Feebs posing again.
Feebs and Beau... he's keeping his distance
~ She is adjusting well in her new home. Her Pheasant is her favorite
toy. Good Girl! Beau is feeling a bit left out so he needs extra
attention. We are not sleeping well at night though. She's a pee
machine!
8 weeks
Feebs playing in the snow, New Years
Eve 2008
Bugging Beau, He's getting better
with her.
Running and jumping.... she loves
it.
What!
A quick pose for mom.
Tough day I guess,
Too funny
~ She is getting bigger and
stronger. Needs to go to the vet next week. Beau is getting better.
She still tends to bug him but he is warming up to her more. She LOVES
the snow! Sleeping much better at night now. Doing great on a leash but
is still a major pee machine. This may take a while.
First Hunting Trip
01/03/2009
Feebs sniffing her first fresh kill.
She is now getting ready for her big
pose.
She likes it so much she tried
dragging the thing away.
Aaaand there it is!
Still trying to drag it. It's bigger
then she is.
Forget a pose here. Too many
sniffs........
~ Well I have to say she
did pretty good for 8 weeks. We had been playing a bit during the
week with a pheasant wing to "get the sniff on" and apparently she
didn't really need it. She went right for it and didn't want to let go.
Let the training begin...
~
Great vet visit on the 6th. ~
She took her shots like a trouper, is healthy and weighs 11lbs. Next visit is 01/21
9 1/2 Weeks
Here she is, crazy as ever bugging a
very patient Beau.
Playing in the snow. She LOVES
the snow!
A perfect pose.
Feebs loves the camera. It's hard to
get a good shot.
She is getting tall now! Working on
"Come".
"Sit" command is very good.
~ She is growing too
fast and getting bolder. Nips and talks back. But still a lot of fun.
Working on the "come" command and then the "heel" command. There are way
too many distractions in this house so taking her into another room is a
must do. She does well alone. She is also a "digger". Rut Ro! But she is
sleeping all night and doing a bit better potty training.
Puppy fun is almost over Feebs. Time to get
to work young lady!
11 weeks
A moment of peace and quiet. Ahhhh....
Feebs finally got Beau to play tug of
war!!
Chewing a hole in her squeaky toy.
Feebs is winning!!!
~She
comes when called very well now. The nipping is pretty much under
control. I do have to say that she is a fast learner. Only a few
sessions and she has most things down.
~Vet update 01/21 (11 weeks)~
Another great visit. 16 1/2 lbs. 14" tall at her hind end.
We will check this again in a few weeks.
12 & 13 weeks
Feebs "COME"
Look Pretty
WAIT FOR IT!
Still posing
STAY
Look how big she's getting!
~ Feebs has had a little
set back with some of her commands. Mostly "Come". Mom has been pretty
sick so I couldn't work with her very much and now she needs to start
over with some stuff. Her potty training still needs work. She
definitely has a mind of her own but I think she will pick it all up
again fast.
We can't wait for the warm weather to kick in so we can go outside and
work!!
With all the snow and ice it is VERY hard to train her to walk and heel
properly on the leash and to get her to come when called outside.
Vet visit is 02/10
Great visit. Gained 5 pounds. 21.6 lbs
15 Weeks
Chow Hound
BIG GIRL!!!!
Loves her carrots
Huh?
Her front Pose ((ham))
Sniff....
Her side pose
~
Another A.O.K. Vet visit last week. 21.6 lbs.
Growing like a weed. Eats like she will never see food again. So far I
have not found anything she does NOT like. Learning fast. Nipping is
under control and she catches and retrieves like a real dog now. Very
verbal and runs, runs, runs!! Still a pee machine. She just doesn't care
to "get" that. Any ideas??
let me know....We
have tried everything.
19 Weeks
Feebs attacking Beau in the back yard.
She is getting beautiful features now.
Feebs and Beau playing in the back
yard.
Watching Beau play. Keeping an eye on
him!
Looking for birds??
20" tall at her back end now.
She likes the camera... when she will
sit still.
Vet visit went well. She
gained another 11 lbs. now 32.6lbs. Prediction is 100lbs in 4 more
month. We'll see. Being the chow hound that she is, I wouldn't doubt it.
She is going hunting this weekend so stay tuned for more pics. She
hasn't had any hunting training yet because of the weather but now it's
getting nice out so it should start soon. We'll see how well she does
this weekend with her instincts.
Hunt 03/21/09
Sniffing out birds... we're hoping.
Finding the bird.
She was having a ball.
Get that bird!
Following Beau.
Bring it here!!!
Oh no, a stream!
TA DA!!
Comes when she's called. Good Girl!!
She did great. I'm not sure if
she really knew what she was doing there but as the day went on she got
better and better. She stayed right with me and came when she was
called. She had tons of fun and so did we so that made it a great day
all around! Good Girl Feebs!
27 Weeks

Turn around ma..I gotta pee.
