Brotherly Love

The boys had a big day today, it was their first time spending the whole day outside in our grass kennel. They had sun, shade, water, toys and their first solid meal. It was another beautiful day in the high 70's to low 80's - just right for the boys to be out and enjoy some fresh air. All that fresh air, room to 'run' and play tuckered them all out and when we brought them inside, after a meal with Mom, they sacked out for the night. I couldn't resist taking this photo of Blue (top) and Yellow, who just looked too sweet together!

Outdoor Adventures

Today was a beautiful day, in the mid to high 70's so the boys got to go out and play in the grass for a couple of hours.
You wouldn't believe how hard it is to get 5 puppies to stay close to each other to take a photo, so this is as close as I could get. They had a great time exploring the 20x20 grass kennel and no toys were even needed as the grass was fascinating enough!

Uncle Chip

This video is of Adrian's dog Chip (Miniature Rat Terrier) starting to play with Orange. This took place while we were changing the bedding in the whelping box. Each evening the puppies are 'turned free' inside the office while we change their bedding. With every day they get a little braver and a little more playful.

Teeth are coming in

This is "Red" a liver boy who's K-9 teeth are coming in very well! All the boys are starting to get their teeth now, as Adrian can attest to seeing one just bit his big toe. :) Adrian is currently sitting in the whelping box loving on puppies while their mom Izza is sitting by my feet hoping for some mom attention.

Also notable is the fact that "Red" has the least amount of eye and nose trim, but even his is coming in pretty well.

First day with their new toys

Every one's eyes are open but we still can't tell color for sure yet. They sure changed and grew a lot since last Thursday when I left for the dog show with their daddy who won Best In Breed on Sunday!!
