Tucker's first bath here

I can hardly believe I've had Tucker a month already! He'll be 14 weeks old tomorrow, and I finally gave him his first bath since he's been here today. He stays generally clean so he didn't really need one that much, but it's good to get him used to it anyway.
He's so good, especially for a puppy. He wanted to get out of the tub at first, but adjusted quickly and enjoyed a good drink of tub water :lol:
On the grooming table he is pretty good, he loves to be brushed and kicks his foot while I brush ANY part of him LOL
He will lay there as long as I'm still brushing, but as soon as I stop he wants to get up. He's not very co ordinated just yet, so I had my son stay near the table while I took pics to make sure he didn't fall off.
Even my cat Winston had to get up on the table and sniff the nice smelling puppy. LOL Or maybe just to prove he could :lol:
Tucker wasn't crazy about the blow dryer in his face, but other than that he didn't seem to mind it too much. He of course wondered if it was edible...

Anyway, here are a couple of pics... they're not great, it was hard to take pics and also have one hand ready to grab the puppy. My son was there to make sure he didn't fall off, but I wasn't entirely confident of his reflexes. :lol:

Snoopy :wink:....errr... I mean Tucker looks great....
my gosh he is HUGE! :lol:
I really wish I lived closer to you, so I could get my puppy fix and then leave him at your house :excited:
Tucker looks like he's all dressed for the ball in his tux :D
Thanks everyone :)

I do just want to kiss his lil puppy face all the time....

He is huge, my scales are acting up (digital) saying error most of the time, but when I tried to weigh him yesterday it was flickering between 33 and 34 lbs. I'm not sure if that's accurate, but I'll get a better idea when he goes for shots on Thursday.

Re his tux, many of you know how much I adore markings that make them look like tuxedo puppies, so of course that was a big factor in why I wanted him so much. LOL I know markings shouldn't be a factor at all, especially when considering a show dog, but I can't help it. One of his littermates had even more of a tuxedo look, and of course that one I gravitated to immediately, but Tucker was the showiest and I love his personality too.
He truly is a stunning puppy, Stacey. :D Not to mention so sweet ya just wanna squeeze the stuffin out of him!! :kiss:
What a cutie. I can't stop looking at those pictures of your boy, Tuck.
Just amazing! I didn't think I missed the puppy stage, but looking at those pictures, I want another puppy!
Give that Mr. Darcy Tucker many many kisses from me!!

Im in looooovvvveeee! :kiss: :kiss: :kiss:
If that isn't the face of a trouble raising little tyke I don't know what is!! :lol: (okay not so little tyke so that means BIG trouble right. :banana: :banana: :banana: )

Great head markings though. I love good head markings, especially asymetrical ones and here we are with 3 whiteheads!! :rimshot: Oh well they are happy and healthy pups so that is what counts, right! But what is the deal with his front, :lmt: seems like he couldn't decide between white socks and white coveralls so he went with the "I'm everything to everyone" look. :wink:

Great looking fellow Willowsprite, hope to see him as a senior puppy at this year's specialty!
I AM JELOUS WHAT A CUT DOG.
SO CUTE! His paws are huge...He's going to dwarf your girls! I'll be right over to squeeze him! :D
