Puppy Updates...

Today Rissy and Duke went to the vet for some shots. Luckily, our next door neighbor is a vet and owns a veterinary hospital right down the road! Rissy now weighs 27.7 lbs at 11.5 weeks old. She outweighs duke by about 4 pounds now! They are about the same height but Rissy is much thicker than Duke.

For Mother's Day, Duke, Rissy and I loaded up in the car and headed up to my parents house for the weekend. Rissy only slept about 30 mins on the way up. Duke is the BEST car dog ever. He always sleeps behind the drivers seat on the floor, no matter what car we are in. Below are a couple pictures from the ride home. Rissy slept all but 10 mins and Duke was great. They were so tuckered out this is how they were sleeping in the car! We had a great weekend visiting with everyone and they were exciting to meet Rissy. That Saturday we went over to my sisters house and brought the dogs. I wanted to see if Rissy would swim in their lake. I had to push her in a little and she did great swimming back. The water was so cold I didn't want to force her to swim too much.

This weekend we are headed out to Loon Lake for a weekend of camping with Colin's sisters, brother in law and nephew. We are leaving Duke to play with Bella at Colin's parents house and Rissy is coming along for some camping fun. Hopefully she'll prove to be a good swimmer! Hope everyone has a great Memorial Day!
