She is sleeping in a laundry basket. The mirror tricks her into thinking there are other puppies around.
She reminds me very much of a pug. I can see why all those nineteenth century dog experts thought of pugs being toy mastiffs.
You can’t see her eyes, but they are very sharp and expressive. This is a smart dog.
She has very well developed muscles already. I’m actually quite shocked at how this dog is put together, and she’s only a seven-week-old!








My pups are quite the hardbodies by the time they are eight weeks old. Free choice exercise.
How much does she weigh?
10 pounds. About the same size as a golden retriever pup at the same age, but the muscling is very different. It’s quite impressive.
I’ll have to send you a pic of how I raise falcons and what I use instead of a mirror…
We always used a a mechanical clock to help accustom them to sleeping alone.
