Baby Tiff

When Tiffany came to Krisannrio, she was 8 weeks old ~ our own Shanti had a litter at the time of only 6 weeks old.

  We were a little concerned at how Shanti would be with Tiff, but we needn't have worried because Shanti adopted Tiff as one of her own, when our pups were old enough to go to their new homes, the one that we had kept, Laska bonded with Tiffany as sisters, it has been this way ever since and she still looks to Shanti as her Mum.

Tiffany shares a puppy gallery with Laska, it can be viewed here :-

Here is is getting a hug from Shanti and that is Laska next to her.... 

Here she is aged about 9 weeks and her ears have just started to get into poition to begin rising.

And again here, you can see only is slightly ahead of the other..

Gravity is on her side here as she tilts back her head, her ears go up !!

Here she is aged about 11 weeks and both ears are up, this is a comical stage for GSD ears as they tend to wear them like a teepee on top of their head for a while, they then begin to separate.

And here we have the classic 'teepee' !!

Tiff's ears went through their ups and downs during teething, but they were both upstanding until she was around 14 weeks.

Here she is 12 weeks, as you can see her ears are crossing over, again this is a normal stage of ear erection !!

Here she is at 13 weeks and as you can see they have lifted and separated !!

With Shanti and Laska, she adores Shanti...

Getting messy in the woods...

But then at around 14 weeks of age, she had the same trouble as Laska and the ears were up and down as she was teething, I was not concerned as both ears had already been up..

First one went down....

Then the other one joined it !!

By 16 weeks they were on their way back up again, nearly there...

Made it !!

You will notice she has hit a growth spurt and appears all legs, tail and ears !! Alot of her abundant puppy fluff has gone and the adult coat is starting to come in on her back.

Tiffany has a lovely, cuddly temperament, we call her the 'black pudding' because she is soooo laid back, she is a very friendly dog but can be quite lazy !! She doesn't 'do' retrieve !! On a walk she will quite happily plod by your side and leave the leggin it round to the loonies !!

Here she meets up again with Shanti's son Vadar, when he comes back to Krisannrio for a visit. Tiff is the one in the basket.

A very tired little Tiffers after a lovely afternoon playing with Vadar and Laska, Aw !! ..... 

Tiffany is being stood here by my friend Paula, notice all the puppy fluff has gone and she appears rather standard coated, this stage does not last and soon she will get and abundant adult coat.

The adult coat has begun to come through, you can see it forming glossy ripples down her back...
