Expanding puppy horizons

Angel, Jingle (Paisley), Hope (Gracie), and Comet (Charlie) have all found homes. And since we're keeping Coco (formerly Alexis), we've only got two left. Pluto, male, and Peace, female.

So here are our updates this week.

I've pushed back the puppies going home from 8 weeks to 9, primarily because they all still cry for Mama to nurse them first thing in the morning, and she still lets them for a minute or two. I think they would do okay going home this weekend, but I think the transition will be easier with another week of weaning.

We took the puppies outside of the fence into the garden and orchard this week.

I put an extra tarp down for the puppies' indoor pen to give them more space when they are inside. Honestly, there isn't very much awake time spent indoors anymore, though.

Coming up:

First bet appointment on Saturday.
