What we have seen so far

The cuddler, happiest being carried around by Tom, and the most people-focused puppy on the seven-week test. Brindle and white with a white blaze. Week 7 evaluation: retrieved the paper ball twice, slightly sound-sensitive (startled at the umbrella, recovered in about four seconds). Reserved by a family in Rhinebeck with two children aged 10 and 13, who visited at five and eight weeks. Pet home, limited registration.

Weighed every Monday morning, before breakfast
