First Baths

DateWednesday, May 27, 2020 at 6:54PM

Pups had a first bath today. It was a quickie. I did 5 pups at a time and sprayed with shampoo and conditioner then rinsed them off. They got to dry outside. No individual photos - sorry but clean they are.

Here is the bath gallery.

How did they do? Rather well considering I was spraying stuff all over them. No one complained. Of course no dryers so I can't assess that but we will next time.

We can't do the 6 week visit but I am thinking we must do the 8 week just spread out. Let's see what the restrictions are then. I am scrambling to find face shields so we can at least see faces and pups see faces. We are still figuring it out. Pups only last 45 min and then need a nap for 2 hours so this can get interesting but too early to fret over it now. We will make it work. I enjoy these visits too. It's like showing off your babies...

Can't wait till we take this crew swimming.

So excited to see them having their first bath, so cute! I love all that you guys do to prepare these little babies for their bright futures. I hoped we could meet the pups in just over a week but I knew deep down that this probably wouldn’t be able to happen. Maybe we can just come and look from 6 feet away at some stage? Stay safe and keep up the amazing work. ❤️❤️

Joanne: We are figuring out how to do the 8 week visit. Not possible to do 15 families into 15 visits. The pups would be mighty exhausted.
