Hi Fredericka and George,
Well it has taken me awhile to send off a photo
of our pup born 2/20/07 by Brego out of
Rachael. His name has changed a few times --
now we call him Baloo. Baloo was at the
vet at eight months and weighed 120 lbs. We
have learned to always clear the counters now
of food -- he is very resourceful and very
neat. He finished off a pot roast with all the trimmings
and a pizza or two. The thing that is so
amazing is that although the food was gone, the dishes
were exactly where we left them on the
counter -- licked clean - not broken or on the floor. And
no crumbs in sight. Baloo is a very polite
diner! He loves everyone -- especially the mailman who
gives him special treats.
We are working him now in a beautiful harness and will
eventually train
him to pull a wagon or small cart. He loves
his harness and knows immediately when we put it
on that it's "training time." He never pulls
on the lead. Baloo graduated from puppy class and
beginning obedience. He was never a "bully" in
class and learned quickly.
We are now also training Baloo to "dance." He is getting the hang
of it and is following my lead very well.
His favorite song so far is "King Of The Road"
-- very fitting, I think. Baloo loves his rawhide bones --
so much so that he buries them all over the
house! We are always buying more because he
can't find the ones he has buried. He is very
entertaining.
My 21 year old daughter loves to take Baloo
downtown and walk him around. She tells me that Baloo is a "guy
magnet."
He gets the attention of everyone who sees
him. I enjoyed seeing the pictures of "Nelson", Baloo's full
brother.
They look a lot alike. Thanks for providing
such a wonderful web page of pictures. It is wonderful to be able
to visit all of your beautiful dogs.
Hope All Is Well,
Susy S.
PS = Picture was taken at six months of age.
