Interesting

Hey what is that human doing? Cutting your nails?

As you probably know each line has different growth curves. Some grow fast and slow down stopping earlier in adulthood and some are steady and grow later. 

Here is the gallery of all 10 in the hall.

The Stormy pups have stopped fast growth significantly. This is normal. Looking back at Abigail lines, they did the same. The largest Raven gal is only 4 ounces different than the smallest Stormy puppy. Adele, therefore Abigail lines are fast out of the gate and then start to slow in their growth. I am glad I keep all my charts to compare. 

So what appeared to be destined to be large puppies will not be so. They are on track, it seems. Good to know. The lone gal that is the smallest in the Raven crew will remain small. How do I know? Her bone structure dictates so. She is a petite gal. She is a mighty one. LOL

Here is the gallery of the Raven Crew getting their nails cut.

Pups are faring well with the Stormy pups. We added chicken pieces to their softened kibble. More and more of their teeth are coming in.  They are drinking water and they have no issue feeding from either mom. I try to make sure they feed from the right mom. Raven is always observing and making sure everyone is okay. I noticed that she is always aware. Even when out of the pen she sits on the couch staring at them. I wish I could read her mind.

Be sure to watch the videos.
