Jasper's puppy days

[Schnauzer Sam]

His social skills are great Alison. You can forgive him a few high jinks at home if he's such a pleasure when out. We've met Bingo a few times and he's taken a real shine to Edie

Lovely photos as usual Alison, I was only thinking yesterday morning we hadn't had any for a week, please keep them coming!

I went to our local pet-shop yesterday to stock up on food for our pooches and the Manager asked when we would be adding a 3rd - I mentioned Jasper and Monty and said any "3rd" would just have to be a white mini

Followed by a 4th Pepper and salt for a full set

Jasper is gorgeous!!!!

Hello stranger nice to see you pop in. Hows your new bundle of fluff ?

He’s amazing thank you! I’ll do an update post as you can imagine he’s been keeping me busy

[Schnauzer Sam]

I first met Jasper on 25 June, today, one month on we met up again with Rosie and Edie. I can't believe how much he's grown in a month and how much more confident he is. He really is a gorgeous little pup. It was nice to meet up with Alison and her husband again too.

All three dogs had good socialisation experience today and Rosie even allowed Alison to feed her some treats - a first. Rosie almost joined in some play but Jasper was definitely up for more play than Edie who was a little subdued today, especially when Jasper's natural urges kicked in

Anyway, here's a collection of pics from today's meeting.

What lovely piccies Sam, great to see they are getting on so well.

Wonderful photos - looks like so much fun!

Great photos Sam. The one of you with the 3 of them is lovely. We all had a great afternoon, shame we got thrown out at closing time at the café

Rosie is a sweet sensitive soul bless her. She made my day coming for treats especially when you told me she'd never taken one from anyone before

It was closing time? There was me thinking it was your dancing on the table that caused the problem

Yes, with Rosie, many have tried, but never succeeded in coaxing her to accept a treat. You're the first person outside her immediate family to have been trusted. Just took 2 years to get there

My favourite pic is the one of Jasper just about to paw Edie.

Wonderful photos and where did Jasper's legs come from??

Thank goodness you'd put your camera away by that time

I know that's a very common comment about how long his legs are. This photos a bit fuzzy but funny he looks like a head on stilts


I think they're supposed to be square when adult at the moment I think his legs are definitely longer than his back

[Dawnspell]

Another socialisation animal encounter. He wouldn't go any closer than this to the hedgehog but came and climbed on my knee to watch it for about 5 mins

Lovely! He's a gorgeous little chap, his coat looks very coarse, it it?

[Dawnspell]

He has a lovely wire coat coming through and it lays lovely and flat. He has hardly any undercoat at all I've only carded him once and got a marble size ball of fluff

If he was clipped I think hed be one of those that would still have prickly hairs growing through and would be very thin coated. All the pups in the litter looked strippable some definitely had more fluff than Jasper though. The breeder said Jasper and another pup would have best coats out of litter and she knew I would be stripping him.
