Pictures, Pictures, Pictures

Logan will be 7 months old tomorrow. He is such a cutie! He got his first tooth last week, so I guess that means, he is officially growing up. Mickie and Tim are doing well. These 2 pictures were taken by Penney's. There is another really cute one of Logan with Santa that I will have to share next time.

























The long awaited update pictures of Sarah are finally here. I have been terribly busy with work and working more. I tried to get some of her with Charlie or in places around the house where you would be able to get an idea of her size.















She listens to everything I say. I think she takes notes. In fact, I am certain that she takes notes at puppy class. She is doing Very well in her training. I guess after training a Clumber Spaniel...well, never mind.















Her color is really coming out now. She is really beautiful! ( Not that I am partial or anything.) Her coat is coming in, soft, and shiney black.












Sarah is 4 months old today. She weighed 22 pounds at her vet visit on December 4. So she has grown, but is still a bit small and slim. She should be about 4 pounds bigger than she is. She is doing pretty well on eating but everytime she starts looking a little rounder, then she gets taller and is skinnier again.






























































The picture of Sarah by the back door I liked because she was stacking herself. I tried to take the picture, quick, before she moved and unfortunately got it off-center and clipped her ears off in it.










Also, I have a question to ask for the purpose of getting information and feedback. Sarah is tentatively scheduled for spaying on February 1st. But I have heard, from my dog training person, that spaying them too young will inhibit them from reaching their full size as it somehow effects their growth hormones. She said that breeders are recommending spaying the larger breed dogs later, rather than sooner. The early spaying has also been linked to mammary cancers. So, let me know what you think on this.
