Mister Red is five weeks old and still our big, confident boy! This week's move into the family room means even more opportunities to be right in the middle of the action, and he has settled right in. The puppies have also started enjoying picnic-style meals outside while we begin encouraging outdoor potty habits. Our big puppy shopping spree brought home toys, bones, blankets, and all sorts of new textures to explore. Red is happy to check things out, but the food bowl is still the star of the show. Toys are fun enough, bones have failed to impress, and even this confident boy is still a sucker for a good cuddle.

Big, brave, strong, and beautiful! Red is a handsome boy, and his confident little personality makes us think he might already know it. He was the first puppy to show real interest in toys, was a natural at lapping up puppy mush, and already wants to be part of whatever we are doing. If he catches us giving another puppy attention, he is quick to nose or paw at our hands as if to say, "Don't forget about me!" He is playful, confident, and full of personality.

​I’m not sure what happened, but Mister Red had a MAJOR growth spurt this week and is now the largest puppy in the litter by nearly a whole pound! He is big. He is handsome. And he is oh-so-sweet! ❤️ He loves to play and is already showing off just how strong he is, holding his head up and sitting pretty like a champ. 

​Mr. Red has officially claimed the heavyweight title! Not only is he the biggest puppy in the litter, but he's also had the largest overall weight gain during his first two weeks. Somehow he keeps getting chunkier every day, and each ounce seems to add another layer of cuteness!

Mr. Red has proudly held onto his title as the biggest puppy in the litter! His size and steady weight gain suggest he may grow into a big, handsome boy. He's certainly making the most of every meal offered to him.
