He is gorgeous. Can't wait to see more pics of him.
Thanks he is a real character, I think it shows in his face!George has such a cute face! I love his wrinkles and expressions
Thanks: He is putting on about 2.5 kilos a week. He is quite solid and just starting to sprout legs!He looks good. Looks like he is at just about the time he will be packing on a pound or more a week. Let the fun begin!

When we were socializing and exercising our dog we watched him closely. In the beginning it was probably around 15 mins -/+.
The one thing I read that I watched closely for was Gus waking up stiff or sore. Their muscles and bones can grow faster then their tendons and ligaments. If they are showing signs of this don't let them over extend as this may cause damage or future problems.
There were days I had to walk away from the park so Gus would not run. I explained to the other owners why he could not interact with their dogs but I still felt as if they thought I was just being over protective. Maybe I was but later if some problems do occur I can have a clear mind that I did all I could.
I am wondering if this is classed as soft ground or only grass or sand?
George is much happier and more well behaved generally after a walk in the glen but I don't want to be doing him any damage.
That would definitely be considered soft ground, and I would not worry. This warning is for city dogs that generally go out on concrete sidewalks and tarmac. You'll know when he's overdone it - he'll show signs and then you can back off. The activity of being outside following you around, smelling new smells, seeing new sights and animals is very good for him.
Thanks he is a lovely pup. Just coming on great and has a fabulous nature.What a handsome pup! Looking forward to watching him grow...
