Puppies Meet the Broom!
The kids are five weeks old now and enjoying time spent outside their pen. Today, as part of the “Puppy Culture” protocol, they are meeting a very foreign object…the broom!
None of them even skipped a beat! LOL

Puppy Pen Gets Remodeled
Once the puppies gain confidence in their surroundings it’s time to change it out. Not too much…but just enough to challenge their little brains.
So I added some arial objects…plastic chains dangling in several places.
I also added some different toys. And I moved the direction of their pen.
I am so excited how they have taken to pottying in the litter trays!
Milk Bar Closes in 10 Days!
Our puppies started on solid food today! They LOVED it!!
They will still nurse but I gradually cut back Artemis’s food so her supply dwindles slowly. Just like people, you don’t want to stop “Cold Turkey”!
I give them Royal Canin puppy food that has soaked in water. Then I run it thru my mini-food processor.
You might also notice the baking pans filled with pine pellets. This is the first step in potty training. They are doing great. We start them at 3 weeks so this is one week into it.
Open Eyes, Puppy Growls and Mouthing….oh my!
And then….30 seconds later…they crashed!
We Rang in the New Year with Puppies!!
Happy New Year everyone!
On Dec. 30…five days before we expected it…Artemis (CGC Amistosa and Carney’s Woodland Drama Queen) delivered 6 beautiful, healthy babies!!
We have four girls and two boys and all are nursing and gaining. I’ll post individual pix in a few days.
This is Artemis’s second litter. Both times Solo (CH Jangles The Force Awakens) was the sire. The first litter was awesome! I can’t wait to see how these pups develop!
