    ~*introducing 8 week old Riley!*~

    We got our new puppy a week ago. She was born on April 13, so she will be 8 weeks old on Tuesday. She weighs about 9 lbs

    Before I post the pictures I'd just like to brag a little bit! She is almost housebroken! She has had 4 little accidents since we brought her home (she goes out about 10-15 times a day). She also knows how to sit and she has been sleeping through the night. She's a really good girl just really mouthy and bitey. She has a kong, rope toys, "chilly bone" and she still always goes for my hands. I say No and hold her mouth closed but she thinks i'm playing. I've also tried ignoring her and saying "Ow!" really loud but she doesn't care. I just want her to stop biting me because her puppy teeth can really get a good grip. Suggestions would be appreciated!!

    Now for pictures!

    This is her daddy, Zack.


    And her momma, Tina.


    This is her litter, 10 puppies. 3 black and 7 yellow.


    The first time we saw them.. at 5-6 weeks old.


    One of the two black females (50% chance she's Riley! They both look alike)


    Her on the car ride home.. she cried for a minute and slept for the 30 min ride home.


    more coming..

    I'm so happy for you! YAY!

    So is Riley the final name that your family decided on? Or is it still possible that they may change it?

    Wonderful!! Congrats!! Major doesn't bite that much anmore, only on occasions, I think he wants to test if the same rule still applies. What worked for him was saying "NO!" and then going in the house (you could go in a different room) for about 10 minutes or so. It probably doesn't need to be that long, but for Major it did lol.

    These are her siblings the day we took her home. She said goodbye through the fence.. she was the first to graduate!


    This step is huge for her. She has trouble going up and down it.


    Posing with her rubber ducky.


    Her dog food is in the pantry so she always sits at the door and cries.


    The bricks are cool on her tummy, she falls asleep on them but sometimes she falls off them


    "You mean I could have gone around??"


    She likes to sleep like this.


    We've gotten her to be real comfortable on her back so we put her like that when she's tired.






    **Will somebody please make a siggy for Riley? I would appreciate it! **

    ALl those poor yellow ones left! Couldn't you have taken just a *few* more?? Then I could have compared them with Major, to help me on my quest of finding out his breed/s (I know yellow lab, obvisouly, but you know, I wanted to know if there were any more)

    She is so cute though!

    ANd I can DEFINATELY see her falling off those bricks, so cute!

    Well it's been a week and it's time she has an official name. I think we've all gotten used to it because we've started to call her that.

    And all the puppies are spoken for, don't worry! As of today I think 2 more are waiting to go home. What's neat is our friends got Riley's yellow brother and THEIR friends got her black brother.

    I like the one of her on the porch step, the rubber ducky one and the one of her on the bricks.

    I like any colors, just make it so people know shes a girl because Riley can be a boys name too.

    Thank you soooo much! Could you also put my Brooke in there? Even though she's gone she'll always be my little baby. (you can put Brooke, rest in peace or RB Brooke, etc)
