I'm Back!

Alright, I have realized that it is way past time for an update! This past week has been crazy, my best friend just left for college (she's a year older than me), so I've been trying to spend as much time with her. I've also been very busy getting ready for...dun dun dun....SCHOOL. yuck.


Anyways, Ty has been doing very good. She had a puppy playdate with my friend's chocolate lab puppy who is 1 month younger than Ty. They have a pool, so we let the pups have some water time. It mostly consited of 30 secs. in the pool, then 5 minutes running around in the yard with eachother. The picture is upside down because we were using an underwater camera, and the man at walgreens put them on the cd upside down...and for some reason, when I rotate it and save it in my computer, it doesn't show up that way when I go to upload it...

Tyanna also went to the boathouse with me. I'm on my school's crew team, and we were running a camp this week teaching the parents how to row. The first day we weren't going out on the water, so I decided to bring Ty. We practiced her commands while weaving inbetween loud machines. She did excellent, and kept her focus on me....as well as all four paws on the ground.

Tyanna's "drop" "leave it" and "no" are absolutely PHENOMINAL! No matter what she has in her mouth, be it a cicada (her FAVORITE bug to eat), a water bottle top she found at the park, one strand of grass...no matter WHAT the object is, she will drop it. It was funny because she was picking up some flower petals and I told her to "drop it", but they were stuck on her tongue, and she couldn't get them out...but she was trying!

She is now 26 pounds (and is 4 months old). This means that she will be around 51lb as an adult....a little labby!

What a cool photo! Angel is 4 months old too... but 30.2 pounds. So I guess she'll be about 60 pounds! Angel isn't half as good as Ty sounds about dropping stuff...

Ah, what a good girl. That is so funny about the flower trying to get that out of her mouth!
