Week Eight:

Arti is the cutest puppy - he is just happy happy.  He takes a little while to get used to new situations but adjusts quickly and then seems to embrace all things new.  He started out slowly exploring the yard, then I had to follow him because he was everywhere.  He is doing extremely well, and is going to be a really hard one for me to let go.  He has new fantastic parents though, and they are not too far so I will get the occasional visit in to this special boy I'm sure.

Week Six:
Happy happy Arti, he is doing great, and just loved it outside, he played and played and then fell asleep for an hour.  Didn't get as many pictures of him as I would have liked, he was too busy having fun, but I got some good ones.  Arti is mid to high in the pack - smart, loving, playful, another great puppy who seems to love the lap.

Week Five:

Arti has personality, he seems to just be so happy all the time.  He has a lovely thick coat, and he was in the mood for picture taking today.    He is very loving, enjoys his humans but is also playing a lot with all the puppies.  Not phased by the big dogs at all, even when he tried to nurse of Tux and was told in no uncertain terms THAT WAS NOT going to happen. 

It's funny I didn't notice until the pictures today his cute tail markings

Week Four:

Still the piggy boy.  He and Lilly are first to the food bowl.  Arti is a pretty laid back boy, plays with all the puppies but is not pushy or alpha at this point.  He was pretty comfortable with all the new sounds and dogs in the living room, good confidence.  Probably middle to low in pack.  I love his face, it is going to be stunning when he has full coat.  I think he has intelligent eyes. He is also a cuddler, not quite as much as Skittles but he enjoys it.

Week Three:

Arti is still the big PIG of the family, although Draco is catching up fast.  He is a very sweet boy even at 3 weeks he likes to be picked up and sucks my finger.  He was not in the mood for pictures this week though he just wanted to threaten to fall off the couch for every shot.  He would not keep still so pictures a little out of focus.  Look at the lovely face markings though.

Week Two:

Here is Arti.  He is doing just great, doubled his weight by 10 days and eating like a little piggy.  I'm trying to get a good face shot and good marking shot of all the puppies.  He's such a cutie pie.  Doug calls him saddle boy.

Week One:

I love Arti's markings, he has a black saddle on this back and just great face markings.  He was in a great mood for picture taking considering I woke him up.
