Morning all. Just thought I'd write a post and update on Lola as its been quite a while now. Things have been great really. Everything in the house is still intact with nothing damaged. She is mostly off lead when there are no distractions about. Loves cuddles (big time) from anyone and everyone. Gets overly excited, lies on her back and doesn't stop wriggling, kicking her legs, licking, grunting, snorting whenever u come home from work/being out as if she hasn't seen u before. Still has a crazy half hour in the evening where the house/furniture is used as her own agility course and running track. Doesn't leave my 7yr old daughters side which is cute. All in all, she has brought us loads of happiness. I have a couple of questions. 1) When is her head going to grow? At the minute, she has a stocky chest with a pea head and ears that look too big, 2) she is now fed 3 times a day. When should I cut this to 2? Thanks in advance, and it's good to be back.

Hi Matty , great to see everything is working well for you and sounds like you have a little star Big Grin
In answer to your questions
1) They all grow at different rates and in different order , Tommy's head is really developing now and he is filling out too 14 months , I think you should see some significant changes over the next 6 months.
2) At 6 months old she is fine to move onto 2 meals a day

Thanks everyone. Yeah she is great. I suppose for us, the worst thing of puppyhood has to have been biting us hoomans! Scratches and punctured skin and ruined clothes. But with perseverance and following advice it quickly stopped. I'd like to think we have done a great job with raising Lola so far, but without advice and reassurance from you guys, I think it would if been a lot more difficult. So thanks.

Glad to hear Lola is doing so well! Thanks for the update! Gwen also still has a crazy half hour when she turns into a loon running up and down the length of the apartment. I agree the biting is the worst/ most difficult part of puppyhood. Gwen has gotten a lot better with this but still sometimes does when she gets overly excited so credit to you and lola for having that completely under control.
