What? 18 weeks and 30 pounds! What must it be like to have your body change and grow so rapidly?

Stars vision is improving. For dogs, scent is much more sensitive than sight, and excellent scenting is there from the beginning, but good vision takes awhile. Recently I noticed Star watching bugs, where she didn’t pay much attention to them before. Then I realized, they are just now coming into focus for her… a whole new world opening up! She watches ants and beetles and try’s to catch flies, and that’s all new within the last week or so.

And, oh boy, teeth! She’s getting her big girl teeth and it’s gotta hurt. Her gums are swollen and she’s enjoying chewing on cold things.


I’m not sure what Blue Sky thinks of the rapid growth rate…


She sleeps a lot, eats a lot, plays a lot, ( and poops a lot too!)
We’ve been doing some on line classes that I need to tell you about, and next week end we will be starting some in person classes. I’ll let you know how it’s going!
Wow Star light is getting so big!
Gigantic!😁
Oh they are both adorable. I didn’t know dogs eyesight had to develop.
They don’t see much after birth, they find their way with their little noses!
And that’s the way they end life too. Katie doesn’t see so good, but her nose sure works great!
Hi Dawn. Yes Joy was the same… not seeing so good, but her hearing was worse.
Star still looks like an adorable puppy, though a bit bigger. I love the pic of the two together. Thanks for sharing the delightful pictures!
I’m loving sharing them Eileen. 😀
She is beautiful!
She says ‘thank you Jan!’
Star sure is growing up fast. I didn’t know about a dog’s vision until your post. Really interesting. Your fur children sure are beautiful!!
They are so nose oriented… then hearing, then sight, unlike humans.
Wonderful!!!
Yes it is…
