One Week Old!

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!

Finally had a spare minute to edit some photos:

6 year old grandson Ben giving pups their first solid meal.

The Milk Bar

A gaggle of puppies! My how they have grown. Top puppy is Patsy, 1 o’clock is Johnny, across the middle is Jimmie, at the bottom is Hank and at 9 o’clock is Tammy.

Cute puppy butts.

Ben with Patsy, Tammy and Hank

Tammy and Patsy like to hang together.

And the boys … Jimmie, Johnny and Hank on the bottom.

 

Eating and Sleeping…That’s What They Do!!

Here they are lined up at the “milk bar”.!

And now they sleep.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So we are calling them the Country Legends litter because, in between these pups’ arrivals last Friday night,  I watched the PBS special on the history of Country Music. Great show, by the way.

So on the top right photo we have  Hank (Williams) at 2 o’clock. At 3 o’clock we have Patsy (Cline). At 7 o’clock we have Tammy (Wynette). At 9 o’clock we have Johnny (Cash) and at 11 o’clock we have Jimmie (Rogers).

Just wanted you to see how their little noses, at 1 week, are already darkening!
