Meet Sienna

Peek-A-Boo!
Sienna is lovely. Like most puppies Sienna loves to chew, play bite, chase her tail and steal things to play with and she still doesn’t like her collar.
She is pretty much house trained already, only had 5 inside accidents in the two weeks we’ve had her. She always comes when I call her, quite a mummy’s girl, always under my feet. We’re sleeping her in a crate like yours (only smaller) which she likes. She sleeps through the night till 530am.
I think she might be a talker because she lets us know if she wants something by using her voice, not a growl but just a noise. Although only twice when I have had to go out has she cried when I left, the other times she settles straight away.
She’s still hesitant when meeting new people but we have exposed her to many different people since day one, so I’m not worried. I took her to meet our vet and she fell asleep on the table she was so calm. We took her to meet Harry (Elaine’s pup) and they got on great, Harry was very keen to play. Sienna has met the other dogs in our family and they also got along fine, Sienna was hesitant at first but soon was chasing around after them.
I’m really looking forward to taking her out to puppy training and for walks once she’s had the next lot of needles. She travels really well in the car, settles immediately. She’s good with the kids but she tends to jump up and play bite them alot so they’re trying not to over excite her and they’re continuing with the dominating technique you showed us (she doesn’t struggle at all when Pete or I do it now).
She really is a dream! I’m going to give her a bath today so we’ll see how that goes.
