4/21/2021 was Elroy's Gotcha day! He's 8 weeks old, plus a day! He made the 1 hour drive home, on my 85 y/o Dad's lap, without a hitch! Very cool, calm, and collected! I'm going to start this thread off with some pre-gotcha day photo's! The journey begins!

Elroy had his 1st playdate today. He and Buddy sniffed each other cautiously for about two minutes, and then became increasingly friendlier as time went on. They were best buddies by the time they tuckered each other out!

It does the heart good to watch a puppy play so hard he falls down (sec 8), then figure that while he's down he might as well get comfy (sec 9).

Elroy all tuckered out after his play date! He's 9 weeks old (yesterday) and sprawled out he's already taking up 28/29 inches and his head and feet aren't even stretched out!

Oh just you wait Tom, as soon as he can climb up on to your bed, you'll find he's as big as your mattress!

Love the picture of Elroy and the tulips. He seems very photogenic and that can be a challenge with a black.

Elroy's a natural in the garden! He wants to, and does, help with everything! Most of the follies aren't captured on camera.

And here's his designated digging area! There must be some truffles down there!

I know, I know. Not the best clicker timing. I think he was over threshold there!

Be still my heart. He snorts with his head underground the same way my Mia does. So glad to see you both having a blast.

And yes, it looks like both of you could use some training on training.
