Thanks all. Prince is the best when it comes to socializing pups. He is very patient as you can see.
Freedom - I am a schedule person. Have to be with my memory problems. So to make sure that not only the pups have the time they need but also Sheena and Luca and my kids everyone is on the schedule. The only way it will work. Plus my kids are VERy involved in all aspects of this. for example in the morning while i vacuum the carpet area in the pen and get the pups breakfast ready Isaebau and Dedrick are responsible for sitting next to the door and petting, kissing, playing with and distracting the pups so they don't try to come and play with the vacuum. They are not the least bit scared fo it and think it is a toy.It is hard work but everyone needs time and so I make them all work together and they know they have time they each get. But it is all worth it.
As for how I keep track of everyone. I have a chart where I write down interesting facts everyday of the pups antics. Then at night before bed I transfer them to the pups indivual diaries. This way I know each personality and will better be able to match pups and families but also help the families to understand their pups better.
finn's mom - Yup all have homes. They have since before they were born. The families have all picked their call names and registered names. They have not met them yet. No visiting till they have their first shots at 5 1/2 weeks. After that they can visit. And no one will know which pup they are getting till they are 7 weeks old and have been temperment tested.
Thanks agian all.
