6 Weeks Old

Here is the gallery of both litters for the last 2 days.

I love this boy. He started out so rolly polly and he has thinned out with all the running around. One sister is small and one is average. The smallest is the smallest of both litters.

The pups full out run now. It happens so fast. Nathan runs with them but so does Hallie. I think I got Hallie doing just that today on video. Yesterday they played and ran outside. I now have all the videos up. It took forever to get them to upload - as in all night long.

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

5 Weeks 5 Days Old

See the gallery in the Nami blog. I will add to it as I go. Videos will be up shortly.

This is the littlest Hallie pup gal. Actually she is the littlest of all and she most likely will remain small. She holds her own despite her size. She is absolutely scrumptious. Despite her size, she has great stamina. She is always so excited for me to play with her. 

The pups had a great 1st session. I wasn't my usual self but after I catch up with sleep, I will rise to the occassion. 

No outside today as we have rain, unfortunately. They do love the outdoors but the hall play is quite fun for them too. 

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

5 Weeks 4 Days

Here is the gallery. I will add to it throughout the day.

This is the chocolate gal who looks like she will have mom's coat just a bit more richer in colour. She has brown pads, blue eyes and brown nose. She is indeed a chocolate as I thought she was in the beginning. Nami has a Brindle similar but different. The brindle is not a chocolate.

She is a quieter pup but full of spirit and play. She loves her toys in a huge way. 

They all each have their own thing that they excel at but I have to admit, I am happy with all. 

When you see the videos, you can see how much fun they have as do I watching and participating with them during their play sessions.

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

5 Weeks and 3 Days Old

You can see the gallery on Nami's blog. 

I introduced a few new things to the pups like this ramp and they took to it quite well. Up and down they went all 8 at various times - even Hallie's littlest. I also did the hanging toy thing and they enjoyed. 

Nathan had them upstairs to give me a break from juggling as I was before he came home. I groomed and got that done. Now he is sitting outside with the dogs.

They run rather well and they are hopping less. They are certainly perfecting their skills.

The pups had fun and I got a break. Win/win for me.
