The pups hope everyone had a happy holiday. They got lots of rest, some good milk, and as requested a whole mouthful of puppy teeth! Their big sis Lyla has been telling them stories of milkbones and they are dreaming of getting their own.
Everyone got a holiday wipedown, nails trimmed, new collars and are ready for their belated holiday photo shoot.
Here are today's weights:
Rudy 5 lb 6 oz
Spruce 5 lb 8 oz
Kringle 5 lb 6 oz
Candy 4 lb 14 oz
Noel 5 lb .5 oz
Frosty 4 lb 15 oz
The pups are becoming demanding when it is time to eat. They scream their little heads off even once they start nursing. The pups are beginning to interact with each other, biting noses, pawing, and even posturing (placing their head over the neck of another to show dominance). The posturing is likely just play at this point in time but it is interesting that the technique is already present in their "skills". The pups have also figured out how to get out of the whelping box... but of course, they just scream when they want back in.
Grandma got some good video clips of them playing and I will ask Jacki to link them up them this week. Week 3 photos coming soon!
Happy Holidays,
Rhonda & Crew
