I didn't post anything for awhile because we got sad news. The creme baby we had purchased died at the age of 3 weeks. She was smothered by the mother accidentally while nursing! This has been several weeks ago and it was very sad, but we were left with options!
The good news is....without that happening, we could not have gotten our sweet little Penny. Penny is short for Penelope! We are calling her Penny Penelope, but it was suppose to just be Penelope and call her Penny for short! Did I confuse ya?
Penny was 3 weeks older than the previous pup we were due to get. Sadly, Penny's breeder died suddenly and was one of many puppies that needed to be placed by the original breeder I had purchased from.
Penny is not only older than the original puppy we were due to get, but....she is bigger! MUCH bigger. She arrived on April 5th and weighed in at 11.5 pounds! WOW! 1 week later, she weighed 13.5 pounds! That's 2 pounds in a WEEK! A WEEK! Oh boy!
Penny is sweet and lovable, but a little nippy at the moment. We are working on that part of training. We are working on "sit" "shake" and "down"! She has begun clicker training with these commands and is doing great!
The housebreaking....well, lets just remind ourselves she is only 9 weeks old! LOL We'll get there!
Anyhow, pictures to be uploaded soon! Check back to see her and see her progress!
