Taking photos of puppies is so hard, the good ones have much better things to do. He really ate up the jute at SchH club today. Barking and pulling, lunging and grabbing...........maybe they would have been better photos to take.
During obedience, the dogs in class were asked walk over a blue tarp that was layed out on the ground. Some dogs pretended it wasn't there, some dogs were afraid of it, Hero wanted to KILL, KILL, it. When it was his turn a gust of wind came up and the pup just loved jumping and attacking.....Those would have been great pictures.
In a AG barn close by a girl was getting her heffer ready for a show. Once again it was interesting to see the different reactions of the different dogs as they walked by (about 15' away). I asked if it was OK, and let Hero go close the bovine, Well, he and the heffer engaged in a mutual lickey face thing. Neither one were afraid, and Hero was not agressive. What a funny pup.
He seems to be a well rounded puppy, not realy afraid of, nor agressive towards anything. He's been exposed to skateboards, scooters, motorcycles, car horns, other dogs, cats, kids of all ages, loud noises. He is afraid of one thing, his toenails trimmed and it usually takes about 3 of us to hold him down. I have not quicked so I don't know where this fear comes from...........
I will be patient about his stages of puppy hood, and will try to stack him better, and will try to find 3 people the next time I try to take stacked photos........Thanks for all the pointers........

Where on EARTH do you get that idea? I HAVE conformation dogs!
I don't have eyes for working dogs...unless by working you mean functional.
Personally I think you're just mad because you asked what people thought and I didn't immediately faun over him and go "OMG!!! GORGEOUS! HE'LL BE THE NEXT SIEGER!!11!1!!!!"
I was honest with what I saw. I did not rip him apart, only commented on what I saw, and I also posted POSITIVE things about your puppy. If you don't want a critique on your puppy, don't ask for one.
You more than happily jumped to the side of the people that had absolutely nothing negative to say about your boy though, which is not an objective stance.
