Junior is now 8 1/2 weeks old and weighs 1 pound, 11 ounces. He's doing really well, eating good and wanting to play all the time. I've introduced him to a couple of my girls and he's excited to see them, but he comes back to my lap pretty quick, using it as home plate LOL. Darla still spends most of her time with him. He still nurses but is eating more than nursing.

As you can see from the pic, his color is breaking on his face and head. His back hasn't started breaking yet. He's still a squatty little boy, measuring 6 inches at the shoulder and 7 inches from base of neck to base of tail. Both ears are up when he alerts to something, but the left ear still tips a little most of the time.

I'll try to get some better pics of him soon. I may just take him outside as my camera does better with natural light.
I'm still so in love with this young man's head. Have you begun hard stacking him yet on the grooming table? Time to start playing show dog with him....just getting him use to your hands to put him in certain positions.

From the looks of him he's going to have a wonderful rich tri colored tan.
You don't want him to break on his back too young.....I prefer about 9 months of age.

Squatty? I don't think so 6 inches at 81/2 weeks of age.....nice size.....still looks leggy to me.


He's just beautiful Jim....
