6 Weeks
Well, what can you say... they are too cute! I was sitting in the pen with them at 5:45 this morning wishing I was still in bed yet marveling at the wonders of being on the bottom of a "puppy pile". There is a different view of the world from down there.
The adventure of the week has been daily trips out on the deck. In spite of my concern of them being cold... they were not rushing the door to get in, not even this morning at 5 degrees. We finally got a true snow this week and added a few inches yesterday. Today they came in looking like they had been rolled in sugar crystals. They enjoy chasing big sister Delyla both in the house and on the deck.
Two little girls, Sydney & Alyssa, came to visit us this week also.... the puppies thought I got them new chew toys I think. Hard to tell who was squealing more, the pups or the girls. Alyssa took some great pics for me with her new digital camera and we will post them soon.
Six week photos will be up by the weekend, here are the weights.... they outgrew the little scale this week...lol
Rudy 12.4 lbs
Spruce 11.8 lbs
Kringle 12.2 lbs
Candy 10.8 lbs
Noel 11.6 lbs
Frosty 10.6 lbs

Week 5
It is truly hard to believe that we are on week 5 already! Seems like they have gone from cereal to solid food almost overnight.
The puppies are working on their socialization skills and we have had visitors nearly every day. They had a great time playing with the Miller's in the livingroom on Tuesday night... what an outing that was!
Fina also found it necessary to let all the puppies out while we were gone the other day. I am sure they had a great time exploring the whole house.... wonder where all my websitters were that day?
I have decided on coat length this week and my initial guess was way off. The only smooth coats are Rudy and Spruce, all the rest are plush. So out of the 12 puppies that Fina has produced only 2 have been smooth. She obviously doesn't understand statistics...smile.... especially when you also consider that 6 of the 12 are also white. The best news is that all the hopeful puppy people have found a match!
The pups are eating a combination of moistened and hard kibble now with a bit of cereal and a bit of canned puppy food. The last few days have shown huge weight gains... I had to double check the scale today when I weighed them!
5 Week weights:
Rudy 10 lb 4 oz
Spruce 9 lb 11 oz
Kringle 10 lb 6.2 oz
Candy 8 lb 14.5 oz
Noel 9 lb 10.3 oz
Frosty 9 lb
The last litter ranged from 8 lb 2 oz to 10 lb 2 oz when they were this age so we are looking at the puppies being at least 15-18 lbs when they are ready to go home on the 24th.
Photos were taken this afternoon and should be up soon.
