Getting to be a big puppy

I was just gushing over Washburn today and realized I haven't posted many pictures of him lately. He may not be all grown up yet, but he's getting there. Today at the dog park I noticed he's nearly as tall as the female chocolate lab who visits everyday. When did he get so big? *I'll try to remember to take pics at the dog park tomorrow*



He's not even 6 months old yet and still squats to pee! But I guess I should have seen this coming. He has all of his adult teeth now (I keep forgetting to post the comparison picture of the puppy teeth vs the adult teeth) and is nearly 50 lbs. He doesn't have accidents inside the house anymore, and walks into his crate at the end of the day to let me know it's bed time.


Either way, his training is going really well. He ran to me today when I called him at the dog park (granted most of the dogs had left at this point, but still an improvement) he understands: sit, down, leave it, go get it, relax, enough, let's go, inside, up and drop it (sometimes).


We've started doing agility training around school playgrounds. Last week was March Break so Washburn and I would walk school to school and plat around the jungle gyms and get him used to paying attention to me at new places.

My Boo and his chew bone! Couldn't you just squish him?!?

  1. He goes to his crate without you telling him to when he's tired?! That's adorable!
    Awesome that you've been so diligent with his training. I've seen way too many big dogs whose owners just didn't bother and now tromp all over them. So major kudos to you!
