We Have a “New Arrangement”

I think that’s Boomer trying out the new potty room while others sleep.

Today the puppies reached another milestone. I have put them all in the same whelping box (since they seem to go back and forth now indiscriminately). This enables me to have a sleeping/play area separated from the potty area. In a few days, after they get this picture, I will open the far end of the whelping box as their giant play area. With a little luck (and some nudging from Mother Nature) they will remember the potty room and go there during their play sessions instead of messing where they play.

 The idea is to make potty training a much more natural segue as they mature.

Here are a few shots I took today.

Can you find the 16 puppies?

Some puppies (background) prefer the kibble/goat’s milk mush and others (foreground) still like it the old fashioned way! I took this shot yesterday before the “New Arrangement.”

  1. Seeing the pictures makes us so excited to get to bring one home. We look forward to September. You are doing an amazing job taking care of them. I don't know how you keep up.
