Jaspers first few days

The Schnauzer puppy stage goes by so quickly, so make sure you get lots of pictures and make sure that you share them with the rest of us. Bristle noses, floppy ears and wagging tails are all welcome.

Jaspers first few days

Post by Dawnspell »

Well he's experienced a lot in his first few days. Lots of road journeys, taxi ride, plane trip and taken it all in his stride.

He is soooo tiny but full of personality. Out and about people have been commenting on how calm and chilled out he is. At home when awake he's as mad as a box of frogs, he's so inquisitive, he paws bats things before pouncing on them and chewing it. He is trying to jump up on to settee and nearly making it. He launched himself off the settee and landed on his bean bag thank goodness, no fear. He's worked out offering a sit gets good things, almost mastered fetch, answers to his name.

We went to local garden centre today not realizing there was local pet dog show taking place so that was good experience for him. We've had the first "Is he a westie?" Then I took him out of his carrier and they saw his long legs and didn't know what he was :))

Taking photos while he's awake is a challenge he's never still.

He has a great nose for sniffing things out

Sticks and leaves get chewed

My favorite photo so far. Chewing on a feather :x Butter wouldn't melt in his mouth =)) it would get chewed though :D

Morning Alison, I've been waiting to see these photos all weekend - only got access to a computer at work at the mo :( He is so cute, and I love the photos, the last one is just gorgeous and as you say, butter wouldn't melt - not!!!! So looking forward to hearing how he progresses over the next months. Does the robin still come to visit you?

His first day as office dog. Made himself at home on super sized bean bag.

Little Robin still coming
Yes I can manage lots of photos =))

I've decided he's not a baby crocodile he's a great white shark that grows extra teeth over night.

Bring your dog to work day was last Friday!!

I was always envious that you were able to have canine company all day at work. Looks like Jasper's taking to his admin roles quite comfortably.

Lovely photos and sounds like the socialisation is going very well. Wonderful that you put these pups to work straight away Alison. Hope he is being paid in lots of treats.

Its a bit of a worry at the minute with cables when hes awake. Fortunately we have always had a crate in the office and the bean bag and hes decided on his own the crate and bean bag are good places to sleep right by my chair.

Barney used to spend the first 10 min of every morning bringing me all the bits of paper his Dad had dropped on the floor the previous day for treats :D Jasper will probably be the official paper shredder =))
