Reubs has ceased to be a lovely easily managed puppy and become a varmint overnight , his inner demon has broken out ! Yesterday has was an angel , today he has not, in fact he has become the devil incarnate , nothing is spared from his lunacy and abject defiance , he has that cast in his eye , the one that says " I don't care " . He is so lovely when he is asleep xxxxx

 

[Boogie]

Aha - the teenager cometh!

 

[SwampDonkey]

But dont you just love that defiance and the fact that they trust you to take care of them and keep them safe despite them being little shits.

 

[Atemas]

Enjoy the sleeping times

You can go off people you know ! xx

 

[SwampDonkey]

Yep he's in the starting blocks for crazy. It's not a play bow, he's about to do his crazy teenage sprint to maturity.
Scream if you want to go faster

 

[HAH]

Little teenager Reuben! Despite the trials and tribulations, it's an absolute hoot watching them blossom - onto the next phase of fun and games!!

Is it ?? x

 

[SwampDonkey]

It's when you look at them and they look back and you see the depth of them and you think wow you are going to be some dog. I remember the excitement almost of looking at Rory and thinking yes you are that dog

 

[Jen]

you are going to be some dog.

I used to look at Stanley like are you even a dog?!

Or a gremlin?

Definitely didn’t dare feed him after midnight

I though that of the kids.
Can't remember thinking similar about Lilly......

Scream if you want to go faster

Ha ha! Love it!

 

[Lab_adore]

I'm waiting for it to end

 

[kateincornwall]

My late Lab girl Tess was a lunatic until she reached about 8 ! Sam became Captain Sensible at around 18 months , I can hope ! x
Honestly , he is asleep , half in and half out of his bed with his head on my foot , looking so angelic that I begin to think its just the odd bad day , then reality kicks in ! xx

 

[VanillaBean]

Enjoy, enjoy.
That is all I am going to say.

 

[Leanne]

Welcome to the club

 

[Granca]

Is he awake yet?!

 

[snowbunny]

Haha! I've been remarkably lucky with adolescence, I think. We had our moments (plenty of them) but in general, they remained lovely pups. It's a rite of passage, for sure, and I think it ends up bringing you closer as you start to really work each other out. It's an exciting time, as the adult dog starts to emerge from the puppy framework.

Spencer is either a sensible adult or a complete baby.

Yesterday evening I had to put the rope lead on him as he was being a nightmare with Tatze - then he chewed the rope lead like he did at 12 weeks old.
