17 Days,


Blossom was just determined to play with somebody, for about 5 minutes she was jumping on sleeping puppies, trying to wrestle with them, but everybody ignored her and she finally settled down and went to sleep herself

16 Days old,

Panda yawning

Cici on the left, Prince aka blue boy, checking out the food, note the bowl is full at this time

Cici climbed up into my lap

Prince having breakfast


puppies learning to eat from a bowl, Prince on the right was quite good about it, he just sat next to the bowl and dipped his mouth into the food like a pro


more puppies eating


Prince putting his paw into the food, he didn't like the wet feeling of it and tried to get it back out


Dottie having the food all over her


I think this is Tinka with food all over her face, the puppies aren't too happy when they get the wet stuff on on themselves


Cici and Prince

Still eating


Samantha joined in

Busy little puppies licking each other

Blossom was very eager to get her share of the food,
Bianca was very playful today, too bad that most of the pictures of her today were not in focus, she initiated play constantly

Puppies licking the food off each other, look at that empty bowl.

15 Days,


Grizzly playing with blue boy and Cici. I also noticed today that he tried to get his mom to play with him, he is the only one so far that I have seen trying to initiate play with his mother, she didn't act playful with him, I wonder if she even noticed what he was doing, he is so little and he was messing with her neck, I think she didn't realize what he was doing. Several puppies also got playful with me, they come up and want to interact.

I think Panda is looking for an occupation as couch guardian,


Pink girl is now Tinka, she seems to have a very sweet personality, she comes to me and wants to cuddle, really seems to enjoy it, she also acts playful with me. a

2 weeks old,




Little Cici did not waste a minute to get a bite of mom's food. This all started at 2 am this morning when I brought Leydi her nighttime meal, 3 of the puppies didn't even try to nurse but sniffed the air and went for the food bowl much to mine and Leydi's surprise. Tonight I found Cici again in mom's food bowl helping herself to a snack, interestingly she didn't want the food I put in front of her in a puppy sized bowl, so it almost seems like she is trying to mimic mom and trying the foods that mom has instead of food that is just put in front of her. Kind of makes sense as in the wild canine moms will regurgitate food for their puppies, so a puppy that stays close to mom as a food source has a better chance of survival.



look at this puppy, she is truly a little miss personality, I call her Cici, she was the first born and the smallest at birth, but she has caught up and is no longer the smallest

Mom and daughter
Yellow dot girl, or now named Dottie, always crawls behind mom's butt and sleeps there, funny how they come up with such an idea, she really does this several times a day

Grizzly on the left is a really content and laid back puppy so far, he eats and he sleeps, I rarely see him do much else, just a really laid back guy, blue boy on the right is a little more active but he too usually wanders off and finds himself a spot to get comfortable

pink girl with her tail up is inviting the others to play, the little blue boy on the bottom is already starting to wrestle and tonight he got all goofy with me and seemed to enjoy a little wrestling and mock biting with my hand, it's nice that they don't have any teeth yet


playtime

pink girl strutting around, tail up


checking each other out

puppies getting to know each other, they are really starting to interact now instead of just using each other as pillows.

Purple girl, now called Panda, on the left, then yellow collar girl, which doesn't have a name yet, maybe Samantha, and pink girl, no name yet, maybe Dolly, since she is such a little doll.

All ten in one picture

These two just helped themselves to mom's breakfast, Leydi wasn't sure what to do as the puppies were in her way when she was trying to eat, she just watched them lap at her food, is was such a cute sight. These are red collar girl which I now call Cici (little woman) and the other one is white collar girl which I am calling Bianca for now (means white).
