Hoshi & Hawk – Which puppy is right for...

We met the puppies again on Sunday, and there was an interesting change of events. After playing with all the puppies we realized that the female, Hoshi, might not be the right dog for us. She doesn’t seem very focused on people, and is a little too independent for my liking. We ended up bonding with Hawk, one of the males. He is extremely friendly, playful, and was very focused on us the whole time.

I noticed that Hawk had some eye leakage, and she said that the vet is treating it with antibiotic eye drops and is probably due to the puppy environment. Should clear up in a few days.

We are going over to play with them again this Sunday, and we bring one home next Saturday! It seemed like it was taking forever, but the last few weeks flew by.

My Puppy Just Wants a Hand

Here is Rio at 6 weeks! We get to visit her again this weekend and hopefully spend a little more time with her than last week.

Our Puppy at 5 Weeks

Only 3 more weeks till we pick her up! I am pretty sure Rio is going to be a large dog, she is already a full pound bigger than her brothers. I have always been a big fan of red colorings, and it looks like there is a lot of shades of red coming in on her face already. It is still too hard to tell at this age. Here are some pics of the litter at 5 weeks:

My Puppy’s First Video

Here is a very short and low quality, yet cute video of Rio at 4 weeks.

Our Puppy at 4 Weeks

I  met our puppy for the first time yesterday! This is the first time I have been around a 4 week old, and boy are they cute. I was the first person to meet the puppies besides the breeder, and it was also the first time they have been out of their whelping area.They seemed a little confused at first, but they warmed up pretty quickly.

Rio seems very energetic and inquisitive, she was the last of the pups to tire out and she fell asleep in my lap which I hope is a good sign Here are two picture for now, I took a few and some short video which I will be posting tomorrow.
