. If he is a prick, so be it, if he folds or flops so be it. Right now they are looking really good and they have never raised up at all, except when he is sleeping and one falls straight. Shakes head and he is good again. I like them folded but not enough to glue for a year. The only thing I do know is that he is FAST and balances great on the back of the couch. Agility classes will be in his future as soon as possible.

I hope Baker is doing OK. I am worried.
 
Baker is back to normal today - thanks for your concern. I was so worried yesterday - crying when I was forcing the fluids in him. (forcing gently) He was just so happy & energetic before this episode - I was floored. So thrilled to see my happy, wiggly, tiny little boy when I woke up this morning!

I'm going to be a mean mom & try to keep his ears nicely spaced & tipped. I know it's going to be a real pain, but I guess it's just my preference. You may get lucky with little Cubby since his ears are, um, well, a bit large? lol - The weight may keep them tipped for you.
 
I was told that Dad's ears were weighted with gum for a little while and stayed tipped. Mom is as upright as they come.

They are large and wide apart but we will see.
 
A brief break in work yielded this . . . future agility star and couch potato. 9.5 weeks now.

I LOVE CUBBY! He looks like a laid back fellow.

I never did anything with Emmy's ears, although I did consider it a few times. Her's went up and down and up and down. One day they'd be prick, then floppy, then perfectly tipped, and then one would be up, and then the other, and so on and so forth. :eek2: They were different every day!
 
Cubby is soooooo precious :) I need to post some new pics of jade!! She is 15 weeks on Thursday and weighs maybe 8.5-9 pounds. She will be a little girl!!
 
Thanks for the encouragement from "the family". I hope they stay tipped, but not enough to glue them. I am actually more disturbed by the big black comma-shaped spot on his tail. It is just strange.
 
He had this giant comma on his tail. Not sure where it is going to land when he grows up but it is quite dramatic.

A lot of sables will have a black spot or band on their tails as puppies. It won't look so strange when he gets his adult coat, promise!
