Getting to know each other

Now the puppies are home we have started to get to know them and their personalities. They were both very very shy at first and did an awful lot of sleeping (photos will follow soon of them being adorable and asleep), but now they have grown into their own little personalities 🙂

Socks is fairly independent and not as needy as Magic. He loves his tummy being rubbed but does not like being cuddled. He likes to sit on our lap and go to sleep, but will not tolerate cuddles and baby cradling. He is very licky and we think he is teething, he loves chewing on a frozen toy though or an ice cube (we were told this would help sooth his gums). Socks took to the puppy pad training very very quickly and the praise and fuss worked very well for him. We are very proud of this little boy and looking forward to how his personality grows as he gets older 🙂

Magic is like a little teddy bear, he loves his cuddles and will be cradled like a baby (as seen below). He is a lot more whiney than Socks and wants to be played with and cuddled all the time. We have had to stop holding him all the time though because he was getting into the routine of sleeping on us and then playing when not. and then refusing to sleep when not on us… so we had to encourage him to sleep in their beds. Bless him.

They really do have beautiful personalities which I hope you will get to know them too through reading this blog. They really are special little boys xxx
