Puppies
2012
4 Weeks
5/15/12
The forth week is the time when the puppies start to go outside. They have grown so much. They are like 'real' puppies; and want to play and explore. A major milestone is drinking water, they have to be watched very carefully to see that they are able to find and drink the water. So during this acclimation period they are never left alone outside. They also have to learn where they can get out of the sun.

Dar is checking on puppies after they eat
So far this little girl is wonderfully calm and loving, she loves to lick my chin. She tends to go about her 'business' without a lot of fuss. She is now exploring on her own more.
Such a cute little boy. Right now he seems like a 'tryer' to me. He does not give up. Look at his cute squahed face and his beautiful blue eyes. He is a very confident boy.
This is a curious and outgoing little boy. He was one of the first to venture away from the puppy pile. He is a very confident boy, he keeps his tail up.
Elvis a very steady boy. He is very tractable, loves to have attention, but does fine without it. He is a very good looking fellow.
Look how much Jonny has gained in one week. He is playing with his litter mates now, he kind of sits on them and they give up. He feels very solid when you hold him. He in interested in everything going on.
This one is bold and reserved at the same time. She has an adventurous spirit, but wants someone else to go first. She is very calm and collected. I love her attitude.
This is our smallest little girl, but she sure makes up for it with a big personality. She is very charming and loves to be picked up. I think that she would love to be a lap dog.
