KNenagh: Great stuff serene, hope you'll have a many happy years with him.
I think a lot of dogs getting attention and someone "working" with them are that way. Are you going to puppy classes with him?
No I'm training him myself .. I did classes with my Benny, who passed last year, when he was just 9 weeks old and I'm using the same techniques
I was curious to see how this boy who's 5-6 months old would respond as he's basically raised himself since being separated from his litter but he has picked things up almost immediately, he's amazing

That's good, a lot of dogs like attention and if it's in a playful way, learning. He probably appreciates a good life and wants to please you.
Went with our dog when she was a dog to puppy classes - she reluctantly did what I told her, but refused to listen to my mum and chased all cyclists up the hill outside the house. Mum got the trainer out and got it resolved, she was a clever BIG dog as well.

We have a lonnng way to go and it's quite exhausting tbh but just watching his delight at discovering new things and introducing him to new experiences is just delightful..
This morning he enjoyed another romp around the lake, went in the water for a paddle and ducked his face right under to pick something up .. his startled expression was hilarious
