Bank Holiday. Mums move.

29/8/2010

 
This is the last Bank Holiday weekend of the year & were has the year gone Christmas seems to be just aroud the corner again.
We have just moved all the Mums Dolly & Ysabel & their pups into are sitting dining room. We have put them into crates now with a lamp above to still make sure they stay warm. To put them in crates is about safety, because as much as I would love to have all the pups running around all the time the risk to them being stepped on, squat in a door or chewing or eating something not good for them is a real one. Being in the crates in are living area allows them to become fimiliar with all the bussle & noise of a household. When a bit older & more mobile they will be allowed out & about. We have a large walled patio & a puppy run on are lawn & if the weather is lovely these places are great for pups to play & have adventures safely. My children regularily nurse the pups & I think properly supervised this prephars them well for family life & from birth makes them used to human contact.
Dolly's pups had their first taste of solids yesterday & they did not need to be showed what to do, as they tucked in & cleared their plate. Dolly was around to clean them up after they straddled through it & they also took great pleasure in licking it of each other. I feed a whole dry food which when you start them on it you soak it in water to make like a porridge for them.
Ysabel is doing her pups great & it looks like their eyes will be open soon. They are tubby little girls & are all really well marked.
The photos below are from the last couple days & unfortunatly I can still not caption them. Hope we can get to the bottom of why I can not do this
 soon, as I am going to have a lot of photos to catch up on putting captions to.

Hi Jane, The pics look lovely thank you for posting them! Sorry I’m late writing back, the new puppies look so adorable! It is lovely to read your blog, it really reflects on your dedication and true passion for your dogs.
Charlie currently snoring loudly in his bed, he is very tired after his walk along the river today! I will email you some more pics soon!
Take care,
