Nubee is 27 days old today. Nubee is initiating dominance interactions over Grizz and Groan. Nubee was anxious in response to Groan during pen cleaning. She was very active and showed much greater motor control. Her ears are also more erect. Nubee is also growling at staff but submits after being rolled over. Nubee was anxious during a presentation today and was not interested in anything but getting out of the pen. She briefly chewed on the beaver tail but Groan and Grizz took over. She was removed early due to excessive panting. Nubee was taken to the new pup facility. Nubee whined and briefly greeted Shadow and Malik. She then went down into the pond hole, climbed out, then sought refuge at the side of the pen with Groan and the nanny.
