Here is from week 3
Pups are 3 weeks old now and doing great! They’ve moved into their Puppy Palace and have really started coming into their own, playing, discovering, eating and POTTYING! :) Lots of potty going on! Our nickname for the pups are poo-pees, cause that’s pretty much all they do!
You’ll see the theme below… hopefully everyone is Seahawk fans, or at the very least can appreciate a cute puppy decked out as little Twelves :)
This week they’ve started the weaning process as teeth are starting to come in, boy do these kids love their grub, very food motivated puppies! Should help to make easy to train pups! They’ve been getting used to weird sounds, banging pots and pans and vacuuming, barking dogs, yelling kitties, kiddos and the good ol’ TV. They are still pretty wobbly but soon we’ll add different textures so they are used to walking on all kinds of surfaces, and they will learn about the Puppy Jungle Gym! Robin introduced the dremel to them all tonight, to give them really pretty toe nails, it keeps them short with less pain and if maintained once a week, you’ll never hear the clicking of toe nails and it will save your wood floors. They are also learning to use the potty box with quite a bit of success already! It’s a work in process, but all things considered I’m very impressed by the pups and their trainability!
Personalities are developing, so fun to see! Pink is our little Boss of the herd, she’s extremely bold, smart and a titch independent. Purple and Yellow are a little more mellow, Purple being a bit more vocal and Yellow being Mellow Yellow… you can plop her down on the set and she says, “OK…” :) Green is the boy the more independent boy, lots of opinions and tells ya all about it! Orange is also a little more on that side, then we get to Black, White and Red who are all somewhere in the middle, quite mellow and easy going. Blue is the most easy going, though you can’t tell from these photos. He was napping while we shot everyone’s else photo… and he came alive when it was his turn at the end and he was full of sass! Keep in mind this is just this week, next week things could change drastically, it’s fun to watch the evolution. We keep all this in mind but the official temperament test is proven to be most accurate at 7 weeks, so hang in there! What all the babies have in common is their sweetness, boy they love to curl up with us humans and snuggle, they are all curious, playful, bold and smart!
I hope you enjoy the photos, the pups took the set by storm this week and decided to really interact with us, and the lighting equipment as well as each other, soon these photos shoots will be a hectic mess! (But super fun!) The days of getting an even amount of photos of each pup each week is now officially behind us… some are more active or interested in each shoot than another. So it will vary, usually with a different “star” each with today Blue woke up and really went to town making a very fun subject, but Black was my snuggle buddy :). But, I promise every pup will have multiple photos, so you’ll get your puppy fix.
