But mummy I'm gorgeous

But can be a naughty little thing..............She's now decided that coming to the office is a good place to be very naughty, jump on mummy's desk, play with her keyboard, emptying the tissue box was great fun. So she will have to stay at home on the days we are both working.  She also seems to have realized that she can bark, which is quite funny as she's so small but tried to make a big scary noise.

Took a lovely photo of her this evening, she now 13 weeks old.

Puppy Classes

Tonight we went to our first puppy class, poor sophie was the tiniest dog there and the youngest. She spent most of the time hiding under my chair, huddled in her jumper. I don't think the teacher really appreciates just how tiny and short haired IG's are, I got the impression that she just thought I was treating her like a little doll.

We did learn what's the best action to take when sophie starts to sink her teeth in to you.........scream very loudly at her!!!

So hopefully next week she will be a bit more excited to be there and less frightened around all the other much bigger dogs. Breeze the rottie looked like she thought sophie was a walking titbit (we'll stay on the other side of the room)

Homework is to practice our sit and down commands

A new Year

We've had a eventful few weeks with sophie, she's been keeping us on our toes and now has discovered how to go upstairs, which is lovely until she leaps on you first thing in the morning and covers you with licks and nibbles. She's also discovered the fish tank and spends a lot of the time trying to eat them.

Things aren't so great with Poppy who is too nice to really growl at Sophie when she doesn't want to be bitten or have her tail played with, hopefully Sophie will learn with Poppy doesn't really need to be nipped all the time.

She'd  now allowed out for walks but hates the cold and finding a coat for her has been quite difficult because she's still quite tiny(now weighs 2.3Kg). It was quite sunny today so we went for a walk around Lily Hill Park which she really enjoyed, no dragging needed!

Toilet training is going very well and she goes almost 100% in her crate which is lined with paper, I think eventually she will have a litter tray in the kitchen as she really hates going outside but hopefully when she's bigger going outside will be easier.

Been able to take some lovely photo's of her, these are some of my favourites.
