Maya had her first ultrasound today! An ultrasound is done in the middle of pregnancy to see if we are expecting puppies. It’s not completely accurate for puppy counts as sometimes puppies are missed, being so small at this point, and sometimes they can be reabsorbed.

Maya is expecting puppies! The vet saw three little bubbles so our guess is three right now.

Just a month left to go!

Let’s spend a minute talking about Maya. Certain traits are heritable, so let’s see what you are in for if you want a Maya puppy.

Maya checks all the boxes for the breed standard. She is perpetually happy and she is a goofball. As I’m writing this, she is seriously chasing her tail.

She also has the nickname ‘crazy’ in our house. Now, she certainly isn’t Malinois crazy or any high energy breed kind of crazy. She’s Coton crazy. She will definitely sit and be calm if needed and she was very easily crate trained. But she will also watch TV and bark at all four legged characters on the screen. I have the buttons that talk and if I leave the ‘treat’ button down she will press that button repeatedly. She’ll also press the outside button when she’s bored and just wants to do something different.

She’s also a talker. If you research the Coton talk, you’ll see examples of this. My daughter says she purrs when pet, but my daughter has never had a cat.

As for intelligence, Maya can learn anything. She loves training and can excel at most anything.

She also jumps like she’s walking around on a trampoline all day. This has likely caused an elbow issue on one of her front legs. She shows no outward signs of problems or of stopping anytime soon, but just know she is a pogo stick.

While she likes to meet other people and animals, she could be called a Velcro dog. She likes exploring so long as we are right next to her. Her favorite people to meet are kids. I think she sees kindred spirits there.
