Little Coal is growing up - he went with me to straight racing today and got to be pet and cuddled by many people. He chilled in his expen and observed people and dogs running (and screeching), and enjoyed sunbathing and sleeping on his stuffy.
He was quite noisy on the ride up and mad he was confined to the kennel, but on the ride home he was quiet as a mouse. He was exhausted! Lots of exposure today and he took it all in stride with a happy attitude.
6 weeks 4 days today. Over 10lb already 😅
Next event is lure coursing Thanksgiving weekend; I think I'll let him actually truly touch the grass and see if he likes the lure. He certainly likes chasing that sheepskin tug. His maternal grandparents did lure coursing for fun.
I also scrolled back on my page and realized I never gave an update. Beulah was pregnant with a singleton only - this sweet, happy boy. He was born via planned c-section on Sept 23.
