5 Weeks 4 Days

Here is the gallery.

The upstairs photos are in Hallie's gallery. I explain it there.

How did the pups do? They fussed a little. One tried to climb up the xpen but then settled in and mostly slept. I call this a huge success and as each day goes by, they get used to the routine and will wait to be brought downstairs. 

They started eating softened kibble but with their teeth, we may be able not to soften. We have caught a few eating kibble so it may be time. They are growing up so fast.

They are getting better at climbing, hop running and the play gets better and better and oh ouch they have teeth. I have to find pacifiers for them. I may have some in the freezer. They chew to soothe their mouths during this time.

They already had 1 play session out and I will be uploading those videos. I am going to try to get Nathan to do the next session so Dennis and I can relax before our week on our own. We shall see how that goes.

Hallie kept me up for most of the night. That is her usual so my watch said I had just under 5 hours of broken sleep. I am hoping tonight is better.

If I am short on blogs, it is only till Saturday so just realize I am doing the best that I can. 

All 8 pups are pretty outstanding. There are a couple that have minds thinking to find solutions like double mask that escapes, mustache gal that was pretty much 1st on every try. They are all outstanding and I will tell you about the rest as there are no slouches. Some are quieter than others. Oh and the black and white Hallie pups is slimming down and he thinks play is the name of the game. 

More another time....

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