Weekly Series (ahem, monthly?): 7 Months

[yes, that's "Love it or List it" in the background.]


Age: 7 months  (I'm behind, he's almost 8 months now)

Weight: 90lbs (!!!!)

Likes:  SNOW, so much love for the snow.  Still loving the cat when she bats you in the face through the baby gate.  Your friend Martin, a huge fluffy black puppy, at your Petsmart training class.  Squeaky toys, all day every day.  Rawhides.  Peanut butter.  Baby carrots, you can't get enough and definitely wag like you think you're sneaking it.

Dislikes:  Your gentle leader harness, you've developed an intense dislike for it.  Still not believing you're not allowed on the couch, so you hate being corrected for jumping up.  Your muddy feet being wiped.

Henry has gotten SO huge since my last update, he's gained 33 lbs since my last series post.  He's definitely not gaining 5lbs a week like he was in the beginning, so we're not sure if he's just hit a slow period or maybe he won't hit the full 140lbs that he could max out at.  He's still got several months until he's a year and some monster paws so we know he's still got some growing to do.  The bigger he gets the more he slobbers it seems, the other day I found a piece of food/spit stuck on the wall about 6 feet up, picture Beethoven-esque shaking.  Oh the horror.  Good thing we love him because he can be a bit of a handful. 

Oh, you need a comparison pic?  I thought so.  Here you go.

  3. Oh my goodness. He is too much. We find slobber EVERYWHERE. Floyd hates having his paws wiped too...we've had to start bribing him with treats to get them wiped.

  5. 90 pounds at 7 months! Wow! So big. He is such a cutie. Bosley doesn't understand why he isn't allowed on the couch anymore. I may or may not have always let him up on the couch (and even PUT him there) when he was a little puppy.
