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!
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.
And then….30 seconds later…they crashed!
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!
This is Mae!
Mae is 16 weeks old and would love a forever family!
She is one of the happiest puppies I’ve raised. She reminds me of Mae West…hence her name!
Mae is very smart. She loves to play fetch and get her belly rubbed.
She is great with children, other dogs and cats. At 3 weeks Mae used her water bowl as a swimming pool. This got a bit messy so we switched to water bottles and I bought her a kiddie pool! (See video below)
She would make a great pet for an active family.
She is doing well with potty training. Pees and poos outside or on a pad if she is indoors.
She has had 3 of her 4 DHPP vaccines and her bordatella vaccine.
She is AKC registered to parents who have passed all the health testing
requirements and are AKC Champions.
Below is Mae in her kiddie pool. She started swimming in her water bowl at 3 weeks so I got her a water bottle and a pool. She LOVES it!
