Look how cute she is! She’s 10 weeks old today, and that picture was taken a few weeks ago. She has grown so much and is starting to lose her puppy fur and her adult coat is coming through!
We took her to a puppy party the other night. It’s basically a chance for puppies to get used to socialising with other dogs their own size and they play with each other. Frankie was a little minx, she pinned down an Alsatian puppy!!
It just so happened though that two of her cousins were there. The breeder we got her from had two litters, one a week younger than Frankie, and two people that were there on Tuesday had a puppy each from that younger litter. I think they all recognised each other, coz they were playing together the most. It was so sweet!
We’ll be able to take her out for walks soon. It’ll be great when we can do that. She doesn’t really have a middle ground. She’s either on, or she’s off. And sometimes, she goes into second gear where she runs round like a mad woman, just running round as fast as she can! She’s mastered the stairs now as well. At first, she could only go up and not down, but now she can do both.
She’s learnt a trick. If she’s in the garden and she’s found something to play with, which she knows she shouldn’t have, she’ll lie there, chewing on it whilst looking at you with a cheeky look, and as soon as you get close enough to take it off her, she runs off! And she LOVES my slippers and trainers. This morning, she went up to my trainers, picked one of them up and went to her bed. So I took it off her. So she got up and went and fetched the other one instead! I think it’s coz they are the right size for her to pick up, hubby’s are just a bit too big.
She’s so good though, and she is learning quite quickly. I can tell her to sit while she’s eating, and she’ll just stop eating and sit.
So yes, I’m settling into motherhood quite well.


your pup is soooooooo cute
OMG I absolutly LOVE those pictures! They are sooo great. And you better lock her up, she’s so cute I might have to come steal her. lol. Just messing. But I do want one just like her. Awwww….
Aw, look how sweet she is.
I remember when I first had my puppy, we could walk her up the block but we’d have to carry her home because she’d already be all tuckered out.
She is sooo cute!! I want a puppy. I wish they always stayed puppies. That’s my problem. We have a dog, but she’s big and stinky. I want a sweet little baby dog.
Wow, you were right about her being cute. She is a beautiful dog. I just took my dog a couple of days ago to for a hair cut. This heat just kills a husky. Frankie is a chocolate lab? I hope she will always be a good friend to you.
Too cute! What type of doggie is this?
She is in fact a chocolate labrador. She is getting bigger every day! But we can take her out for walks next week!!
She is soooo adorable. She actually looks a bit like my Wrigley, except Wrig has some pit (staffordshire terrier) mixed in, so she’s broader in the shoulders and more stocky. Frankie’s coloring though is very dark like hers.
