Risa is 12 weeks now and doing really great. The 4 weeks we've spent with him were full of worries, but full of fun, too. We love him so much! He turned to be a strong personality, stubborn sometimes, but brave and intelligent. We couldn't do much training because of his 2-weeks-long stomach problems - no treats, no training. But he learned a lot about our life just by watching us.
He's quite good on the leash, just a little bit of FRAPing sometimes. I take him to the town very often to see all kinds of people and dogs, to get used to the traffic and its noises. Risa isn't afraid of anything, very courageous little boy. The only problem is his perfect nose - he actually hoovers the sidewalks and tries to eat anything he founds. Nevermind crumbs, but I'm a bit worried about him eating cherrystones (2 yesterday, 1 today morning) and tasting chewing-gums. We work on this, I hope he will learn "Leave it" ("Fuj" in our language) properly.
Risa is getting his last vaccination in 2 weeks and I hope to start visiting puppy classes with him after that. He doesn't have a chance to meet many dogs and I think he is starving for some doggy plays.

What a gorgeous pup! Triley also had tummy issues as a pup - for training we just gave him small bits of his food (at the time it was rice and boiled chicken) instead of treats, until his tummy could handle the treats again. He also (still) hoovers the sidewalk - it drives us crazy! He knows "leave it" but we have to be paying enough attention to noice when he's headed for something. Good luck! Puppy classes were great for training and socialization!

That is a beautiful picture of him. I'm glad to hear he is doing well!
