Ryder Update

Sorry guys for the lack of posting! Since I got Ryder I really have had no time to sit down and do a good update. So today I finally did and I have a lot of info over the week in a half I have had him. He is such a mellow puppy, does not mouth on people, not really a chewer, sometimes a good little walker, and has slept through the night 4 nights in a row!  He has had about 3 accidents in the house or kennel some of which being my fault, but most of the time he can go for an hour or so without going potty. 
Ryder`s first night home, exploring his surroundings and all the toys. As you will see later in this post he has grown a lot! 
His first weekend was spent at home and just running around outside. This picture makes me laugh because I have one of just like it only it was Focus and he was a little bit older. 

Sorry this picture was supposed to be at the end of my post, but it ended up being right here. This is a picture of Ryder`s name embossed on my leash, something I mentioned in my last post that I had done at Fun Day. I think it looks really good. I would have taken a picture of all 3 names, but you would have not been able to see the embossing. 
Last Friday, we went up to the Reno Aces Baseball game. We had it planned for about 2 months, so we knew we would have a puppy. We went there knowing we might have to leave if Ryder was freaked out by all the noise but he ended up sleeping through the entire game! We left in the 8th inning because we knew the fire works would be way to loud for him. Overall I was very happy with how he handled it and only being 2 months!

This weekend my family and I went up to Lake Tahoe as a last outing before school kinda thing. I decided to take Ryder. We just shopped around at the Heavenly Stores and it was great. Ryder walker 50% percent of the time and was carried the reset. I was really happy with him, he had no accidents, no major issues in the stores, and just behaved himself.

As you can see, he is such a bad dog while at dinner. 
On Sunday the day before school we went shopping up at the summit mall. We were maybe there 3 hours but since it`s an outdoor mall it`s easy to potty a dog. He was very good while I bought shoes, clothes, and my favorite purchase a Macbook, which I love! 
In this picture he looks a lot bigger then he does in the first picture! Why do all puppies have to grow up so fast?!

P.S. On a Focus note, he will not show up on the phase report for a while because he is in breeder evaluations. So when GDB decides to breed him I will know, or if they neuter him he will just show up on the phase report.
