Puppies are beginning to play with each other, “growl” at each other and toss and tumble. This is the phase where all work comes to a standstill so I can watch!

- This is Moonstruck. No longer the biggest of the bunch.
So Much Has Happened!
What a busy week for us here at Carneys Haven! The puppies are growing by leaps and bounds. They all doubled their birthweight by day 9. Their little pink noses are beginning to turn black. And today, on day 14, their eyes are beginning to open!
Here are some closeups with their new names…all related to the Wolf Blood Moon lunar eclipse.
This is Moonlight. She is the smallest one of the bunch but is definitely holding her own. Like the others, she doubled her birthweight by day 9! Luna is a black parti. Today Moonlight weighs 12.9 ounces.
This is Eclipse. He is a sable pied boy. All four paws have white tips. He was the second one born. His nose is almost all black now and his eyes opened yesterday. Eclipse weighs 15.4 ounces.
This is Moonstruck. She is a pretty red parti. Her eyes were the last to open but they slightly open now. Moonstruck was the last to be born and was quite a bit larger than the others at first. But Eclipse and Luna have passed by her as of a couple days ago! Today she weighed 15.9 ounces.
This is Luna. She was the first born and is a dark red sable parti. Her eyes are open but her little nose hasn’t quite turned all black yet. As of yesterday, she is the biggest of the bunch at 1 pound, 1 ounce.

Maggie/Stora Puppies Are Here!
Maggie whelped 4 beautiful puppies last Sunday. Three girls and one boy! Maggie is black and white and Stora is red so I had no idea what we’d get. I actually figured all black and white because it is a dominant color combination. But it turns out three have more red than black! The fourth, a much smaller little girl, is black and white like her mama.

This is the handsome Stora, owned by Lorrie Jergensen, in Punta Gorda Florida.
This is our little boy…second in the birth order.
First born, this little girl is a pretty red sable and white.
Never underestimate this girl’s size. She latched onto Maggie’s nipples right away and I predict will catch up to her siblings in no time! Black and white.
Last, but not least, is our pretty red and white girl.
Puppies at 5 days old. Look how they have already filled out!
