Phoenix's Puppy Tales
March 2nd - These babies are doing so great! They are eating dry food and drinking water. Using the litter box like big puppies. Heaven likes to sit with them sometimes but those nails and teeth are painful so she cant take it too long and she lays on her belly so they cant get to her. They will be weaned soon.
Took a quick video yesterday. So much personalities! Vet check next week!

Kinzie's Puppy Tales
March 9th - The puppies are almost ready to go home. They are eating dry food and drinking water. They are catching up quickly with Heaven's puppies. I leave the whelping box door open so they can watch each other during playtime.
So... Legend's litter had a rough start when we lost those 4 beautiful souls. Early on I checked to see how many girls and how many boys we had and then gave them their litter names. Well... I was touching up Peak's color and happened to notice that HE was actually a SHE! I have done this in the years past and actually did that this time with Appaloosa but it was always early on. This time it was 6 weeks. It was funny because after the discovery she turned and looked at me like "I have been trying to tell you!" So funny. So I doctored up some of her pictures to add a little girl. :-)
