7 Weeks now, lots of new adventures

The pups go outside at least three times almost every day this past week, have been on about 8 car rides so far, and have met many new friends, both human and animals. Today's adventure(2-12)was a trip to the MSU campus, and a short run inside the new parking garage, met a professor and a few grad students. The pups were declared very cute. This past Sunday the pups all met 5 adult Rough Collies, and about 5 new cats during the visit to friend Penelope's home. Saturday, a trip to the country, and a run in the new snow, play with young friend- age 5 years, and tasted some new treats. All of the pups retrieve, and all are friendly, bold, and outgoing. The old Malinois was kind of mean to the pups, though, causing them to squeal when she nipped them for being too forward with her- trying to nurse on her.

The great outdoors

The puppies are almost six weeks old now, and are going outside every day.They enjoy playing in the snow. Today they all had baths and nail trims. Mom still likes to play with her puppies, and they still nurse a for a few minutes each day, however she doesn't seem to have much milk now. The puppies eat food 3 X each day. We have a lot of snow right now here in Michigan.

5 weeks and very active!

The puppies are now five weeks of age, and they are very active when awake- bold explorers. Socializing continues with visits from family friends, and other older, gentle dogs besides mom. Today they all had a bath, and quickly vied to be the first to get smeared with puppy food again. All of the pups are extremely friendly, and they all like to be held and have their ears rubbed. It looks as if Candy may have produced another litter with almost identical, excellent temperaments. Candy still nurses the puppies for a few minutes a few times each day. I have taken some new photos, and will post them as soon as I can squeeze some time from puppy care duties.
