8 Week Vet Visit

The boy 2lb 2 oz. 

Chocolate gal 2lb 13oz

1st born 2lb 8oz

Darker brown sable 2lb 13oz

Black and white gal 2lb 9-1/2oz

Lighter brown sable 2lb 13oz

The pups are 8 weeks old tomorrow. Here is a gallery before they went to the vets. We try to tucker them out and get them to do their business so they have the most positive ride. They were not tired yet when we got into the car. But they did keep their crate clean to the vets and back from the vets. It wasn't till they got home that they used the pad at home. Bravo little ones!

How was the ride? They serenaded us till we got on the highway. We ignored it and they settled in for the long ride. On the ride back, not a peep. 

We arrived at the vet and was seen pretty much after arrival. See the vet gallery. 

The pups were really good until the microchip and all yelped. Miss lighter brown was a troublemaker but even she said okay... do what you have to.

No one yelped for the shots. It was just the microchip. It's large for small pups so the injection does hurt. sigh. It's a necessity. 

All pups are in great health and the boy has his parts visible. Sometimes when they are small or nervous the testicles get pulled up but he was able to find them. They are sleeping as I type. It was a long day for them.

Mom half fed them this morning but really does not have much milk. It's done, little ones. It's time to start transitioning completely to kibble. 

Treats were ordered today for their departure bags. Baths tomorrow and visit on Saturday - wow. We are hoping they are not sore tomorrow but it happens sometimes. At least they will be back to normal for the visit. 

Be sure to check out the videos.
