Getting to Know the Dogs

Here is today's gallery. Odin is wondering what are you doing, pups?

The pups are slowly getting to get to know all the adults. This is there slow conditioning to the dogs. They have no fear. They only have curiosity. But some of the adults are better than others. Some think of them as gremlins especially when they insist on getting them to play. They will learn the receptive signs and the ones that are not receptive. 

Saffron is almost done weaning. They still try but the last 2 mornings she has stopped feeding them in the morning and they are getting it. She tends to now only feed when she needs a release. Eventually she will no longer have milk. 

These pups have been good. Sometimes they keep at it despite mom saying no. It hinders them learning from mom. But she seems to be able to get that balance and get them to understand. This age is critical as when they are weaned or almost weaned mom can teach them by play. 

The pups are amazing.... truly!

Saffron is an amazing mom. She has a great natural sense of what to do when. Her pups also seem to be well balanced individuals.
