Well, THAT escalated quickly

Another dog park friend

First dog park for the baby!

7 months!

Baby's first lake trip

Gotta take advantage of having a Great Lake in our backyard (almost)!  Took the 2 big kids and Dozer up for a little meander- coolish Berner weather, and lots of open parking.  Dogs aren't allowed on the beach itself, but we wandered in the park area next to the steps that led down.  D went into super bloodhound mode pulling like crazy and trying to smell ALLTHESMELLS at once.

Steps-and-stair Berners (back-to-front: Dozer, Kodo, Tali)

Is he snuggling or do I have him in a headlock to keep him from wiggling?

Getting a selfie w 2 people and 3 dogs all facing front and all in the frame is quite the challenge!

Contemplating nature or planning mischief?

Brian dared to hold all three leashes at once!  And his arms are still attached!

Now this one IS a snuggle.  For sure.  I think.

Baby-training progress

So Dozer now knows...

• Sit
• Down
• Relax
• Up
• Wait
• Come/Here
• Gentle
• his name
• Turn
• Other turn
• Paw/shake
• Around
• Through
• and is getting Back up.

Will try to get videos of some combos shortly!

Lamb-y hugs!

Lamb-y hugs- Dozer's favorite snuggle. I put my arms around him like picking up a lamb and he leans on me and smiles BIIIIG smiles. Also shows how freaking tall he is getting! Almost 7 months and I swear he has grown 2 inches. Or maybe that is just the curls on his back...

Lapdog

He loves his daddy!

Another couch dog?

Apparently SOMEONE thinks he should be a couch dog. Ummmm, only if you plan on staying 60 pounds dude! The sweet baby-deer face is pure manipulation.

My idol

I want to be a bear-rug when I grow up, just like my big brother!

Too late for Easter Bunny!

Snuggling the shark

Training

Only 3 weeks with us and the baby is getting very good at his long waits!
