Boy #1. His nose is already almost fully pigmented. Eyes wide open!
All four pups….pudgy as all get out!
Boy #2. I will work on names this week now that they are moving around!
Girl #1. Love her face! Nose is almost all filled in.
Girl #2. Interesting coloring….So sweet!
Luke and Leia are 6 weeks old now and so fun to watch!
Meri and Striker’s pups are 2 1/2 weeks old. Their eyes are just beginning to open. When they were born, they found their mother by their keen senses of smell and touch. They will soon see…albeit very foggily. Their hearing will begin to develop in a week or so. Every day there are changes!!
It always amazes me how quickly these little guys grow! They have already almost doubled their birth weight! Eyes are still closed and their hearing is not yet developed. They find Meri by smell and touch. It is so cute to watch them rooting around the bed she sleeps in to find her. And their little grunts and beeps are so endearing!
Meri delivered 4 beautiful puppies on Thursday. Striker is the sire…a very handsome boy indeed.
Here are pix of Mom and Dad.
This is Meri. Our pretty girl is a Grand Champion. She turned 2 last August and this is litter. That’s me on lead.
And here are the puppies.
And this is Striker. Isn’t he handsome. Striker is a bronze Grand Champion….all owner handled by my friend Karen Warnacke.
We have two boys and two girls. They are almost all white with pretty sable markings around their heads.
Mother and babies are doing well! But Meri did have a difficult time with this delivery so she had to have a c-section. I made the decision to have her spayed because, while she didn’t need a c-section for her first litter, it was a very prolonged labor. I didn’t want to put her thru that again.
All puppies are spoken for.
