Week 4 - 3/5/2023
The puppies are all growing like crazy and they are beginning to show more personality every day. They play rough and growl loudly at each other. They have begun to drag toys around and occasionally tug-of-war with each other. We had snow last weekend and being sled dogs, we took them outside & stood them on a snow covered table for photos. Brisa & Anwil both tasted the snow, the others pawed around in it. Brief exposure so they didn't get too cold of course.
They have been enjoying a variety of food, including chicken, burger, puppy chow and other meats. We have some meat that we harvested a while back and its good enough for us to eat, but we have been sharing some dove meat with them as well. Its dark red meat and they love it! Right after the snow, it warmed nicely, so we set up an outside area in the front yard, about 6x20, and they get several hours there almost everyday. Brisa is the most energetic and wagging-est of them all. While they all love attention, she is the first to come when smooched to and wags like crazy while she licks our faces. She's catching up in size and is bigger than Aime and Eros now. Anwil is the biggest and seems very calm minded. He's loving and sweet and gentle.
Last thing, they are sleeping through the night pretty well. They wake up if Zia comes to check them but then go back to sleep. Until next week!
