The monster puppy

Lucy is growing like a weed, and challenging us every day.  She is now over 50 pounds (but still very lean), and will be 4 months old soon (she was born December 7th)

I will be taking her for her final puppy shots soon (and microchipped), so we'll se how much she actually weighs now.  At 2 months, she was almost 26 lbs, then at 3 months, she was 47 lbs.  So, I'm guessing she is actually getting close to 60 lbs as she comes up on 4 months old.  This picture is actually about a month old, but it's hard to get a good picture of her - she likes to sleep 'under' things, and when she is up and about, she's hard to get to sit still!

This is the MOST social dog I have ever had.  People, dogs, cats, doesn't matter.  She wants to play/socialize with everybody!  It has it's drawbacks though - she probably won't be a great watchdog.  AND, she is hard to keep home!  We don't have a fenced yard and have a really hard time with tying a dog 'out'.  She spends most of her time in the house, but needs 'out' time.  I have been taking her to the dog park once or twice a week to socialize.  If it was up to her, she'd go everyday though, LOL.

She is a quick learner though - she does:
sit, shake, high 5, lay down, roll over, kisses, waves.  She does a small amount of fetch, but generally she's not real interested in that game.  She would much rather play tug-o-war :)  Getting her to 'come' is the biggest challenge, we need to work on that one more!
