More snow!
Today we have more snow. Two snows by December 2, rather unusual for eastern PA. Truffle loves it. Almost impossible to get pictures, she is tearing around like a banshee. I am stumbling along in the snow after her, a day late and a dollar short. The second picture is blurry but it gives the effect.
Yesterday (10.5 weeks) we took Truffle to play with Bridget, a Border Terrier puppy about a week older than she is. They spent an hour playing wildly, escalating a few times into snarling matches when we had to take them apart for a cooling-off period. I think it was like kids whose play can flare up into hitting and arguments at times. Both of the puppies are fierce, fast and feisty.
The weather this past week was mostly pleasant. Truffle weighed 9 lbs. 10 oz. on her 10-week anniversary. She is on a varied diet with Natural Balance kibble, raw chicken parts, eggs, leftover turkey and other good stuff. We are starting to work on Sit and Down and Come, with clicker and treats (such as the first half of her meal), and she is actually learning very fast.
Shadow is her buddy, they wander around outside together. He plays a little. If she thinks he's getting rough (which he really doesn't) she goes under the deck where he can't fit.
Micah and Adrienne visited for Thanksgiving, and I didn't focus on taking pictures, I need to get some from Michael and Allison, I think they took more. But Micah and Truffle had lots of fun time together.
