Chili catches some shut eye while she can
I can't believe there are only a few days left until the pups go to new homes!! It has been a busy week, with many visitors. It has been a fun week, with the pups being at the best age for fun and games. It has been a worrying week, with one of the pups suffering both a leg injury and a growth issue, but he is doing well and hopefully on the road to recovery. The pups finally have names and will soon be heading out to new families in several different states. This litter has been a joy to raise and I will enjoy these last few days with them.

Puppies napping at work- car troubles kept me from bringing them as often as my past litters but they did enjoy time socializing at the Academy.
Break time at work- I don't smoke so I take puppy potty breaks instead of smoke breaks
Mr. Green checks out the vacuum
The best toys are free! A sour cream container gives hours of fun
I don't know how Miss Blue can be comfortable having her face smooshed but napped for quite a while in this position
Sleeping pups are so cute! Miss Purple resists joining her littermates in slumber

Green enjoys a soup bone- the pups had them for the first time this week
Green shows off his wraps ( we call them leg warmers around the house). He is growing so fast that his tendons and ligaments in his front legs are having a hard time keeping up with the bone growth. He was switched to a lower calorie food to slow his growth and needs legs wraps for a couple weeks. It almost always corrects itself quickly with these precautions. After only two days on the wraps, one of his legs is fine and is no longer wrapped, but the other is coming along more slowly, especially after he injured that leg while trying to scale his xpen. Green was going to stay with me for a couple extra months anyway as he is joining my parents in New York...after housetraining and basic obedience is done. The benefits of having a daughter that is a dog trainer!
Faethe entices puppies to play
I like pups that can amuse themselves
Tug time
Miss Blue, now Moonsong Cornelia Marie
Well, the big news this week is Dawn, who broke her leg this weekend. All the dogs were greeting me at the door after I took some time off to go to a movie. Kila was bouncing around, landed on Dawn, and broke her leg. It is a clean break and should heal well, though it is in a tough spot- right above the hock on the inside of the leg. The tough part will be keeping her quiet for the next few weeks! She will spend some time with a vet tech at my vet's office who does not have dogs and can take her home for the next couple weeks until the bone sets and she won't be so suseptible to a re break if knocked around by the other dogs. All the other pups are doing well and I will post pics every few months as updates come in.
