Getting Closer to 3 Weeks: Gallery Added

Click on Photo for Larger View

The pups actually are getting more active as each day goes by. You have to realize they are not 3 weeks but they are doing really well walking around and navigating the different heights I set up in the pen. I do this on purpose as it helps them to strengthen their legs. If they showed me they were not up to the task just yet I would just have a flat surface. 

If you pay attention to the videos they are doing well in this regard and they are trying to play with each other. The issue is they are still growing at this stage so they sleep a ton. They wake up. We now place them on the pad but they are not going on it yet. It will become a habit. Then they eat, walk around, play and fall back to sleep so I try to catch them in that active stage. I don't always.

They are doing really well and are now seen looking out at mom and at us. They are aware of their surroundings. Here is today's gallery.

Here is today and last night's videos.

I did not realize that one of Adele's pups was already in the bed when she decided that she wanted to use it. So cute. Are the pups using their 'voices' now ?

Oh my gosh, some of those pictures really make your heart melt :)

The gallery pics are adorable. I am still trying to figure out how Adele and Newton had 2 black pups! They are so sweet, all of them.

Newton's mom was black. With the fair haired ones you need to bring black back into the line to try to get pigment. If you breed fair haired or diluted over and over you will lose pigment.

Yes, the pups are vocal at times but not too often. They are a quiet crew unless they need mom. Same with Roxie's.

The pups are so precious, really enjoy watching them grow.
