Indy at 11 Weeks (11.5)



Next Wednesday we will go to the vet for Indy's 12 week shots. I'm guessing that he is at LEAST 10 pounds now, which means that he's doubled in size since we brought him home.

In class this week we worked on loose leash walking. Indy is still scared of Ella (who is a Chocolate Lab/Weimaraner mix) but has been socializing with other dogs very well.


We have taken some other funny videos that we'll share at some point. (All videos will be added to Indy's YouTube Playlist.)

Indy at 9 weeks and his first week home

Today Indy is 9 weeks old, and has been with us almost a week. His personality grows every day. He sleeps a LOT, and is starting to go into his crate on his own to chill. He gets distracted easily, and needs to be reminded that he is in the middle of eating.


When Indy is sleeping, we can do almost anything to him without him complaining



Indy is now sleeping through the night, only barking in the morning (~5:30) to tell us that it is morning time. Last night he went into the crate by himself to nap!


Indy loves to use Keith's legs as a jungle gym. He will play for long periods of time, which makes him super tired and take long naps. (Nap time is great... it allows us to get things done and stop worrying about accidents!)



Earlier I mentioned Indy's Lady Bug Pillow/stuffed animal and how much he loves it... I just didn't say how! Let's just say that Indy is very much a male dog. The pillow has a velcro tab on the bottom which allows you to convert it from a pillow into a stuffed animal shape.



Indy will also play with the lady bug in standard puppy fashion, and loves to try to whip it back and forth. I love the following picture because you can see where his head used to be by a white streak:



Today is also Keith's first day in his new lab at Northwestern. Indy and I walked him to the back door, and boy was Indy upset when Keith went out but we didn't. He went and scratched at his leash and the door, so I decided to take him out. Good think I did because then he peed in his spot! (He had gone about 45 min earlier, so it wasn't a time when I would normally take him out, I just wanted to reward him for asking to go out... and he rewarded me!)

Indy at 8 weeks

Indy is 8 weeks and 2 days, and just had his second round of shots. He weighs 4 pounds 11 ounces and is a huge fluffball. He currently follows us around like a little (white) shadow, so we have to be careful not to trip over him. Indy spends a lot of the day sleeping, but when he is awake he is lovable and sweet. Now we just need to get him to allow us to sleep through the night!


Coming home from the airport:


Picking Indy up at the Airport was easier than we had expected... especially since we walked by the Parcel counter after our LA flight the day before. Indy was timid when we got him home, but every hour that passes he is braver and more confident. (His encounter with a lawnmower went very well!)


The first picture of Indy, taken at the airport. His crate was pretty messy after the flight!

First bathtime in the sink... now Indy AND his crate are clean!

Right now, Indy is content to sit at our feet as we watch Criminal Minds. He occasionally reacts to something he hears in the TV show (sirens), but doesn't appear to be easily startled.

Other photos of Indy from his first day home:



Rebecca knit Indy a "welcome ribbon" - he didn't really love wearing it, but he sure loved playing with it and was sad when I took it away.

I just learned
how to make a slide show from Picasa for a blog post... I think this is a feature I am going to use a lot!
