Agatha weighed in at 11lbs 4oz at the vet today, so she continues to be very small compared to her siblings. As she does everywhere she goes, she totally charmed everyone at the vet’s office.

Ear taping: Lint rollers!
Hey, all you who are ear-taping: I discovered this week that using a cheap lint roller gives you big, wide, stiff sheets of perfectly sized masking tape. Just tear off one section and it should fit pretty perfectly around the whole ear. Kipling is still in tape because his ears are HUGE; they were showing no signs of coming up on their own.

Emma Update
Emma went to the vet for her second round of shots yesterday. She is up to 11 lbs (from 9.2 when she arrived.) She is growing by leaps and bounds!

Kipling in class day 2
Kipling was the STAR of class tonight. He was thrilled to be back, ran right up the stairs on his leash, and played like a wild man (a very polite wild man) with dogs from elderly to puppies, from huge to tiny.

I’m a little leery of a few of the schools closer to me and Anne (the owner and instructor at Paws for Praise) is a total sweetheart and really knows dogs. He had a socialization class today and every Sunday, and will get into puppy K at a different facility this...
