Updating again :) Hard to keep it all updated!
Our theme this week is Packing, pups are packing up their favorite toys and preparing to go on their journey to their new homes next week. And as a side note, rawhide is ONLY for the photo shoot, we threw it away immediately following. Rawhide should be avoided, it’s a major problem for choking as well as blockage in the intestines. In addition, how they make rawhide and the chemicals they use… well. Try antlers. If pup is being supervised bully sticks are good, too. And just as a rule of thumb, never leave pup alone with something you’ve not observed them with in the past, I’ve known of a few very tragic endings to that same story. So, avoid rawhide and supervise! My sermon is complete hehe :)
Weekly photo shoot was a huge affair today, it started with a nice romp in the yard and then finally moved inside. I shot over 600 photos…. my back and Robin’s knee may never be the same again! But, hopefully you enjoy the photos! Pups are doing great!! They are all so smart, bold and very sweet. Tenacious is also a word I’d use. Tonight a frog was loudly croaking, it was fun to see how they reacted. Green, Red and Blue were the first to explore and see if they could figure it out then the rest came on out to see, too. Nothing to see, just a new sound. I enjoyed seeing them experience it and consider how to react. No one was scared, just varying degrees of caution but all curious and willing to check it out. Really nice pups, we are growing prouder of them by the day!
The bird wing has come out this past week to start seeing who is the most naturally inclined and get them started. We played with just a few pups with the wing so I could get some photos. So you’ll see Green on point, Blue in full attack mode and Orange was stalking. Everyone’s has a turn, and everyone is definitely interested. We have good prey drive in the litter!
