Day Before the Vets

Here is the gallery.

I believe Rain's milk is almost dried up. They try but not as long as usual and they are eating more food. 

Tomorrow is the vet visit. They will have a full checkup, weights, shots, microchips. Our vet comes here and it is not till afternoon. I will be posting their weights in tomorrow's blog. 

Then we have the Saturday visit and will be doing everything - well I will be to get them ready before home. 

I am deciding if it makes sense to do a bath the day before the visit or just when they go home. I hate to wash them with just a week apart. It isn't fair to them but I am mulling it over.

Rain was full out playing with her pups but when I grabbed my phone, she stopped. I did get many photos of it in the gallery. I just wish I had video. 

Big day for the pups. They may be sore for a day or two but by the time the visit arrives, they will be rarting to play with the humans.

I am going to miss this bunch. I am already getting packages ready for the pups to depart. I am tyrying to figure out tags on my 3d printer but playing the games of - does this work - does it not. It will go on their collars. 

Nathan has ordered food, treats, shampoo, grooming spray and we already have the beds, collars and leads for them. What Nathan ordered will not come in till Thursday. Usually that last week I am so busy I get no time with the pups. I am hopeful that I do get that last week with them and just be working on tags when they are sleeping. I have been working on tags all day but not happy with any yet but it takes time to perfect and with 3d printing them, they will be light and not pulling on their neck. 

You are going to have a lot of 1sts with them from the first snow, rain etc. I envy this...

Here are the videos. Be sure to check out the short videos and the longer ones. There are 2 links but that is how YouTube sets it up.
