​Dock is such a funny mix of an easygoing, wise old soul and a miniature athlete. One minute he’s calmly taking everything in like he’s been around forever, and the next he’s flying through the air like this. Just look at the height on that jump!

Dock is 11 weeks old!
He has a very low-key personality. He was the least excited about the ball, and after a few good runs he decided he’d rather take it easy and spent the rest of the time moseying around the field, happily sniffing and exploring.
Dock seems to enjoy taking his time and seeing the world at his own pace.

Mister Seven has a calm confidence about him.
He isn’t the loudest in the room, and he doesn’t need to be. While some of his siblings rush forward, Mister Seven takes a moment to assess. He watches. He processes. And then he steps in with quiet assurance.
There is something incredibly steady about him.
He enjoys playtime and engages happily with his littermates, but he doesn’t feel the need to compete for attention. When things settle down, he is more than content to relax near his people, soaking in the closeness without demanding it.
Mister Seven is:

• Even-tempered
  
• Thoughtful and observant
  
• Gently affectionate
  
• Confident without being overwhelming
  
• Balanced in energy
  

He feels like the kind of dog who will grow into a loyal companion with a deep bond to his family. The kind who follows you from room to room not out of neediness, but because he genuinely enjoys being near you.

Lucky Seven has continued to grow and thrive this week. He has really appreciated the warmer weather and loves heading outside when the sun is out. He reminds me so much of his mama, sweet, sensitive, and eager to please his people.

Mister 7 had zero desire to explore the snow. In his eyes, there were only two reasonable options: sitting atop the sled where his feet could remain dry while the kids played in the background, or hopping straight into someone’s arms. Total time spent outdoors today: 3.5 minutes! With highs in the 60s next week, we’re looking forward to bringing him back out when the ground doesn’t feel like it’s betraying his paws. 

Mister Seven is a truly lovable little guy, and his sweet face is a perfect match for his gentle personality. 
He has what I would call a classic “middle of the pack” temperament. He’s eager to play, happy to cuddle, quick to greet the humans, and always ready to chase after his mama. He’s active, but not the most active. Cuddly, but not the most cuddly. He fits right in the middle in the very best way.

Mister seven may have been the last puppy to open his eyes, but he was the first puppy who learned how to sit up like a big boy! He looks so proud to show off his growth this week and has become quite the people pup... he was the only pup he tried to come back to the humans instead of the puppy pile when returned to the whelping box!
