Puppy Pictures: 18 Weeks Old

Jemma Jane is 18 weeks old today!  She is loving life and would run in the backyard for hours if we let her.  Doesn’t she look happy in this photo?  Jemma is turning into such a great dog – that English Springer Spaniel sweet disposition is definitely coming out in her.

I have written before about how when preparing for our puppy, we did alot of reading about puppy training and care.  One of the books that we picked up for the kids is The English Springer Spaniel, which is part of a series of dog breed books by Terra-Nova.  It gave alot of insight into the history and handling of the breed.  It also came with a helpful DVD which the kids really enjoyed.
