1 Day Short of 3 Weeks: Updated

Dennis gave me a bit of helps. I managed to get the 2 gals outside. Yesterday the boy was outside. Nathan's back is hurting too much so we will do the Nami pups tomorrow. The gallery has been updated.
Here is the gallery.

I am going to attempt to do blogs early as I am not sure when the hard drive will arrive and how long I will be down. I am hoping it arrives this morning. 

Pups are shiny silky to the touch. The boy is fat. He needs to walk more. Have no issue with fat. Lord knows I have been there but it stifles mobility when too rolly polly and he LOVES to eat so maybe in a week, he will start to slim down as he becomes more active. I noticed in watching, he feeds twice as much as the gals. It makes me laugh but when they walk, they lose and when they run, they lose even more so he will be fine. You only worry if they get so fat they can't walk. I have never had that happen but I do know it has happened to others. You can't control feeding from mom. They need the nutrition. In about a week, they will start eating food so mom will feed less. Hallie is a comfort mom where she wants them all getting their needs met always. She so loves her babies in a huge way. She beams when I play with them. 

I had Yoshi in here to get them used to it. Both moms were fine. My mothers really trust each other even when they invade the others space and become nosey and want to take over. Nami does this the most to Hallie. Hallie never growls. She just gives her the side eye and Nami says - okay, I get it. Hallies pups are not at the stage that moms say - go out and play but that will come.

Be sure to check out the shorts. Plus the main directory of the videos here.
