Kaiser at Nephews 10th B-Day Party

My nephew turned 10 yesterday! My husband and I brought Kaiser to the party at a local park. I don't have a picture of my nephew that isn't blurry! You can see my husband who is 5'10" working with Kaiser trying to get him to pose pretty for pictures. The little girl is my neice. The lady sitting at the picnic table is my twin sis, Shannon. Hope you enjoy the pictures!

Kaiser Turned 6 Months Old!

What a fabulous 6 months we've been having with Kaiser! My puppy is growing so much. Just the other day it seems he wasn't able to reach my bed and now he can walk over and lay his head down on my bed!

He still hates baths. I'm taking him to the groomer this week for handling/socialization where he will have his ears cleaned and a nail trim. Of course they'll shampoo him and blow him dry. I've been getting him used to my blow dryer, but he doesn't like it.

We go for walks in the evening after the sun goes down because it's too hot during the day. We try to go to the dog park every week when the weather isn't too hot.

Here are a few pictures I took of him on Aug. 5-6th. I hope you enjoy them!

Look how dark I am now!

We're on our way to Bass Pro Shop!

Hey Mom, what's this big animal?

Aw, man, you're making me do this here???

Lots of kids came up to him and starting petting him like they instinctively KNEW he is friendly!

Here's Kaiser at 5.5 months old. Look how dark he is now!!

Baby Wipes Scare!

Last week Kaiser swallowed some baby wipes. We waited to see if he would pass them. On day 3 he quit eating and vomited water and bile. I rushed him to the ER vet where they kept him overnight. They shaved Kaiser's right forearm all the way around for the IV. He's back home now and doing fine! He passed the wipes while at his regular vet's office. He's also on an antibiotic. He's eating much better now and is playing like crazy.

We got a bigger kiddie pool for him to play in. Enjoy!

Kaiser showing off the medal that he won! Best of Breed Puppy! Woo Hoo!! He beat 4 other contenders! I'm so proud of him!!

20 wks old & Kaiser's First Show in Hutto, TX

OH BOY! We're going HOME!

He thinks he's a lap dog. Eva LOVES him!

Waiting for the next show to start

Resting in between show times. We went back to the hotel where it was cool.

Favorite place to rest at the hotel. The cold tile floor.

Kaiser playing with his sister, BJ!

Kaiser giving Mom a little kiss (how cute!)

I'm so proud of my boy! He won Best of Breed Puppy in the first show! Here's a few pictures of Kaiser at the show and hanging out at the hotel. It was very hot in Hutto and inside the arena. He did his best before he got too hot and tired. Then I was practically dragging him around the ring. We'll work on things!

20 Weeks Old Today!!!

( Not a great shot, he was still hunched up a bit after doing his business)

(I can't figure out how to rotate the picture. Sorry!) Look how wide his stripe is getting!

The 3rd picture is his imitation of Hobbs (from Calvin & Hobbs). How can he sleep like that?? Is that a Yoga Move??

WOW! Kaiser is 5 months old today! It seems like just yesterday that I crammed him into a carrier too small for him and drove home with him howling all the way. He fit into the carrier, he just didn't have much room. I didn't expect him to be so big at 8 weeks! Now I look at that little pet taxi next to him and just shake my head with my mouth hanging open.

I tried to get a few pictures of Kaiser in the back yard, but it was stinkin' HOT! Look at the grass already brown and dried up. Kaiser and I didn't stay outside very long. Enjoy the few pictures we got!
