TWO WEEKS OLD

The puppies are two weeks old.  They are getting up on their legs and starting to move around (they kind of look like drunken sailors), their eyes are open and they are slowly starting to look like little puppies.  This week I will start to finger feed them puppy gruel (ground up dog food, milk supplement, hamburger and water)-four to five times a day and they will slowly start the weaning process.  They are growing and gaining weight nicely.  Below are their weights and pictures.  The pictures don't even  begin to show how beautiful these babies are.  Enjoy!

THREE WEEKS OLD

The puppies are three weeks old.  They are walking much better, though they are still working on balance--they use their tail to help with balance.  The pups are playing with toys and each other.  Their teeth are coming in also.  At about 2.5 weeks I started to feed them puppy gruel and their weaning process began.  They are doing very well with it all.  They growl, bark, whimper and howl!
