Day 68 Chinook Centennial Litter Pup-date

The night was very short. Everyone had to be up and packed and ready to leave at 0600 for the flight back to Juneau.
The official last morning 2 puppy wake-up howl.

I had to leave for a few hours to do some winter prep-chores. When I came back I found that Washington had significantly rearranged the whelping condo.

He looks so alone.

Waiting for the big dogs to come play with him.

Washington is 21 lbs and has outgrown his puppy collar so I took him to PetSmart for socialization; to see if he could still squeeze into a flight Sherpa bag; a new harness and; to ride in a car. PetSmart was having a pet adoption event. Several people tried to adopt him from me.
Socialization - check

 Sherpa bag - check

 new harness - check.

Car ride - check though he was quite vocal about the experience.

When we got back, we worked on leash walking while the big dogs checked out the PetSmart smells and new harness.

His end of the leash was also strutted about but I only caught pictures when he was using it as a chew toy.

Handsome in his new harness and evening sunlight.

Washington amazed me. I was expecting another sleepless night. But, other than joining in the nightly 11 p.m. howl-in he was quiet until the morning when he initiated a BrownStone Pack howl-in. The boy loves to sing.
