Grow your pups on bones...

Messy, messy!

This last few days have been all about mess! They have been messing up newspaper, ragging their toys, spreading food over themselves and the pen, pooping, weeing and creating havoc everywhere!

They had playtime in the garden and seemed to enjoy it, if the sun stays out long enough to allow us out.

They are loving their cuddles and climb all over me when I go to the pen, sweet little Buzz just cuddles into my lap while Tuck and Squirt climb all over him! Crush splats on and joins the chaos. I love how their personalities are developing.

Weaning is going really well. The puppies are being raw fed as the rest of my dogs are. They are having the Naturesmenu Banquet Nuggets plus other bits and pieces including rusks, eggs etc. I also gave them a nibble on a raw meat rack yesterday, they absolutely loved it, it was amazing watching them use their legs and mouths to pull little bits of meat off, I'm sure it does their co-ordination the world of good.

Anyway, must dash, so much to do!

Pupdate


Puppies are sooo cute! They had their first taste of 'proper' food today with home-made rusks with puppy milk. They went crazy for it and I'm sure they are ready for weaning. Crush and Tuck shared as did Buzz and Sqirt, Buzz prefered to eat his share from Squirts face though...
They are all wandering about and playing now. Being in the conservatory is great for them, the other dogs are wandering past, Ethan screaming, laughing and crying, and with the rain, thunder and lightening we have had, noise exposure has been great!

The pups have started playing with their toys and woofing at each other, they are so incredibly cute!

British Record Holders!

A Boo Baby Rupee is a British Record holder! Her team ran a 16.70 last weekend- we are v proud- video above

Update- perfect puppies!




They are so perfect! Starting to growl- woof and play. The growls are so funny- they think they are scary though. The pen is starting to be investigated more each day and when I go in the puppies start to wak and wiggle over. I have added more photos to my main site and a few here but as I'm still avoiding using the flash the eyes arent that clear- I'm sure it's my rubbish skills...


Video

Quick video of the puppies- they are such pigs- Poor Hoaxey x

Another one of the first play sessions...

New Setup

Over the weekend I decided to open up the puppy pen/ whelping box. They have space during the daytime to move out of the box now and investigate. I have placed toys, boxes etc around the pen and they can see the other dogs walking around. I have put the blanket over the pen to keep a shaded/ cave like area which they seem to like for comfort. The puppies are starting to initiate play with each other now and are making full use of the extra space! Personalities are starting to develop more and they are just gorgeous!

Waddling Wherever!

All pups are waddling around now and they are doing little sits. I think I should get the Clicker ut to make sure they learn early- shaping cant start too soon. (just kidding about the clicker ;))! LOL

I have opened the roof up a bit but still have it half covered so they can hide in their cave if they want to. There are a few pots and toys scattered around- they seem to like sticking their heads in the pot to sleep- who knows why???

I think things are going to get crazy very soon!!!

Puppy Updates

Well, more things are happening now so I will start posting here a little more. Pups eyes are now all open and they are starting to investigate more. Each one of them is standing up for short periods of time now and climbing over each other a lot. They are on their second day of worming and are getting wise to the yucky stuff! They are just the cutest bunch of puppies. I started to take some photos this morning but my camera batteries died so hopefully will get some more later!
