Hugo looks great! How's he doing 1st week away from his litter mates? How was week 1?

Hugo looks great! How's he doing 1st week away from his litter mates? How was week 1?

Thanks for asking! He’s doing really well, I think. He’s met a lot of new people this week and is shy but not fearful. House training has been pretty good too—we are down to maybe 1 pee accident a day, always between 5:30 and 6:30 pm when my attention is flagging. Sleeping in his crate with me on the couch was working well—he basically slept from 11-7, but I can’t sleep on the couch forever! He obviously has never been alone, so that is really the biggest challenge right now. He is my little shadow! We already love him to pieces. He is so much fun, and pretty relaxed about everything.

Sounds great. 3 weeks more, and I'll be right there with you!

Week 2: learning to nap while my hooman is working:

But I do bring all my toys to the office:

I found a new place to nap:

But this is my favorite:

 

[a2girl]

12 weeks old and I am a big boy: 10.5 lbs. I’m tall too, but I dont like standing still to be measured. My Hoomans are exposing me to lots of things. This bubble wrap is a lot of fun!

My Mawm’s work is super boring.

And why does she want me to sit all the time?

I really just want to play in the yard with my favorite toy.

But sometimes I pose for my glamour shot.

 

[94Magna_Tom]

Hugo you are catching on to all this hooman stuff very quickly!
What harness model and size are you wearing? And does it fit well? I haven't picked one up yet for Elroy.

@94Magna_Tom, this is a PetSafe Easy Walk Harness that I got from Chewy, size Small/Petite. The Small was too large for him. This harness was recommended by my sister who’s a veterinarian (ophthalmologist).

This is the absolute cutest sleeping on the shelf?! How adorable

 

[a2girl]

I am 13 weeks old and I weigh 12.2 lbs. My mawm can still hold me. She looks tired...could it be the 5 am potty call?

I am waiting to make my move. I really like being on top of the table!

But Mawm, there was already a hole in this towel! I’m just making it better!

 

[Cindy12]

So sweet! What a lovely pup. Thank you for sharing! Someday I hope to have a red mini, so I especially appreciate all the pictures.

 

[a2girl]

I am 14 weeks old! Now if I could only get big enough to be able to jump up on my Mawm’s lap!

I also am starting to need a haircut BAD—pretty soon I‘ll be seeing everything through one eye!

I still like having all my toys around me, just in case the toy burglar comes by. As you can see, I am learning what it means to “settle down.” Life is good!

Hugo is gorgeous! Glad to see you finding joy in each other.

Thanks---he really is a joy. I think we got very lucky.

I'm loving all his toys! He's so loved and spoiled! Does he have a favorite? I'm thinking of buying some more toys for mine!
