Finn's First Trim
Finn's fur was growing all over his face and butt so I took him to the groomers for a quickie trim.
Finn's First Bath
Finn's fur is growing so fluffy and he's picking up all the "debris" from the rolling around in the yard.
We gave him a bath in the kitchen sink.
And then wrapped him in a big towel.
He wasn't too happy about it but he did smell fresher afterwards!

Funn with Finn
We've had our new puppy Finn for 4 weeks now. He is officially 3 months old (13 weeks).
He's settling in nicely with our family routine and is now at that biting/nipping stage that all puppies get to when they are tired/playful/teething etc.
We are trying to correct this behaviour but it's so difficult (and painful).
He has learned a lot in the short time we've had him.
He knows how to sit and wait for his food bowl to be put down.
He is sleeping through the night - wakes up at 6am for a pee break but then goes back into his crate for a few more hours of sleep.
His favourite sleeping spot is inside the family room ottoman.
Or curled up in his bed with a favourite stuffy.
He is getting used to him name Finn but at first he was coming to "good boy" even when we said it to Murphy.
He is not a fan of walking on leash and gets tired easily.

Meet Finnegan aka "Finn"
We are so pleased to announce a new addition to our family....FINN!!!
Finn is an Irish Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier - just like our other dog Murphy.
Here is a pic of both dogs together
Even though Finn has a lighter face than most Wheaten puppies his coat will still lighten up a lot.
It's hard to believe that Finn will one day look "wheaten" like Murphy.
Here's Murphy as a puppy - he was much darker in the face and body than Finn.
Finn comes to us from Karen Christian (ChristianDoodles.com) in Alberta.
Karen was so good at keeping in touch (text) and sending us photos of the puppies as they were growing.
Since Finn was coming to us from so far we trusted her to pick out the right puppy for us.
He's only been with us for over a week now but he's a perfect fit for our family and we love him!!!
