Week 5 - 3/12/2023
The puppies are into their fifth week & are growing & developing fast! We added some fencing to enclose the front yard and they get to go outside for several hours every day. After playing, free-wheel running & exploring, they knock out. They are like Energizer Bunnies with hour long shelf-life!
Eros has gained the most weight coming from the lightest a few weeks ago, to now being third heaviest (at at the time of writing this a few days after Week 3, he actually is #2 behind Anwil). We have been giving them all a piece or two of raw goat bones to gnaw on and fight over. The puppies get to develop their tug & shred skills this way. Brisa, aka The Explorer, has begun helping her mama dig deeper & cozier holes in the yard. Aime is a love bug, wagging like crazy when picked up & crawling wildly up higher to get face licking and kisses. Brisa is first to jump forward when called to, squirms and loves, and Anwil has a loving, warm confidence; he's easy to hold. The pups got their first field trip together in Tiina's SUV to the store, all in a crate, with Zia along in the back, for a round trip of one hour. No complaints.
Daddy Miles and his people came all the way from Colorado to visit the pups and everyone had a great time getting socialized to new people, new things, and a new dog! Tomorrow is a new day of bigger pups and new adventures.
