The whole litter got back together for a play date!
That’s Niles with my hand on his nose. He is still available. After being the smallest male at birth, he is now the largest. He weighs 54 lbs on his 4m birthday.
At 4 months, GSD puppy ears need to be carefully evaluated. Frasier/Günther’s ears had been up and down, and because Aimee lives near DC, we decided to save her a trip and do it now. Best case scenario, the tape can stay on for 2 weeks, and Aimee can see great ears after that. She was instructed to check the ears daily to make sure air is getting inside the ear and for any signs of infection. The tape has to stay dry, so she has to be dedicated to using an umbrella if necessary to take him out. He didn’t seem to mind the taping. Afterwards, he shook his head a couple of times and said, “Whatever!No problem.”
