The babies are changing so much. This week we have moved mom and "the kids" into our puppy play pen. They are still in our living room; our living room is not very big, but there is a nice spot right next to our staircase for the puppy pen. It is also close to the front door, so they're seeing and hearing lots of activity. This is all part of the socializing and training process which makes well rounded, healthy puppies!
The play pen has a nice bed for them, water and food dish for mom (the puppies have started to investigate the food dish, but haven't tried any yet), toys and the litter box area (which I've already seen them using!) The toys at this point are small human baby toys that I've picked up at our local second hand kids store, or things left over from mine. (Those are old!) As they get older, we'll introduce some more durable puppy/dog toys.
It's so cute to watch the puppies play and interact with each other. They go to the edge of the pen and sniff when the other adult dogs come over and they're barking and growling! They're getting more independent and mom is spending more time away. Poor girl needs a break!
Today we took a small video (which I'll try to get posted soon), more pictures, and the pups be getting their second toenail trim and dose of de-wormer.
Can't wait to see what this week brings!
