Puppy is a menace and grows too fast! He's getting enormous compared to his sisters 😂 (which is a good thing cos bigger size = healthier back) He's very highly food-motivated and isn't scared of anything aside from water, which is yucky. If I take a shower he starts screaming, maybe he thinks it's raining inside and it's his biggest fear? He's growing in every direction except from the snout which is like the only job he really has, but he's still a baby and he grows different parts at different times so there's no need to worry for now.
Honestly though he's starting to be so much fun! The first weeks were really rough for me since he didn't know anything about anything, including his name, but now he knows a bunch of words that help the everyday life, where the most important is "go to sleep" 😂 it's a life-saver. It's fun playing and doing stuff with him and he's amazing to travel with, doesn't put up a hassle at all there. All in all looks like he's gonna grow into a good dog, someday...
here he is a week ago, waiting for food
here are the boys working on a stick at the cottage, very professional work, good collaborating
here he is after getting bowled over by Taatu and his friend on a field, and also mid-vid screenshot of him attempting to kill Taatu (no success, Taatu has the upper hand in this relationship)
Taatu has been the greatest here, he's fully accepted Kiivi into his space and they share toys and Taatu's bed with no problems. Taatu is so gentle and patient and careful when playing with Kiivi, there haven't been any issues and I can fully trust Taatu to keep the situation from escalating. Kiivi is a rough player with no limitations so it's good to have a mature, bigger dog to keep him in line gently but firmly.
All in all, keeps me busy but I'm very happy with this and as Kiivi grows, it's only gonna get better! ❤️
