3 Weeks Old

Now 3 weeks old all the puppies are able to see and hear quite well. Their ears have started to fold down, like proper ones, and their eyes are getting less misty by the day. The puppies little whiskers are coming on nicely and all of them are clearly showing signs of having the 'Scooby Small Spots'.

During next week we will be starting to introduce the puppies to food which to begin with is a sloppy mixture of baby rusks, puppy meat and goats' milk, all mashed together. Mmm nice. The two largest boys, Bigsy and Fudge, both now weigh over a kilo with the other boy, Blaze, and Freckle, the girl, not far behind them.

A big heap of puppies fast asleep and

ooh look, we've all got our eyes open now

Finally here's the first piece of film of the puppies having their first real playtime. Now that they can almost walk we have started to get them out of their cage, after feeding, so that they can practice. The pups can only manage about 5 minutes at a time before they are ready to go back to sleep again.

Enjoy!
