1. Pick a breed known to enjoy the company of humans (like the Havanese).
2. Socialize, socialize, socialize.
Guess what we did Saturday?
Liam is very gentle with Sammy
Luke and Filer with Mom Lesley

Puppies everywhere!!!
We went to have our ears tested today–
It is called the Baer Hearing Test.
Very high-tech!
You can check out the video
on the left of this page too!
Here is Rapper checking out the equipment!
Sammy wired and ready to go!
The microphone being held to Dee Dee’s right ear
Katie was such a sweetheart!
Phoebe getting wired
Phoebe is almost finished
Best news of all…….They are using the piddle pad!!!!
These are the puppies we have left. Katie (sitting), Rapper and Sammy (sleepover) and Go Go.
Michigan has put on its finest summer weather this week and the puppies are loving it!
Of course there is always the required amount of socializing!
…when the puppies are on their own. Phoebe has been a great mother but I have been working diligently at weaning the puppies. They enjoy their Wellness Puppy Kibble now, soaked overnight in water and served up with some goat’s milk. MMmmmmmm.
This also means Phoebe is finished with clean up so my workload has significantly increased. If I could get right to it rather than playing with them each time I lean over their pen I could get back to my day job. Wait! This IS my day job. Love it!
Finally got some photos. They weren’t what I’d hoped for but I will try again next Friday and work with them on their ‘stand’ command which right now goes in one ear and out the other! Enjoy.
