At the moment, this puppy is one of the smallest and she acts a little bit like the baby sister. She is a tad nervous in new situations. If something new happens, she backs up and bit and looks for one of the her bigger siblings to go first.
Her first trip to watch tv went well. She was a bit uptight for about a minute or so. Then she got into the idea and settled right down to being petted and rubbed on.
Many pups are like this at 5 weeks of age. Puppies are like kids. Each one of them has their own development schedule. This is not just a bold as some of the other pups at this age.
She is a very colorful pup. She has two narrow white rings around her neck and a half white ring over her hip. She has brown on her face and all 4 legs are white.
Today, I was sitting down on the grass as the pup ate their dinner. Several pups were coming by and getting rubbed and loved. Summer can right up and sit down in front of me – sort of like “I would like a little attention if you don’t mind” Not pushy but not timid either. Sort of polite.
English Shepherds are basically born with manners. They come and sit and watch. Of course they are still puppies and love to pull on your pant legs.
