[PyrNet-L] Leo is growing!

[AMOMKate@aol.com]

In the past few days, Leo has seemed to mature just the tiniest bit. He is 
sleeping longer, he is a bit less likely to jump up and/or mouth my kids 
(although I would still never leave them alone together), today he sought out 
his crate and went in there to rest by his own choice for the first time (in 
fact he is in there right now with the door open), and this morning he 
actually chased a dog toy for a little while. (Although Leo is very playful, 
he has shown scant interest in any games of fetch or ball bouncing, so this 
was a first....)

I'm curious as to when those of you who raise puppies see your dogs sort of 
"turn the corner" in terms of moving away from lots of adolescent behavior. I 
know with our former bull terrier some years ago (the only other pup I have 
raised from babyhood), he was still VERY adolescent at 24 months...
