Well, I just read that there was a technical problem yesterday with the server of the blog, so we could not be reached last night!!
I totally panicked as I taught I would have to start all over again, since I am still having problems with my laptop ,but can't take it to my son for a total clean-up and re-format right now, so I am hoping it will last till the pups go home.
All is going well here.
Pups gained almost all 100 gram a day since the food, so I guess they like it.
And they like to drink the water also and walk through it. They are doing good, with poop training, the peeing is not that easy yet. They can't get to the place quick enough yet.
Teeth are through, luckily for Eli , not sharp yet!!
They are outgrowing their collar, so we got new bigger ones.
Personalities are changing also and they are barking and pulling tails and putting heads into their mouth form the other one.
Well they had their first feeding !!! WOW, talk about wolves. They attacked the bowl and loved it. They got their heads all wet from just crawling all over and into everyone and everything. And now sleep!!!
It started with a family from Friesland, a 3 1/2 hour drive and they were here at 11 am, bringing beautiful flowers and a toy for the puppies. Thanks Maaike and Ronas.
Small world, the people that came after them ,bred the golden they own, who is 11 now and his name is Faust or at least their male was used as stud dog.
Anyway, it seems that they liked all the females, so now we will let them grow and explore and see towards week 7 which one will be theirs.
In the afternoon the other family came with two grown daughters, who had great fun cuddling with the puppies.
Eli watched in from the outside in front of the window and then she would come in and do a round of smelling and getting petted by all and then she would want to go and see the puppies again.
Today the first people came to visit their puppy. They don't know which one yet, as they are too young to really see their character yet, but they liked them all and also the big ones!!!
Eli had no problem letting them in the box and carrying them around and cuddling with them and the puppies seem to really enjoy it also!!
Well all is moved to the living and not sure Eli likes it.
She was a little restless, but seem to settle down now. All three other dogs came flying in from outside and she kind of gave them the"LOOK" and that was it. Nature takes care of itself.
Puppy food was delivered and puppypacks, so puppylookers will get to take that home this weekend.
Sorry America, I hope they even let us take the puppypack into the country!!!
The new pictures will speak for itself. Still have to add the wood shavings box, but they have to be moving around better for that.
All the puppies are de-wormed this morning and did not like it, but it is necessary and needs to be done again at 4, 6 and 8 weeks and then once a month until 6 months, unless your vet has a different schedule.
It was done with dogmint pasta and it goes by weight and you just kind of put it in the back of their month!!!
All the eyes are open and I could really see it good by holding them in the sun, which was shining in their room.
No more heat lamp and so later this week they will be moved into the living area, where they will have more "running" space, which they will need soon, when they start playing with each other.
They really moved around very quickly this morning. Like they learned to walk overnight. Very exciting to see!!!
This weekend the first people will come visit their puppy, so very exciting!!
De-worming is going to happen tomorrow morning. I don't want to do it in the afternoon, just in case they don't react good to it. (never happened) but still, I want to be there and today was outdoor day, so tomorrow right with weigh in.
One male went wandering around the box and smelled Eli's kennel next to the whelping box and off he went, using his nose!!!
