Finally saw theses pix Betty!!
I cant believe there's 30 lbs difference between them but a good sidebyside pix of them standing might show the difference better.
7 months old hmmmm sorta the terrible 2's when it comes to dogs,this is when bad habbits become a problem and the perfect time to assert your authority over the boys. They'll learn quick and be keen to do whatever you ask,take advantage of this and teach them any tricks or routines NOW!
At this age,if in the wild,they'd be going with the adults on the hunt.This makes them easy to train and work,over the next 6 months you'll see the developement of their personalities as they become more confident and mature.This is the prime age to "teach" them to be how you want as adults.
Those 2 boys must be eating you outta house and home,that will get somewhat better as the will need alittle less food once they stop growing,but that can be up till the age of 2 as these dogs are slow to mature fully.
They look like a couple of couch potatoes but dont let that fool you,as you know Stuka has shown what he's capable of and having 2 to control can be overwhelming so no need to encourage that.
keep the pix comming,I cant wait to see Stuka when he's grown.
glad u finally seen these morf,
stuka and tank are cool dogs, tank has always got the dazed and confused look on his face but stuka is very smart. u can tell tank looks up to him, he is always right beside stuka. stuka is spoiled, hes my baby of course but tank isn't as lovable as stuka is, he is a follower.
one thing im havin issues with is that when people come over they want to jump up and lick them to say hi, and im tryin hard to keep them from doin that, specially to kids cuz they will knock them over easily. tank is always licking, it drives me nuts! hes settled down on it since i tell him to stop licking and then he will for a few seconds so i give him a treat and praise him. so hes catchin on slowly hehe. stuka squishes me. i dont have the heart to tell him hes not a lap dog no more, hes just so cute and is always looking for approval in anything he does. he tries really hard not to disappoint me he dont like hearin "bad boy stuka". he will drop his head and of course try to suck up to me when he has done somethin ...like chew up my earnhardt beany bear...they are both great entertainment as you can see by the pics, i will take more in the next couple days, i think i might have some with them playin tug of war with their toy, sometimes they lay on their backs with feet in the air playin tug of war or tank will just lay down and stuka will drag him around with the toy in both their mouths..its really funny!
the food situation isn't too bad, could be worse i suppose, i go through a 15lb bag of dog food each week between them, they love the chicken and rice gravy train, and its fairly inexpensive. stuka's chest from shoulder to shoulder is about 16" wide, and he is about 2 1/2' tall from the floor to his back, and bout 4 1/2' when he stands on his hind legs. hes gonna be a big boy, i can't wait for him to grow up to an adult dog, tank is much smaller than stuka, but hes still workin on gaining weight now that he is being taken care of the way he should be. i will try to post more pics in the next couple days of them. im glad yall are enjoyin watchin my puppies grow up, i know i am!
