Pups & Visitors...




The litter's official photographer :-), Rachel, took some great shots of the pups yesterday...link to all below

Last couple of days have been too busy to write...pups have had many many visitors over the last week! Their personalities have really started to show and so now a bit easier to start figuring out who may be right for whom.
They are really exploring and climbing, and love the tree stumps in the woods. They also all have learned to lie down, head pointing downhill at the top of driveway embankment and make pebbles and rocks move...so they can chase them. Moss & Lily were first, but as of this AM, they all are doing it...observational learning?
So far, all seem to love everybody they have met, some are longer to hang around, but as I would expect they are all busy exploring the outdoors or checking out new stuff. I would rather have pups, that hit the ground running, than sit and wait to be shown. It may encourage more independence, but they all have the confidence to navigate new environments-which is more important right now. Not seeing much over-reaction to noises like the helicopters that go over us or the sound of motorcycles going up the hill. Cedar was a little more sound aware, earlier in the week, but seems to have worked it through. Nothing seems to bother Aspen-he is a such a happy little soul! Moss & Lily are too busy to notice and Ash is still somewhere in the middle.
