TRAKKER’S TAIL: Another Milestone

by Randy and Christy Oetken

TRAKKER had another milestone yesterday. He lost his very first tooth.

The problem is he’s really terrible at posing for photographs. It’s just TOO MUCH FUN to play with his “people” and those shiny black “chew toys” they hold in their hands. Too much temptation for puppies who like to play! (And by the way, he is a little perturbed that they took the tooth away from him, too…)

So here are the only two halfway decent photos we did manage to capture to memorialize his special moment. “Sitting” is almost too much to expect a little guy to do. Scampering around, climbing on his people, kisses and playing “chase” are MUCH MORE FUN than “Sitting” and “Staying”. What’s a puppy to do??

TRAKKER’S TAIL: First Hair Cut

by Randy and Christy Oetken

TRAKKER experienced a couple more of his “Firsts” this week. On Monday, he got his first hair cut and met another one of his new “Humans”, Corinna Orr, his groomer.
(Incidentally, if you’re looking for a great Dog Groomer, we highly recommend Corina’s Dog Grooming.)

Corina gave TRAKKER an A+ for being a Good Boy during his grooming. He even got a new scarf to commemorate the big day!

Christy likes the hair cut (Corina has groomed the Oetkens’ dogs for YEARS) but he doesn’t look like a puppy any more. A little sad…

Anyway, here are the “Before” and “After” photos:
