Where did the week go?

Has it really been a week since I posted anything?!? Busy, busy week, that's for sure. Savannah's growing like crazy, Libby's decided she's staying, and Ethan thinks she's great...as long as she stays outside. It's getting better, but still a bit of a pain...always have to be vigilant inside. He'll get over it.

We went to our first puppy kindergarten at the vet's office last night. The class was big. Something like 11 puppies, so she split the group to two nights. We'll be in a group with a pemmie, a shiba, a dachshund, lab/border collie/goldie/something mix, and maybe another one or two. Savannah wasn't so sure about all those other dogs, especially when the instructor tried to put the shiba on his back. He's already bullying his owners, as shibas are wont to do, and the instructor happens to be the breeder of this particular boy, so she took him in hand to show him she was boss. Of course, when the typical shiba screaming didn't get her to stop, he decided to poop on her. Lovely! All the other puppies were like, "We'll do whatever she wants!" We've gone to this same class with our other two, so she was shocked at how calm and laid back Savannah is compared to Libby and Ethan. Can I just hear a hallelujah on this one?!? :) Finally, a calm Cardi...thank you, Louise, and Styxie, and Carbon!!!!!

Savannah did make nice with a cavalier that will be in the other class and the big mix puppy and talked a bit to the pemmie. Everyone just thought she was adorable, of course. And I'm proud to report that she's gained her pound (and a bit more) this week. She was 10.6 lbs. at 11 weeks. We'll attempt to do the obligatory stacked on the table pictures tonight between all the other things we've got to accomplish today. :)
