      <content type="html"><![CDATA[
        <p>Solo was a big pup.&nbsp; At 700 grams he was a whopper.&nbsp; Born with an attitude he was yipping at 10 seconds and ready to eat before mom quite understood what this little black thing was.&nbsp; At two days old he climbed out of a laundry basket to get at a teat.&nbsp; He is now 17 days old and what a great little guy he is.&nbsp; His first two weeks were spent living the dream - suckle a tit, belch, fart and then pass out.&nbsp; (What more can a male ask for?).&nbsp; Now he is getting his coordination sorted out and is starting to walk around.&nbsp; 
</p>
<p>
One of the concerns with any pup is the weaning process.&nbsp; It has to happen.&nbsp; This morning, he wobbled over to mom&#8217;s breakfast dish and started to chow down.&nbsp; Amazing and welcome.&nbsp; Time to start offering him his own bowl.&nbsp; In a few more weeks, he will be going to his new home in Nova Scotia where he will join his own pack of 3 other Canines and two people.&nbsp; He is going to a dear friend of herself who lost their 7 month old male to cardiac arrest and he will have a wonderful pack to share his life.
</p>
<p>
We have worked hard not to get attached to him, but he is a winsome little rascal.&nbsp; I suspect he will be a very nice boy as an adult but he will need someone who understands strong willed Sheps.
