    I finally figured out how to upload some photos of Thor, nearly 11 weeks now and im amazed at how quickly he has settled into our routine. The crate training has gone really well, he now goes in there while we cook dinner and will walk in when we have to go out. Toilet training was great for the first week but has been hit and miss since weve been back at work which is understandable. Overall though i cant believe how lovely he is. It feels like weve had him for so much longer than two weeks, and its like he is growing in front of our eyes :)

    Oh i did just remember a question i had. Whenever we put his collar on for when we take him out of the house he itches like mad and wont stop scratching it with his foot. Does anyone know how we can encourage him to leave it on? My previous dogs have worn them 24/7 but either way he will definately need to wear it when he can finally go on a walk.

    What lovely puppy-pictures. It sounds as if he's doing really well with his crate.

    Lovely puppy! With regards to the collar, he'll just get used to it in time. Willow used to fuss at her collar a bit. I'd distract her. It can help to put it on at other times, too, such as meal times, for training in the house, playing in the house etc. I don't like to leave the collars on all day, as it messes up their hair and, more importantly, they could get caught on something (especially when a puppy).

    What a cutie pie. I like your last one best too, little monkey. :)

    If you haven't already started, can I suggest you do monthly, maybe even weekly, photos of him in the same spot as a growth record? You will get a kick out of looking back at them. So will we, please. :) Maybe on his bright purple bed?

    Beautiful just beautiful! Bailey was the same with his first collar and they do get used to it. Bailey now wears his all the while and when we take it off he rushes to the bathroom for his favourite pastime - shower time!!!

    They certainly can! I don't usually take their collars off, as Tuppy becomes really agitated when I try to put hers back on. However, earlier this week I was putting some breakfast dishes in the dishwasher, both dogs came to do their 'pre-wash' bit and I told them to leave it, as usual. Tuppy stepped back... attached to the bottom drawer of the dishwasher. She immediately panicked, took off out of the kitchen and up the stairs with the drawer bumping along with her. It finally became detached part way up the stairs.

    I was so relieved when she came along the landing towards me unscathed, as I was certain she would have hurt herself. While I was checking her over to make sure she was ok she quickly lifted her head up to lick me and clonked me under the chin and I bit my cheek!

    Interestingly, neither dog now seems particularly interested in the dishwasher!

    What a cutie! I'd say the last pic captures a lot of his character ;)

    That's exactly what I did, once I knew she was ok. The drawer-mending is still work in progress, though! Luckily it was empty! :)

    Thor is adoreable. I am biased towards reds. I love the last 'foxy' photo :heart:
