Puppy update!

The puppies are 4 weeks old now - so hard to believe! They're adorable and so fun to watch play together. Sometimes one of them will take on one of the "big dogs" and bark at them. So funny!

Here are their 4 week pictures. We also took stacked pictures this week which are posted both on our website and our Facebook page.

We put the x-pen around the kiddie pool that the puppies are in about a week ago because four of them were able to get out. Rose still can't get out on her own because she is so small. Yesterday was weigh-in day - our smallest is Rose at 2.2 lbs and our largest is Ozzie at 5 lbs. All of them are very healthy and doing well!

The puppies are starting the weaning process by eating puppy food (American Natural Premium Endurance Formula) mixed with water three times daily. They still nurse from Millie, just not as often.

I have started the routine of bringing all of the puppies outside when they are let out of the pen to start potty training. I think that this really helps set some ground work for house breaking the pups after they go to their new owners.

We will be going to Lake Elmo, MN for UKC shows next weeked, July 17-18, so if I don't update before I definitely will after the shows!
