Oh the Play of It

Tempie will miss the pups. She just adores them through and through. I so hope they come to visit. 

Be sure to check out the videos. I still have the upstairs play to upload.

The pups were a riot today and as I type Dennis has them upstairs again. 

You will notice the most dramatic change in these pups. They are forever evolving and are wonderful snugglers. They are all quite agile in both litters!

2 to 3 Days

Here is the gallery.

The pups are changing and you will see with their baths in 2 days and their visit in 3 days. They have not only grown in size but their colours re starting to really come through. 

The littlest boy seems to win in every play session except the one that appears black but has colour bleeding through - more each day. They are different in sizes but they are equal in play. It is quite interesting. Splash remains the largest or maybe not. We will have to weigh them before you come. The other gal uses her mind. She had a ball that she wanted under a toy. She batted her paw under to try to get it. She came at it from all sides and then decided to push the toy on top to get at it. She found a solution and appeared mighty proud of herself. They are really something else. What a huge change... and they will continue to change. They are so fun!

The Play

Here is the gallery.

The pups so enjoy playing with each others - with you. It sometimes is hard to get video and photos as they love climbing on your lap. It makes it fun to try to capture them. I try and try and as a consequence, I laugh. How can it get better than that?

So Cute

We love to snuggle, stare at you as if you are the most fascinating human in the world. We are also learning bite inhibition. 

Here is the gallery.

We play. Some of us actually roll over now to get our tummies rubbed. It's so adorable!

Wrestle

They wrestle. They chase each other. They climb and pounce on each other. It's a riot.

Check out the videos. They are already up.

I will have to weigh them if they will stay still. It's hard to at this age. You have to wait till they are tired. Even then, it is pure luck when they stay still. :-)

Feeding All

I placed up Tempie on the chair so they would stop feeding and she jumped right down to be with them. Oh well - mother love!

Pups played in this room till Dennis brought them upstairs. He is about to bring them up again. 

But we cut the cord with cable and signed up for streaming so we are spending too much time setting that up on our devices. So... shorth blogs today. Videos are coming! Guess it is worth it with savings.

No More Milk

Check out the videos. I am uploading them now.

Momma's no longer have milk but they insist on feeding. Tempie is finally sleeping at night. She is adjusting. 

They love, love, love playing with their puppies. It is so delightful. They are growing and getting really good at running.

Progress

All 4 Tempie pups hit the pad while we were playing upstairs and I didn't need to watch them circle and place them on. They just went to it and used the pad. Bravo little ones.

Videos will be up shortly.

Look at the eyebrows surfacing. So cute and oh my gad do we have cuddlers.

Splish Splash

This gal, I call Splash is an honest to gad character. What a beauty too. All the Tempie's pups are coming into their own. 

Check out the gallery.

Two of the pups that look extremely alike as they get older are a boy and a gal. Sometimes even I can't tell them apart at times but they are mighty adorable and play tackle with fun and exhuberence. The last one, the one that appears to be black with apricot bleeding through on his legs is the largest and loves, loves his belly loved and sinks in when you snuggle with him. Oh my gad these pups are mighty wonderful. You will see a huge difference in their capabilities.

They are sleeping later and later at night. Around 8.5 weeks they will no longer have food at night. This will help them to sleep toll 7am. This is the goal!

To Enjoy

They really like this mat but the hole is too small to disperse treats unless they are small and the ball is completely full. I am trying to figure out how to increase the size but they enjoy all the felt and fun of it all.

Be sure to check out the videos. I am uploading them now.

The crew runs, jumps, climbs. It is amazing how they perfect their skills from day to day. They are an amazing crew!
