3 Weeks 4 Days 1st Solid

The pups had their first solid food and they ate like they were meant to eat solids always. They were messy. One swam in the dish. You will see who in the videos. Water I could not get them to drink yet but food - yep. Water is always last so we do not worry. It simply doesn't taste or smell as good. By 4 to 4.5 weeks they will be drinking regularly from the water dish. It all comes together.
They also walked on the flooring and although not steady, they were rather good at it. During this week I will start exposing them to the flooring in their xpen.
As you know, Dennis, our son stays up with them at night but that will soon come to a close. By the 4.5 to 5 week window they start doing without mom and us at night but we always have cameras. I call this the lack of sleep period as I tend to wake up and watch them. It's a sickness, I tell you. As I have sound on always I can hear them and so can the canine mom.
Be sure to check out the videos especially the eating solids first ones.
I am proud of the pups and Safi too even though she stole their food when the pups were done.
