Nessa's Pups at Four Weeks
Today was a beautiful day full of sunshine and warm temperatures. All of the puppies got to go outside for a short time. These are some of my favorite shots of the pups.

Big Pups
At 3.5 weeks, Nessa's babies had their first meal today. Fromm Puppy Kibble soaked in Goats Milk, then smashed into a gruel. Instead of putting food on my fingers for the pups like I have with past litters, I just set the bowl down and called to them. Immediately three of them came to the bowl and started licking. Eventually they all had a good amount, and they figured it out so quickly!!

Claire's Puppies, One Week and Two Days :)
Claire's pups are sporting their new collars with dots to differentiate them from Nessa's litter. These puppies are doing really well, and Claire enjoys doting on them.

This is not an illusion. Claire's Light Blue boy is as big as Nessa's puppies that are one week older! Nessa's puppies weigh between 731g and 937g and this boy weighs 874g. He's a hulk! Claire's other pups weigh from 530g to 674g.
Nessa's Two Week Old Puppies
Yesterday's snippet of video was so popular with the puppy families that today I've put up a longer clip. These puppies are really getting around! You can really see the importance of the pig rail around the box near the end when Nessa comes in and lays down on top of one of the babies. This rail allows the puppy to be safe under the rail where it is protected from the full weight of mom.

Sunshine Pups
Today we took advantage of the wonderful sun and warm weather and took the older puppies outside for about ten minutes. They seemed to love their time in the sun! The orange boy's eyes are now starting to open. They are really beautiful puppies.

Nessa's Girls
Here are three of Nessa's girls. So sweet! These puppies are now up and wobbling around the box on their little legs. Pretty soon they'll be opening their eyes!
