Day 2

Here is the gallery. I will add to it as the day goes on.

She needs a comb out and I will do that in a bit. She is confident and while pups are sleeping, she is chilling in her fave bed. I need to get another for her so she always has a clean one. Pups are eating well when they can sleep between feedings. 

Her bowels are loose which is normal. She is eating though she didn't eat overnight. She did eat starter mousse this morning - an entire can. She adores duck treats, I have to get more. She is a happy gal.

The pups were weighed this morning and they continue to gain. They can be often heard slurping while they eat. It is a riot. 

The black one is no longer black but a tri colour. The beige is bleeding through and under the tail is light. If you remember that pup appeared solid black when born with no markings. How things change in just a day.

These pups are interesting. Eyes and ears closed at this stage but usually you have to condition them to human hands. These pups, all 4 melt and snuggle into your hands. Without those senses, they trust and enjoy.

The videos will be uploaded soon and throughout the day. I am just trying to get coffee in me and wake up. Look at the shorts and the longer videos.
