A Full Day Dedicated To Play!
A little laundry, food for them and for myself but other than that, just play. No worrying about getting specific pups photographed. No appointments or errands. Just went with the flow. Started the morning off with our basic fair weather routine... breakfast on the deck followed by a rest while I tidied the indoor habitat. They looked so cute out there on their bed. I attempted a photo while sleeping but as soon as I opened the door they quickly awakened and within seconds were rearing to go. Black was in the attached dog house alone and Pink at the far end of the run alone. Guess the two don't like to be disturbed during slumber.
After breakfast and a snooze, I put the big dogs in their runs... and it was all about the pups. All rested up, their stamina was surprising. They're getting stronger and with increased zest for life with each passing day. Their interest in toys is also increasing and it seems the most favored is a simple rope toy. All in all it was a fabulous day... They've grown to my favorite age and as always have grown on me. I'm going to miss the little buggers but on the other hand I get great enjoyment out of watching them continue to grow and thrive in their new environments with people that adore them. There will be challenges and times you'll be upset with them but before being too harsh on them, ask yourself how you can do better by them. Dobermans really do aim to please but they themselves have needs. If those needs are satisfied, they're a pretty easy keep. Questions or concerns are always welcome and I'll always be here for support. Better to ask early on if you're having an issue rather than wait until the issue becomes a monster. My request to each of you -that you reminder I care and appreciate updates. Goofy photos, gorgeous photos... frequent photos and updates. As it turns out the FB litter pages are wonderful avenues for that purpose. They're also another avenue of support and encouragement. As I said, there will be challenges but it's kind of nice to know there are others facing the same one.
And now it's Christmas... so I better get to bed. Our milk and cookies are set and the mice at bay... Want to make sure not a creature is stirring when that Jolly old man in the fancy flying sleigh with all those glorious reindeer head our way!
Merry Christmas! More To Come........
