five months old

Yesterday our boy turned 5 months. I can’t believe how much he’s changed since the very first day we brought him home when he was just one day short of 8 weeks. Just look how tiny he was!

The difference is crazy, isn’t it?! He can be so much fun but also a lot of work. But I have to admit things are getting much better and easier with him.

Ace at the age of five months:

• is loosing his puppy teeth every single day
• he runs with us leash free (trail runs with Ivo – the longest one was 10km so far and runs on dykes with me, usually around 6km)
• he loves to cuddle
• every morning after I take him outside he waits when I take his collar off and then he sprints upstairs and jumps into our bed and cuddles with Ivo
• he has amazing sense of smell, he is sniffing in the kitchen all the time
• he has tried “counter surfing”
• he can’t have any flush toys or fabric ones, he destroys them in just few minutes
• he is too excited when he sees people and want to greet them with jumps and kisses (we have to work on this one)
• when he is tired he just decides not to listen to anyone
• he loves to play
• the color of his eyes is greenish/greyish/golden now, I’m so in love with the color
• his fur has gotten darker in the fall

He has been with us for more than 3 months now and I can’t imagine not having him around anymore.

He is definitely a part of our family.
