Leti Pups 3 Weeks 5 Days

The Leti pups are just 2 days shy of trying to eat food. They tried it yesterday so the are 3 days ahead of schedule. That they ate steak and cheese and kibble yesterday, I wondered how their digestion would handle it but they were more than fine with solid stool.
Nathan treated the moms to Wendy's hamburgers and the pups thought yum! But I also started them on starter mousse and they rather enjoyed that. We only try this once in a day at the beginning as we want to see if they will have issues with digesting food. The pups here with Leti and her 2 with Raven seem to have a good digestion system.
In a couple of days if all goes well, we will regularly have food for them. They will still drink milk as water is the last thing they adjust to or want to have. It sometimes takes a bit but they are getting all their needs met through mom till they make the leap in a few weeks to mostly food.
They can not be without mom at night till they are drinking water. We do have them sleep without the moms to help them to make that leap of learning to sleep all night. That process takes a bit but it all comes together before they go home.
Be sure to check out the videos.
You will notice we introduced a crate and you can often see mom and pups inside. It's a riot as it is a small crate.
