Fending Off the Big Guys

Yes, we are still small but mighty. We will probably be like our mom but our growth curve is different than Stormy's crew. We are slow and steady and we will most likely grow later. They will most likely stop growing earlier.
When there is a size difference you have to worry about bullies. Yes, sometimes one or more are sewing their oats so to speak. It's not because they have a mean streak in them. Most times it's just that they are learning their position in the pack.
But in this gang they seem to not have that issue. Oh yes occasionally one gets too rough and the recipient turns away and they go okay. This is how they learn and so far they seem to be listening when one says I had enough. There is one boy in the Stormy crew that is not a submissive but even he respects the boundaries. This set of 10 is a good crew. I can only hope the next we mesh are the same.
Check out the gallery of all 10.
Friday they get their first bath. Oh boy. We need Cinnamon to cooperate.

Wow, Darlah and Nathan, you have so very much happening all at once soon. But, don’t you always? Good luck all. 🐶🐶
Yeah didn't need heats at the moment
Raven’s boy ( photo 8551) makes me think of Envy. I love this age!
Gerda: Looked at 8551 - 2 Stormy boys wrestling?
8511cant type.. lol I think it’s the exhaustion of puppy sitting the 5mo sheltie
Yes, I agree, Gerda. Good eye.
PS: poor you and a 5 month Sheltie. It will keep you young!
Oh yes, I forgot about the heats, oy, please take care of yourselves. We all need you.
