Ugly Puppy

[Vette]

The words "ugly" and "puppy" just don't belong together - rather like "police" and "intelligence"

Couldnt agree more!!

I don't think Molly was ugly at all! I do know what you mean though...Tango had a stage during her puppyhood that I often call her 'ugly stage', but it was really just an awkward stage.

I don't see any ugly puppy, just a beautiful one!

Nebo had a goofy puppy stage.....ears and paws too big for him, but he was still cute.

Awww, she's not ugly, she's adorable!!!

All puppies go through that awkward stage at one point or another. You should see Rosie at the moment, her awkward stage started at 3 months when one ear went up and the other flopped over and she still hasn't filled out Of course it'll take a while as she's a shepherd, but I still love her.

15 puppies, 6 weeks old, 14 puppies 2 to 3 weeks old, thats what I saw and played with (the 6 week) this weekend were my hubby works - future guide dogs the only word I can use to describe that experience is GIGGLE, because that's what I was doing as they were nipping my toes, hair, pulling pant legs etc etc....all I could do was giggle it was too much fun

PUPPY & GIGGLE never ugly puppies, they're to adorable

lol ok here ya go:

Rosie's awkward pictures...



first stage....3 months old, 1 ear standing streight up, the other flopped over lol



4 months



5 months, not too bad though, she took a bit of a break there




6 months, HUGE ears, HUGE feet,



and 7 months, not so bad anymore, but still incredibly clumsey and the attention span of a gnat before I get her to focus on something.



and one more just for the heck of it. She's huge though, 26 inches at the shoulder and probably around 80 pounds now. She just turned 8 months old the 18th. She's still got a little droop in the left ear lol. Not sure if thats gonna fix itself, but oh well, I love her anyway I think it adds character

Huge knees, loose skin from rapid growth spurts, clumsy feet, and extremely limber tying his back into pretzels as Zubin didnt have a care in the world ( still doesnt)

The last pose I've seen before, from many sight hounds. I've seen in nicknamed "cock*roaching" ( maybe because that's what a dead roach looks like?) but it's a funny name & a cute pose
