Seven weeks old and growing! (Olive x ARI) UPDATE!

Black Boy is a replica of his daddy, ARI.  His coat will be flowing and he will be utterly handsome!
This pic shows his soft side but he is certainly a spunky pup who is in the middle of  the action! (6 3/4 lbs.)

Teal Girl continues to be very ladylike in her demeanor.  She loves to play but does a lot of  watching.  She is
a 'thinker' and 'planner' and loves to be cuddled. (7 1/2 lbs.)

Miss Red is nosey.  Not hyper, mind you, but definitely inquisitive.  Bright and cheery and loves life!  She
is a delightful pup that is entertaining and will always wag her tail and greet you with a big smile.  (7 lbs.)

The 'Mae West' of the group.   Pink is such a tank!  She will be the largest and has a coat of spun silk.
Pink has her moments of activity but for her size, she is remarkably gentle and somewhat lazy!  (9 lbs.)

UPDATE:

We had our first temperament test today!  We also had a wonderful surprise...because this week was no school for my trainer's children, the pups were entertained by twin girls during the entire two hours.  As one was being assessed, the others had lots of playtime and cuddles with the twins.  Of course the pups and girls were so happy!

Doing two temperament tests helps determine how much 'growth' has occurred in the two week intervals.  All the pups have very soft nature's in this group which was expected given the parents.  Over the next two weeks, they will have two vet visits, car rides, visitors and new experiences to help them gain more confidence.  It is critical that when you get your pup to continue this personality growth pattern.  Only by providing positive interactions with all kinds of people, places and things, will ANY pup develop more confidence.

A softly natured dog has a wonderful and sweet personality but if not exposed could become a fearful pup/dog along with developing anxieties.  So, use the results of these tests to avoid making mistakes and steer your pup to become the very best he or she can be by providing lots of socialization and exposure.  Just avoid dog parks initially until your pup is fully vaccinated.  Take them for fun car rides; visit neighbors and family that have socialized dogs; take to dog friendly stores like Home Depot, PetCo, and for walks to meet and greet strangers.  Provide treats for people to give your pup so they become accustomed to new sites and smells.  By doing this, your pup will become well rounded, socialized and a companion that everyone will love to visit with.  :+)
