Hi. Charlie my baby boy who will be 11 mnths on Jan 22, seems to have found some independence and mommy isn't too happy about it!
He never goes upstairs without me or goes downstair whn I am upstairs..NEVER..until today..He went upstair to get a bone.. without me!
I wonered if he was ill or something, he never does that.. he looked at me like I was insane!
Then at the dog park... I am never out of his view..even when playing with other dogs..but today he actually went a fair distant from me while he was playing with his friend boxer girl.. it took him a good 10 mins to realise he wasn't a few feet away then came running to me,,but still ..Mind you the girl is a red brindle boxer pup who is stunnning.
Whats happening with charlie.. is he at the age where he wants to be a big boy?
Then
Now
I think he is taking his first steps
and becoming a big boy, just more confortable that you will be there when he needs you,
