Puppy Update

Posted in: Dog, Photography

Noonan got her last shots today, we can now take her to the dog park, etc. Very cool. :)

The vet says that most dogs will grow to be twice the weight they are at 16 weeks. A mini-Aussie is normally between 15-25 pounds fully grown, but our pup was 14.4 pounds today (at 16 weeks, 3 days). I guess she was the biggest of her litter.

She’s learning well - we’ve got sit, lie down, shake, fetch and give pretty well covered. We’re still working on consistency with come here and stay. She’s also become very social and outgoing in most situations - she was running up to everyone at the vet’s office.

I need to take more photos - I’ve been too busy w/ work lately.

    What a cuddly looking ball of fur! Please keep us posted with photos as she grows. (you’ll just HAVE TO find the time, of course; further down the road, you’ll be very glad you did)!

    She is an awesome Blue Merle. May I ask what breeder you got her from? I am looking to get some new pups for my program.
    Thanks!
