5 months today

Here are the girls at 5 months old. They look like they are admiring me, but really they just want to sit pretty for the banana I'm holding.

Aww they're cute! How is it with two puppies?

Tlov - it was really hard when we got them 8 weeks ago...just to keep track of them and deal with housebreaking. It has gotten easier but we still have our issues. One loves to play and is more energetic so when Bella is done I have to sometimes drag Sage off of her and make her calm down so they don't fight. We don't have resource guarding issues, but Sage does everything very fast and Bella takes her time so when they are eating we make sure to be close by so Sage doesn't try to steal Bella's food and they now get their carrots in their crates because Bella takes her time to eat it and Sage would steal it right out of her mouth.

We do have to train and brush/clean ears separately because the one not being attended too just gets in the way. It's cool to see their personalities though. Bella is a affection motivated and is picking up commands very well where Sage is Prey/food motivated and she is more difficult to get focused sometimes.

So, short answer, it has it's challenges but I wouldn't give either of them up.

Just enjoy it now...in no time they will always look to you like that...ALWAYS...when you are taking a bath, sitting on the toilet, getting frisky in the bedroom...you get the idea. Your privacy will go straight out the window & eyes will always be watching! LOL!

Ugh...we were doing so well and today Sage had an accident in the house. They were playing and I didn't realize she was waiting at the back door so she came into the living room right in front of me and peed. Just a reminder to not drop your guard until you know they are house broken...or until you put them in diapers.

They are so cute! I would love to have another puppy, but I can't imagine being able to keep up with 2. It must be fun watching them both grow and develop there own personalities.

Total cuties! I just gave my guys some banana for the first time the other day, it was 10min of them picking it up rolling it in their mouths then drop on the floor sniff and start the whole process again. Then when they finally chewed and ate it they both just appeared behind me asking for more of that sweet weird texture food lol.

They are so pretty!

The pink collar is Bella and the red collar is sage. Bella loves bananas and sage wants whatever Bella has.

Thanks everyone. Had to take Bella to the vet today for diarrhea and not wanting to drink. Put her on more probiotics and a mild antibiotic to help heal her gut. Should know more once we get the poop sample back. She was starting to dehydrate (gums starting to get tacky) so I opted to get fluid put under her skin. She looks like Quasimodo. And she came home to her bland dinner and pill and decided to finally take a little sip of water after not having anything but ice all day.
We are trying to figure out if it could be the heart work meds she took sat or if she got something at Petsmart training or the groomer but the runny poo started yesterday. More to come.
