Life with Penny

Penny and Steve were very fast friends. He is such a softy when it comes to her, but also better at knowing how to correct her than I am. But I am learning with his help!

Penny's first bath. She was a BAD puppy this day and had poop ALL over her and the kennel when Steve got home. He just sprays her off with the hose (he comes home in between work and appts), but I won't touch her until she gets a proper bath. She is not a huge fan, but we are trying to make it not too traumatizing so when she is 120lbs she isn't out of control!

Oh the cuddle bugs. She LOVES it when she gets to be cuddled like a baby. Steve is the WORST when it comes to picking her up to cuddle her and place her on his chest.

Such a weird sleeper. This is one of the most amusing positions.

Ok, on occasion I can't help cuddling with her too. She is just so darn cute!

Here is a little before and after action. She is 10 weeks in the picture above.

And just a week later at 11wks you can see she is GROWING like a weed! She won't be our "little" girl for much longer. I'm going to miss this little puppy size!

Anyhow, there is an update:) We think she is starting to make a small improvement when it comes to housebreaking, but we'll see how she does when we go back to work this week.
