Progress Report



Here is a quick update on our newest member of the family. His name is Gunnar and he is officially 10 weeks old and about 25lbs right now. He is coming along very well with his training and is a very well behaved dog for only 10 weeks old. He does like to chew on things like rocks, sticks, and feet. I would also say that he is getting to be a bit of a spoiled dog but if you can't spoil a puppy, who can you? He is very sociable dog, but he can play very rough.

It is my hope to have him tested for apptitude for the Schutzhund program. That is a tracking, obedience, and protection program for large dogs. Primarily, it is German Shepards, Rottweilers, and Dobermans that participate, but all sorts of dogs can be found in the program. Time, money and ability will tell if Gunnar gets to partake of the program. We are starting on some basic imprinting with basic commands and stuff. Nothing big yet.

As you can see, he is a very handsome fellow and will be quite large. As the weeks go by, I will try and update his progress. So, more to follow!

later!


oh.. his full name is Gunnar Valentin vonG.....
