Heidi Update

I thought it would be fun to update everyone on how our little puppy Heidi is doing these days! She has grown so much in these last 5 months we've had her. She is now almost 7 months old, which I learned is considered the 'adolescent' stage for her breed. She is definitely a little teenager. You can see pictures/videos of her as a youngster in my April, June, and July posts. Her black fur is currently being replaced with grayish-whitish-silverish fur. She still has tan on her legs, ears, and face. The black on her face is slowly disappearing as well. We didn't think we'd like her with silver fur at first, but now I actually prefer it! She is so much bigger now than she was, even though she's still a tiny dog. She loves to stick her head out the window while we're driving and feel the wind in her face. I'm always afraid she's going to jump out the window, so Adam holds onto her harness.














She also loves to go to the frisbee golf park with us and chase after the frisbees. We're still training her to run to the frisbee without picking it up. She's pretty good most of the time. She's picking up some bad habits from other dogs though. She will bark at other dogs (as long as she's safe within a fence or vehicle). Adam said the other day he heard her outside barking, and it sounded kind of like the howl of our neighbor's beagle. She thinks she's tough until she's no longer in a safe position compared to the other dog.


She also jumps around to the window opening of the kitchen so she can see what I'm doing on the kitchen counter. I think it is adorable. We made her do it for the video, but she'll normally climb up on the couch and just sit there watching us.

She's still pretty hyper and crazy, but her biting and housebreaking have improved, and we love her to death!
