Then and Now

I enjoy looking back a couple of months to see how much Dembre has grown. I'm amazed that 3 months ago I picked up a cute, furry fluff ball and now he is a much more mature 5 month old puppy. (The first picture shows him the day I picked him up, the next one I took for his 4 month photo shoot 4 days ago.)

Four for Four

Dembre is turning four months!

1. Dembre is learning more every day. He is working on about 15 commands presently. "Speak" is the only one that he isn't doing to well in.

2. Only one month until Dembre gets to go out in public. He will also get his official CCI vest. That ought to be interesting. He's excellent on leash and gentle leader though and overall pretty calm. (I need to practice commands a lot in this next month.

3. Dembre has entered is independence stage and is driving me kind of insane. (Yes, I do love that puppy, but this is always my least favorite stage in a puppy's development)

4. He is almost completely housebroken and hasn't had an accident for two weeks and I'm starting to feel ready for going out in public

Then & Now

Dembre is 4 months in less than one week. WOW! He was 14lbs. when we got him exactly 2 months ago. Now he is 33lbs.. My little boy now knows these commands: Sit, Down, Shake, Let's go, Here, Kennel, Wait, and is learning: Visit, Up, Lap, Side, and Heel. How can it be that my little boy is growing up? Here are two pictures. (The first is from 2 months ago, the second was taken today)
