The more I love him! :heart: It's been such a wonderful experience as Yoshi becomes more comfortable with me, and show more of his sweet goofy self. :) He has a new habit of putting his beak to your nose when you talk to him and staring directly at you. He likes cuddling more than head scritches so far, and likes to have his cheeks and right under his beak gently rubbed. He also just loves to climb around and play with everyone. He's a lot less wobbly than last time, though he still needs a little help and stumbles sometimes. Yoshi's a lot less obsessed with being fed than last time, and did pretty well with stepping up. The breeder's going to start harness training soon, which I intend to keep up.

Yoshi will be ready to come home in about ten days. :D

Thank you! :D I am very excited! I'm so impatient to take him home, but at the same time I know he has to be fully weaned.

Oh I know the feeling all too well. I had to wait for Carlos to be weaned to bring him home. :) I would still buy some handfeeding formula though if I were you. You might enjoy giving him some comfort feedings when he gets home. Or some warm mashed sweet potato or some organic baby food. :hug8:

Afie had a couple comfort feedings after she first came home. We bought a whole big bag of the powder and she only wanted like two feedings. xD I'm going to ask the breeder about comfort feedings for him before I take him home, and we always have sweet potato on hand.

Thanks for the advice!

:lol:I do tend to take tons of photos- mainly because I'm a terrible photographer (not being modest, I'm really very bad) and I need to to get a couple decent ones. :hehe:
