Climbing out of the weaning pen

The puppies turned four weeks old on Saturday. Here's what they've been up to:

Getting teeth.

Lots of snuggles one-on-one with the kids (and adults).

Playing with each other.

Exploring new things placed in their area.

Lapping up water.

Watching me vacuum.

Several puppies came over to watch me use the shop vac. Peace was so interested she got her snout sucked in a little. She was unharmed, but unpleasantly surprised.

Climbing out of their pen with assistance.

Going forward:

I want to trim their nails again this week, and transition them to more solid food meals. I've started to introduce the puppy call, but this week they should be getting more familiar and more interested.

Their eight week vet check and vaccines visit has been scheduled for February 10th, which means I've pushed back their go home day to Sunday, February 11th.

I also want to bring them into the van, if the weather allows. It's been pretty cold the last few days!
