Basil, updated pictures at 10 weeks!
Ok, since I have people asking, here are some updated pics of Basil. He is a little over 10 weeks in the pictures, 11 in the video.
He is almost housebroken, and will sit, lay down, and give up a toy (or whatever he has picked up from the floor) on command. We have just started teaching him to behave when on a leash. He is a really good puppy, and has LOTS of energy.
the puppy is here!
Welcome to our home little Basil (after Basil Rathbone who played Sherlock Holmes)
He is 8 weeks old, and his dad is a Great Pyrenees (140 lbs) and him mom is a black Labrador (70 lbs) He is going to be a big boy! Right now he is only 7 lbs…
this sticker was stuck on one of his toys, and he got it on his head!
Puppy on the way
We are getting a new puppy! His mother is a black lab, and his daddy is a Great Pyrenees. We will be picking him up February 29. Sam and I are both thrilled, but despite the enthusiasm, there is a bit of tension…
The great name debate is on.
I would like to name him Aneto, after the highest peak in the Pyrenees Mountains (where the Great Pyrenees breed comes from, go figure) or Shadrach, a Babylonian name meaning “Command of Aku” (the Babylonian moon god).
He threw out suggestions like Viggo, Gunther, Brahman, and (the ever so creative) Max.
GUNTHER?
Well, the topic is still open to debate, so we will see. In the meantime, check out this super cute picture of the little guy.
