Heaven's Puppy Tales

September 15th- Heaven's puppies had a great vet visit. They are already 6 weeks old! They went outside for the first time (other than for the ride to the vet). Some were nervous and some enjoyed the adventure.

The puppies are eating wet food once a day now. By the end of the weekend they will be on dry food only.

Dont forget to get all of your supplies and food. Here is a list that you may find helpful.

Please be aware that your puppy should not go anywhere non-vaccinated pets could be until they are fully vaccinated. Discuss this with your vet during your puppy's first vet visit. Such places to avoid include pet stores, dog parks, puppy classes, rest stops, etc.

September 2nd- Where do I begin... Well, a long story short we are blessed to have Heaven still with us. Tuesday morning she quickly became very sick. She spent several days at the emergency vet. So greatful for the wonderful vets that took care of her. She is home and healing. She had a very bad case of mastitis.

The puppies are doing well with some formula mixed in their wet food. They have even started snacking on some dry food. They are doing so great with their litter box. Such great puppies. They enjoy their play time in the playpen.

September 9th - Legacy's puppies are eating some dry food in between wet food. They are using the litter box now. Appreciate that! They are happy puppies. All smiles. So squishy! They figured out how to leave the whelping box so Legacy is nursing on a schedule now. She does not like to be too far from them. She is a very affectionate mommy. She likes to snuggle with them.

September 2nd - Legacy's puppies are like slugs. They play some but mostly they eat and sleep and eat more. FAT puppies!

Nickel did find his way out of the welping box. Not sure if it was by accident. We will leave the door open still for mom to come and go when she likes. If he figures out there is a world out there worth exploring the door gets closed and nursing will be on a schedule. There is a litter box in their whelping box now but they ignore it. No interest.

Legacy ventures into Legend's whelping box to steal toys and bring them to her puppies. So funny to watch her do that.

The puppies had their first taste of puppy food on Tuesday. They will have wet food 2 times a day for now. It is water soaked and warmed dry food. We feed Purina Pro Plan Focus Large Breed puppy food. Check out this video of them eating puppy food.

August 26th - Legacy's puppies are moving around more. There eyes are wide open. They still do not like to be hot. Their coats are very thick even at this young age.

We lost our sweet Bedrock this week. No matter how many puppies we raise, it still hurts so much to lose one. Rest in peace sweet boy.

On a happier note, the pictures were so cute this week. Taking the weekly pictures and updating the website consumes the majority of the weekend. I know families look forward to it and we enjoy seeing how the puppies grow and change in just a week. I how you enjoy this video of Creek and Parmesan as much as we did. Thanks to Eric Paslay for allowing his song to be used on YouTube. It happened to be on the radio while we were taking these pictures.

August 20th - Legacy's puppies are starting to open their eyes. They seem to be more hot natured than the other puppies. They were pretty fussy with the heater on so that is off for them now. They eat and then spread out to sleep rather than pile up on each other.

August 16th - Legacy had her puppies on August 8th. The puppies are doing great. Eating well. They all pretty much look like little piggys. This is her first litter. She likes to bark at me in the middle of the night to let me know she needs to go out. Who needs sleep anyways...

Legend's Puppy Tales

September 16th- Legend's puppies have really gained weight this week. They are right in line with Legacy's puppies but the shorter coat makes them look much smaller.

This will continue for a few more days. Their vet check will be on Wednesday. They will be examined by the vet and given their first vaccines.

August 27th - Legend's puppies are getting bigger and stronger. They like to crawl under the blanket. That makes counting puppies every few minuts like a game. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, wait... missing one. Oh, There they are. The lump under the blanket in the middle of the whelping box. Sigh... Legend is a helicopter mom. She doesn't get far from them.
