Rogan is 16 weeks old today :birthday: lol
At the vet (9 days ago) he weighed 16lbs 4oz. He's about 16 inches tall, but it's hard to get an accurate measurement on a moving target!
I haven't posted pics in a while so here are some I took a today.

I can't believe how much I love this little guy! He's so sweet and so much fun!! He's learning everything so fast and growing like a weed!! I'm much more relaxed with him around the kids now, I don't even have to worry about him nipping anymore unless he gets excited and carried away. He does go in his crate when I can't watch him but not nearly as much as he used to. He's getting more and more free time every day! This weekend he actually barked at the door a couple times to be let out for a pee! :cheer2: I was impressed!! Lets hope it's a new trend!
I had him groomed a few weeks ago and I got her to take off some of the puppy fluff. His body looked so round and big and his head looked so small! I love the cut, and I love the groomer I'm using! You can see his body shape so much better now I just love it! She only took off about an inch on the body, and left everything else with the exception of some shaping on his butt and cleaned up his sanitary areas. Of course she touched up his face feet and tail which I had already done. He's now due for another face, feet and tail trim, man that hair grows fast! I think I like his face better after 3-4 days worth of growth anyway, but this is a bit past that! ... might have to fire up the clippers tonight!! :dance:
Anyway, didn't mean to write a book here! thanks for looking!! enjoy!

Awwww, he continues to be a lovebug! I really like how his full tail looks - I've seen some poodles where the full tail looks a little too curled, but his looks great.

As does Vinnie's. The poodles on this forum are rocking the full tail!

Happy 16 week birthday, Rogan!! I'm expecting his 1/2 sister here in about a week (she and her siblings are 7 weeks old now) and I am seriously having excited butterflies in my stomach! I can't seem to stop thinking about her for a minute and I can't wait until she's here and becomes part of our pack! Keep providing pictures of Rogan - he's so handsome!!

Aww! He's so beautiful, I love his color. I agree, he really is rocking that full tail. I'm usually not a fan of the long tail on poodles but it looks good on him.
He's got the cutest face, and he seems like such an innocent, fun, playful puppy! How adorable!!!
Keep the pictures coming, I love seeing little Rogan!

Love Rogan's beautiful eyes. So expressive. My favorite pic is #1, but they're all so cute. Pretty body as well. Happy Birthday, Rogan!

He's beautiful. I think pic #9 is my fave, but they're all great shots.

Thanks everyone!! Rogan's pretty photogenic...

but I have to admit, with all the amazing photography posted on this site, it makes one hesitate slightly before posting pics taken with a point and shoot camera!! The Canon Rebel SLR is on my wish list for Santa :santaclaus: Regardless, until then, I will continue to do my best with what I've got! I've also been tempted to book him in for a photo shoot somewhere, so we'll see about that! Maybe for his 6 month birthday!

They do grow so fast! While I wanted to see Lorelei "grow up" I get a little sad when I think about how the puppy stage seemed to just fly by. At almost 11 months I guess she's in the teen stage now and her personality is really starting to develop but I do miss the days when I could scoop her up in my arms and cuddle her. Get your fill of that kind of thing while he's still small enough because they shoot up so fast.

hi Sara!
I know, they grow way too fast!

although I can't wait to see how he'll turn out all full grown and glorious, I will miss the puppy stage dearly! I wish they could stay puppies just a wee bit longer! I love the puppy fur too, I'm SO not looking forward to the coat change, everyone's been telling me his hair will basically mat overnight! I'm so afraid of that!!! Partially why we trimmed him now... anyway... I'll just enjoy every minute of his puppy-hood like you said!!! :flowers:
