Hi all, Aspen is nearing 6 months and behavior seems to be changing. He is mischievous and I try to give him the attention/stimulation he needs but sometimes I feel like I am sub-par. What are some of the things your pups did around 6 months that surprised you?
At about six months Homer had the run of the house a bit more when we were at home. All was peaceful and quiet, I went upstairs to find a very large poop in the middle of the bedroom carpet. This happened twice then never again. Homer learnt how much fun it is to pinch my clothes while I'm getting dressed and run around the house, with me following, he still does this from time to time but without quite so much exuberance. He jumped up on us when we didn't stay on the path on walks through woodland. He was quite happy to go investigating, chasing squirrels but not the humans, they had to follow the path and walk nicely. One toe into the leafy undergrowth and he'd be on to us.
Most memorable moment: On a walk he zoomied off out of sight and I found him covered in a slurry of mud, horse, and fox poo, bounding between two people going for a walk
Doug ate a radiator he used it as a teether. Still got his tooth marks in it I doubt I'll ever paint over them. Moo just ate one bed. Rory ate my washing machine.d
When he was a youngster , Sam pulled all the buttons off the six settings for my oven , the timer , auto, clock etc , and ate them . They did appear a couple of days later, but I somehow didn't fancy washing them and re using !
Mollies first Christmas.... OH spent several hours boiling & roasting our Christmas Ham (bit of a family tradition) to be consumed Boxing Day. Mollie decided that whilst Daddy day care (not paying attention) had the fridge door open she would grab the said ham & within seconds it had vanished down the Mollie hatch
