Just a little background. I live in Milwaukee, My mom lives in Buchanan, MI. The drive is about 3 or 3.5 hours depending on the Chicago traffic of course. These last few pics of of Miles in the back seat sleeping. He looked so cute, so I was snapping pics left and right while driving in downtown chicago trying to get the perfect pic. Then after about the 10th one I got "the look." hahaha

Oh my gosh those are great!  I especially love the last pic in the second post, of Miles and the GSD walking away side my side.  I think that one's frame worthy also!  Wow, it looks like you had some great fun out there, I too love the little goats!  I think they're one of my fav animals! :D

Awwww, he's growing up so fast!  What a gorgeous big boy he's become!  I love the snow pics and that last "c'mon, knock it off now, Mom" pic is so cute & so typical!  Mine get really fed up with the flash pretty fast.  It looks like he had a great time with that gorgeous GSD, the goats, ducks, chickens & all.  He must love to go visit Grandma!

Oh my goodness, what a handsome boy. He's so big, too! He looks much much bigger than Sam, who is 7.5  months. I guess pyrs do tend to be bigger than berners, though. He also looks really pretty calm, though of course I may not be getting the whole story from pictures!

Is it Miles' actual birthday today??? The reason I ask is it's Tobeys 8 month today - that would just be too much of a coincidence.


Close!! It was yesterday. :)


Awwww, he's growing up so fast!


Too fast!! I swear it was just yesterday that I was carrying him around like a little baby! He's really gotten huge. When Miles was about 5 months old, the vet said he thought he would be a relatively small pyr, around 80-90 pounds....well he sure showed him! It was like, after he said that, he shot up 20 pounds since the last vet visit and has been growing like a weed since!!! I'm curious to wonder what the horse weighs these days. :D ;D


Glad everyone enjoyed the pics. I'm still trying to figure out this video thing. I'll get it eventually. I dont know how great the video is anyway. He was more interested in eating the goat poop than the actual goats. ::)

I can't get over the size of him. When did he get sooo big? He is just beautiful. I keep thinking back to the pics of when he was sick and had his leg partiallly shaved. He was so tiny then. Yous hsould post a before and after pic of him. Actullly that would be a fun thread to start....Befor e and after pics of our pups. Hmmmm.

So is Miles a year old now? about how much does he weigh?
He is just gorgeous!
Was he already acquainted with the GSD?

Miles is 8 months old. He was born the end of June of 2007.
I'm not sure how much he weighs now. I'm assuming about 90-95 pounds. Maybe more. Last time he was at the vet, he weighed about 85 pounds and that was a little over a month ago.

It took quite some time for him to put weight on after he had battled hookworms when he was a puppy and almost died. Then, he started to catch up!!!

I think I will start a thread- Our Dogs-Then and Now where we can post pics of our pups when they were just babies (or when we first got them...and what they look that today) :)

Here's the video I was talking about. Sorry it's so shaky sometimes (it was so bright, I couldn't see what I was filming haha). Also, don't mind my annoying voice. ::) I was just getting over laryngitis.

This video is of Miles and his first time in the goat pen.

Notice how Miles was more interested in eating goat poop and duck feathers than the actual goats and ducks. ::)

That's amazing he has no prey drive :o
If you would let Lily in that pen without introduction she would chase those goats to death and those ducks and a cat ::) ::) ::)
Miles is such a good boy  :-*
