Ellie May: Piper x Deacon Puppy Report

Ellie May

This little dynamo has already been swimming, has been practicing stacking, and all kinds of other activities! And she shows very promising movement!

From her mom and dad: Ellie May came into our life with a giant burst of energy and love. We are convinced she has no fear and due to that we are constantly having to keep an eye on her to keep her out of trouble. Her favorite toy is a soft pheasant with squeakers. She has been getting better in her crate every day, even sleeping through the night! We’ve only had one accident and hope to continue that success.

She has been everything we wanted and more. She has amazing focus and desire to please. She is incredibly driven and we can’t wait to see how that drive develops in the future for sports. We exposed her to her first Chukar wing last week and to say she was obsessed is an understatement.

When Ellie goes anywhere she demands attention and just soaks it all up! Her tail is constantly wagging and she takes any opportunity to give people kisses. We hope this spunky friendly attitude continues into the show ring. We’ve been doing daily stack practice and she is more than happy to participate.

 
 
 
 
 
 

 

Overall, we couldn’t be happier to own another Forest Lakes puppy!
