Danny - Coco/Silas 2018

Good morning Stephanie.  I hope you and the baby are getting along well and are both healthy. Good day for snugglin’;  damp and cold outside.

Danny had his 2nd check up and as suspected he is one mighty fine healthy pup!  Our vet, has all four Snitker dogs (Piper, Opie, Keeley, and Danny). He made a comment AGAIN today - “these Snitker pups are really specials guys." I thought you would like to hear his compliment. At one day shy of 13 wks. Danny weighed in at 31.7#. Our vet said he’s going to be a big boy. You should see his THICK legs!!  He still has a trim waist - so vet said his weight is fine. We have made it thru the night without having to go outside for about a week now.  He gets his dinner about 4:30.  He plays with us til about 8-8:30 and goes to bed in his pen.  Don takes him out between 11-11:30 and from that point sleeps with the pack free in our bedroom.  He knows his routine because he runs down the hall to our bedroom. 

Danny has been quicker to investigate sounds and movement than Opie was at this age.  His personality seems more assertive - but in such a sweet way.  He will easily sit on command, come by his name and “say hello” (shake paw).  He LOVES baths!  Yeah!

He is a pro at snugglin’  Again, the right dog for the right family.  Rhonda has an excellent sense for matching these little guys with us big guys.  Ha!

​Our boys are inseparable.  This weekend is Don’s last church service and we begin a new chapter called retirement. I couldn’t imagine going forward without our guys.
Love, love love my boys. Don asked if he was “one of the boys.”  Yup, love you too Don. I know Danny is Coco’s first litter so I’ll periodically send you pictures. 

Greet Rhonda for me!
