Chris really is an angel in the house, good as gold doesn’t even get close !

Outside still seems to be new new new !!! I see a bird, I see a rubbish bag, I see a person they must be coming to see me !!! Chris isn’t used to lead walking ! His inquisitiveness is endearing and the fact that he really does think everyone he sees is coming to see him is sooo funny and sweet !!!

As a result of seeing everything through puppies eyes Chris does pull on the lead at the moment, he will be so trainable but at the moment he remains so full of awe for the big wide world !

Loves to see doggies too and pulls towards them slightly over keen ! We’ve met a couple so far out and about on lead and Chris has said hello nicely but does get animated in a happy gangly legged squeaky puppyish way - same as with humans he just imagines the dog is there to see him and him alone !!!

So outside Chris will need some support, he still struggles not to chase at some cars when they make a whoosh noise and are close by so you do need to be very aware and keep him safe on pavements :D

All that said we’ve enjoyed some lovely walks and we have one exhausted pup once back home !

And as a reward (Chris really wasn’t that impressed as you can see !!!) he got some special doggie Xmas dinner today - which he absolutely loved and devoured super quick ...
Yummy says Chris !!

Chris loves home life love4.gif

Mr Perfect every night, clean as a whistle in the house and loves to go running into mum and dads room to make sure they’re awake in a morning !
He’s funny, he doesn’t jump up on the bed he kind of steps up one back leg at a time, kinda slow motion, Mr super cool !!!

I must say again, Chris’s fur is so so soft, very strokeable and he’s such a cuddly boy, loves loves loves his people :smiley-gen132.gif:

It was a lovely morning today so we got Chris’s harness on and mums motor scooter out (known as her trolley !) and walked into their small town. Chris was very happy around mums trolley :D

Bless him, he does pull on his lead out of sheer exuberance of being outside with so much to see ! Off to a coffee shop where we sat outside and then every dog in town seemed to walk by !!! Chris couldn’t contain his excitement and got quite barky, a little more so with each one ! I think walking with a known dog on a regular basis is what Chris needs to help him manage his excitement around dogs whilst on his lead and learn that he can ignore other dogs, especially if they ignore him !

We headed back via a shop where I got him an early Xmas present, an antler to chew - he loves it :D

Chris made us laugh last night - there was a dog on the tele and he was watching/listening (the cutest head tilts ever but I was too slow to photograph !) and then he went to check out where it had gone ...

An exciting walk this morning, an antler to chew on and some visitors this afternoon (friends of mum and dads) made for one tired boy - and quite a bit of dreaming judging by the twitchy legs and body as he’s sleeping !!!

Sleepy head ...

PS don’t let on ‘cos I don’t think he knows he’s got some pressies under the tree :D
Just on that Chris has been amazing, not touched a single wrapped present, not even gone close and all his toys still entirely in one piece !!! Wow :shock:
