Oscar is a happy-natured boy with a fun and playful spirit and a love for snuggles. He adores people and enjoys playing with toys, a perfect blend of snuggly yet ready for playtime! His happy nature makes him a great fit for a family with children or a someone looking for an affectionate companion fitting in with an active family.
Oscar is learning all the right things for his age, including:
resting quietly in his crate for up to seven hours
ringing the potty bell to go out
using the litter box and doggie door to keep living space clean and potty free
coming when called
walking up and down stairs
walking on the leash willingly
working on impulse control against jumping on people and furniture
We are now four weeks old and this has been a big week! Our eyes are now fully open and we are beginning to respond to Marisa and Chasedy when they take us through our daily training. A litter box has been added to our nursery room and we are already searching it out to go potty in! We also finished up our Neurological Stimulation exercises and have started the next phase of our training and conditioning. Holding, cuddling and walking around during this development stage helps us to learn to be secure when being carried and handled.
At 21 days our ears began to open and we can now hear. We don’t know much about science but research says that during the first week of hearing puppies have very little startle response to loud noises so Janet makes sure to take advantage of this time to begin conditioning us to accept these noises while we are eating. Doing something pleasant while we hear, startle and recover conditions us to ignore the scary noises that we will encounter in our future life. Daily sound conditioning will continue at each of our meals until we go home to our new family. We are getting used to hearing:
The sound of a running vacuum, force blow dryer and clippers
Slamming doors, gates and dropped objects
Honking horn and running car
Thunder, wind storm,
Lawn mower, power saw, buzzers, bells
Children playing, thumps, babies crying
We also just had our first bath and trim! Early exposure to water, blow dryers, and clippers is an important step in our socialization process, helping us to become confident and comfortable with grooming from a young age.
We’re thankful that our trainers provide these positive early experiences to set the foundation for well-adjusted companions - whether we’re destined for therapy work or as a beloved family member. Enjoy the video below of the puppies eating, aren’t we just adorable!
Over the past week, we have really gained a lot of healthy weight and are starting to crawl around. Marisa and Chasedy have finishing up our Early Neurological Stimulation exercises and we are responding very well! Each day we accept the exercises a little bit better, giving us the perfect start towards developing a temperament that can go in whatever direction you need, whether it be for therapy, diabetic/seizure alert or as an excellent family companion.
