It's amazing how much development and growth has occured in the last week. Pups are going further afield, exploring more, being more adventurous and just plain growing. Michael's mom arrived from Europe the same day the pups turned 8 weeks of age. She's very good with our dogs and loves the puppies but of course, we have to be very careful to ensure she doesn't fall or trip when they are around. So, she's ordered to "sit, stay" and then we spray her feet and shoes with Bitter Apple so the little devils (darlings) don't bite her.
