So he grew.... and grew.... and grew....

Colin seems bigger every time I pick him up nowadays - I weighed him today and he is 3.9kg! He is even starting to look like an adult dog sometimes which is quite weird considering he is 13 1/2 weeks old. He continues to be incredibly well behaved, I’m just waiting for it all to start going wrong ???

My jrt was( possibly I forgot through trauma!) never terrible. He grew up with two older, well behaved dogs and just copied them.

 

[EventingMum]

Oh, that face! As Blanche says he is probably taking his cues from the others and has plenty of interaction with them to keep him occupied and out of too much mischief.

I suppose Millie does terrorise him for most of the day, she hardly gives him any peace!

He went mad running around the dog field today ?

I have nothing sensible to add, he's adorably cute, and your photos are brilliant.

Aw, love the picture of him in the dog field.

You have trained all of them to behave, so he is growing up in an environment where that is the norm. Carry on as you are

**Sigh** He's cute from this angle, too.

Little dogs mature so much faster than big ones, don’t they. I couldn’t believe my daughter’s dachshund pup. A new experience for those of us see to bigger ones. 3kg, mine weigh 30! ?
Not really a small dog or a terrier fan as you know Levrier but you’re photos are cute, love the running in the field!

Don’t ever feel you are over posting pup pics,i really enjoy seeing the dynamics and Colin is adorable.I agree with the others,Colin has joined a stable ,safe pack and he’s thriving. I had so many naysayers when I said I was buying a schnauzer and not replacing my second standard poodle...yet ,like Colin,she’s slotted in and not put a foot wrong.
Your guesstimate of his adult weight was about eight kilos,so he’s on point.

There is indeed only one George, and I totally adore him more than words can say ????

Apart from last night when he woke me up every couple of hours because he thought he had a stomach upset and needed to go out ?? He would then go out in the rain, wander round the garden, come back in and demand to get back IN my bed under the duvet with me ???

 

[Parrotperson]

???. Awwwww. and wet terrier in your bed is a rite of passage. You are now officially a terrier owner par excellence! ??

 

[Quigleyandme]

Colin May have grown but he doesn’t fill his skin yet ? Actually, I no longer fill my skin ?

And, where else exactly, should a wet terrier go? Surely you understand he was only doing the correct thing according to terrier rules ??

George clearly thought so, I was too tired to argue ?

today’s most over-used phrase has been “Colin, will you stop.... well no, of course you won’t, you’re a puppy” as I retrieve a million and one things from where he has hidden them on his bed ? He really is the sweetest little nature, I do hope that never changes

I'm so glad he's bringing so much joy to you, I think his good nature will stay, none of ours have changed much from puppies.

As EventingMum says what else did you expect. I'm pleased to see George obeying the correct rules and obviously will be passing this on to Colin. If it's any consolation both of mine came in wet this morning from the garden and snuggled up one each side under the duvet.
Post as many pics as you can we all need a bit of light entertainment.
As for his nature - I'm on my third terrier, my son had one for 14 years, my daughter has a jrt x and everyone of them has a wonderful nature. So affectionate, so loving, - SO naughty .

I really want to post a pic of Colin’s Hole in The Lawn.... it’s huge!... but it’s difficult to get perspective on a photo ? I really must fill it in ?
