Mingus’ third month has proven to be monumentous, funny and packed with huge developments.
What we noticed at three months...
1. He began to pant/smile.
2. Unlike, my prior theory, he can hold his bladder for up to seven hours!
3. He is beginning to hump.
4. He’s becoming extremely loyal. He doesn’t like not knowing where we are 5. He’s developing a personality.
6. He can go for regular 15 minute walks. Although he wouldn’t pee on them at first, he does now!
7. He knows routines and feeding schedules.
8. He’s losing his teeth and therefore partaking in a few bad habits. He loves shredding paper.
9. No matter what, he sleeps after midnight through the morning...even if he just slept all evening.
10. He has lots of energy…especially after a nap.
11. He tends to be very playful yet very dominant around other dogs. Maybe its because he’s smaller, maybe because he hasn’t been neutered yet. Either way he never backs down.
12. He has mastered all of the basic commands and loves a challenge!
13. He loves….LOVES hide and go seek.
14. He know the difference between my fiancee and I’s personalities and what he can get from who
Training at the three months...
1. He has a longer attention span.
2. He gets the difference between rewarding with a treat and rewarding with praise and will perform accordingly…lol
3. He loves a challenge…. Searching for the ball…searching for you.
4. He can differentiate between toy, ball and bone for retrieving
5. He can make eye contact and focus
6. If a certain trick has a sequence, he will jump our commands or even the sequence to get the treat.
7. He is currently working on wave, hide, limping and roll over.
