31 days, cuddly puppies

As much as this litter loves to play, they also love to cuddle. They cuddle with each other, with their mom, with us and even with their toys. I had a hard time choosing pictures, so again there are extra pictures on the puppy's individual pages. Also I thought I'd write a bit about each of their personalities as they have continued to develop and we have done stress tests. Stress tests are when we put the puppy in a situation where it feels uncomfortable. Things like loud music being placed next to them, being set on cold tile floors, and even baths and hair cuts can cause a puppy to be fearful.

Energetic go getter, when he gets tired he loves to come up to me and cuddle. When he sees us standing above his box he will put his paws up on the box to be picked up. Still wiggles his tail faster and more frequently than any puppy I have ever seen. Does really well with stress tests and is very eager to explore the world around him.

Extremely calm puppy, during stress tests she looks around then lays down and goes to sleep, I haven't ever seen her get stressed about a situation. She is very loving and cuddly and likes to bark at her litter mates.

Very curious, loves to explore new things. She is outgoing and will chase us around the floor for more attention. She loves to paw at things then back up and stick her bum in the air to signal she wants to play. When she first experiences stressful situations she watches for a minute until she feels safe, and then becomes curious.

Calm demeanor, reminds us the most of his dad because of his cuddly side. He is also playful and fun with us and loves to swat, romp and growl. He is very intelligent, which shows in his potty training, he becomes frantic when he not in the potty box and needs to go. He is the most potty trained of all the puppies and we haven't seen him have an accident in days. He is very calm when stress is applied and loves water and lays down for his baths and brushings. 

Very calm little girl, but she likes to use her voice. She growls at her litter mates, barks at her mom when she wants to be fed, and barks at us to be picked up. Very funny personality. She gets a little bit nervous when stress is applied, but eventually becomes curious.

We are still working on acclimatizing her to loud noises. She interacts well with her litter mates as well as the other dogs in the house. Is very cuddly and eats up human interaction. As we have gotten her more used to stressful situations she has gotten more curious.

Mr. Personality, he already walks with a proud schnauzer stance and loves to be the center of attention. He is very curious about anything that is new, especially music. He has even tried to wrestle with the adult dogs in the house. His pictures were a little bit tricky today because once he wakes up he doesn't stop moving!
