Reflection are Scary

Orly has been obsessed with her reflection lately. She loves looking at herself in the mirror, which she does not bark at. When she sees her self in the window or door she goes nuts!




Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the cutest of them all?


Favorite Pics

Orly is quite photogenic, so I have some favorite pics to post. Oh, and a few of Justus and I!

Family Came for a Visit

Last weekend my family came down to visit Orly and have some pizza. However, Orly was the main reason they came to visit. Orly loved licking Dad's empty beer bottle and Wendy loved cuddles with Orly!

Yum, beer!

Puppy Hot Laps

Puppies are full of personality! Sometimes Orly gets a bit obsessed and takes off on what I call hot laps Justus calls it zoomies. Regardless- it is pretty cute when she takes off!

One Smart Pup!

I have been working with Orly on sit, shake, and down. She got good at these so we worked up to sit and stay. This week she even started ringing the bell on her own when she needs to go the bathroom. It looks like a call bell, so it is pretty cute when she pats down at it to ring. The first time she did it she pressed once and went #1. The next time she pressed it twice and went #2. She then pressed it once and went #1. Is she telling us what her business is going to be?! haha Justus says it is a coincidence, I say she is a Mensa puppy ;) She heard Justus come home when the garage door went up. She jumped off the couch and started smacking the bell like crazy. I guess she really wanted to see Justus- it was pretty cute!

Pretty proud of this lil pup for learning all these tricks by 10 weeks old. Whenever I get a treat she sits and just starts shaking. She LOVES shaking. Now, we just keep practicing all her tricks!

Puppy vs. Doorstop

I have quickly learned puppies live by the extremes. Extreme playing, extreme sleeping. Here are a few cute pics of these extremes. I was getting ready for work and didn't know where Orly was. I looked out and she was playing with the doorstop. Too funny!

First Vet Check and Bath

Orly had her first vet check at South Des Moines Veterinary Center. She had a great first visit with lots of cuddles, treats, and playtime. Lucky puppy didn't have to get poked because her breeder got it taken care of before we picked her up. We are so pleased with the vet we picked. They posted Orly's visit to their Facebook page- she is a little celebrity!
What is this new toy??
Orly loved the treat puzzle.

When leaving the vet Orly decided to sit in a big puddle. When we got home she had to have a bath to get the asphalt off her furry butt. She did ok during the bath, but the hair dryer was not her favorite. She got supper fluffy and clean though. I think the full day tuckered her out because she crashed with her lil tongue out that night. 
We made it through bath time.

Suns out, tongues out! 

Ridiculous place Orly decided to crash.
