@tanza Oh yes. I give her 1/3 cup blue buffalo puppy kibble, 1 tbsp wet blue buffalo puppy, 1 tbsp yogurt or cottage cheese, (alternating) and if I se any sign of dandruf or dryness in her fur, I also add in a few drops of olive oil. I have chicken and vegetables every night, and I've been preparing my chicken unseasoned since I got rogue so I can use it for training on occasion, so sometimes if she's being stubborn I'll bury some tiny shreds of chicken in her food to get her to eat, or sometimes I'll do the same thing with some other high value treats. I don't feed her in a crate, but I've moved her bowl into my room so she's lessdistracted at mealtime, and she has a safe place to eat when my niece comes over. Rogue plays nice with my niece outside, but indoors, she's kind of a really big squeeky toy, so we have to watch her constantly. I also, on the rarest occasions, will give her a little tiny pinch of american, or sharp cheddar cheese. That seems to get her really excited. She doesn't get excited about cottage cheese, but american or sharp cheddar? She goes nuts. fagedabodit. And she get chews and kongs in the crate, but never meals. And she doesn't spend much time in there anymore since she's been house trained. She just sleeps in my bed. In fact, she's passed out next to me right now.
Meet Malu

I just picked up my puppy Malu yesterday. He was bred by Jean Martin of Hounds of Timar and Kyle Cabral of Kaleonahe Basenjis. It was a surprise because I wasn't expecting to get him until next week but plans changed last minute, I can't same I'm upset about it ;)!
He is a few days shy of 10 weeks old. He has been great so far, although he is still a little shy in his new home. Whenever something/someone spooks him he hides underneath the coffee table! I will post some pictures and keep updating as things develop. He came out of his shell a little tonight. He actually was playing "fetch" with me with a small tennis ball.
(As some of you might notice, he does have a scratch on his left ear, being a litter of all six boys, they played pretty rough)

Congratulationa on your new Pup, Malu.
What does his name mean ? -
Malu is such a sweetheart!
Adorable face! Have you smelled his corn chip (Fritos) feet yet? Caught a whiff of lovely puppy breath? Oh, the joys of a puppy! -
@Thunderbird. I believe Malu mean's "Peace/Peaceful" in Hawaiian (according ot internet dictionaries). I'll have to confirm with Kyle at Kaleonahe, the owner of the sire, he is Hawaiian. I also borrowed a little inspiration from my favorite football player, Troy Polamalu, of the Pittsburgh steelers. He is Samoan however, and I beleive Malu has a different meaning in that language.

What a beautiful face! Congrats!:D
