Now We Are Two!

Sienna’s puppies are growing by leaps and bounds. They are clumsy, playful and lively. They make wonderful eye contact, are good eaters and doing fantastic with their potty training. Pooping is 98% in their potty boxes. Peeing is maybe 75%. Not bad for 8 week olds!

AllĀ  but two of them have wonderful homes to look forward to. Two are on their way and two leave next week. One is staying with me.

While all had been spoken for, two families decided to wait for our next litter so Pikachu (male) and Pansear (female) are still looking for the perfect family.

If you’d like to learn more about these two, send me an email to j7carney@gmail.com

Tough love!

 

Getting to Know Others!

To be well adjusted, puppies need socializing! So I am always grateful when a family comes to visit us. Recently a Mom, Dad and three daughters (oldest just entering high school) came to visit. Here are some pix of our wonderful visit.

 

Oh My What a Week We Have Had!!

So, where do I begin?

Maybe I’ll just skip the mini disasters of the week and go right to the tree crashing across our entire front yard three days ago!

Thankfully no serious damage…but we are now on day 3 of having no power and no internet. Which means of course….no blog posts!

 

So I am at our wonderful public library, plugged in and recharging my phone and my computer. So this will be brief!

So this is the tree…at least 1/4th of it!

And here are a few cute videos….

 

And some very cute still photos!!!

They all really love their puppy bed!

Sitting down on the job!

Looking for a friend!

And this is how i feel right about now! Like I could fall asleep just about anywhere! So I guess I will head home from the library and hope our power is back on!

 

 

 

3 Weeks Old Now….So much has happened!

All of Sienna’s puppies now have eyes open! And are they ever motoring around their little casa!

We had our second dose of dewormer Sunday…and our second pedicure. I can’t say they are any more excited about the pedicures…it is a process!!

We have also started Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) which is the first step in making them stronger and more relaxed about challenges. You can read more about ENS here: https://www.extension.purdue.edu/extmedia/VA/VA-24-W.pdf

I have also removed the pig rails from their whelping box so they and Sienna have more room to move around. But it won’t be long before they will want an even bigger house…isn’t that always the way!!

All tuckered out after their first ENS session! Note the missing pig rails!

But the biggest news of all is that they LOVED their first plated meal…even if they weren’t sure about table manners! (No feet on the table please! LOL)

You might also notice the disposable pee pad that is now in their box. This is the beginning of potty training!! They don’t know yet what a wonderful opportunity pee pads present for the shredding game. That comes soon enough. In the meantime, their little pee scent will be on this pad which will soon be moved to a “litter box.” Stay tuned to this channel for more~!!
