I thought it would be fun to do a weekly update on our newest litter of Cavapoos. To give everyone a chance to see what happens each week with the puppies and what goes on around here. I'm a bit behind as the pups have already turned two weeks, but will try to update each week on or around their birthday.
At about two weeks we see a little sparkle and their eyes start to open. Also their ears are now open and they're hearing sounds. They have more then tripled their birth weight! They all started out around 5 ounces and now are each over a pound! Fat, little butterballs.
Like any baby, they mostly just sleep and eat at this point. Mom is with them all the time except for potty breaks and a bit of time to stretch her legs. They still live in a large crate in the living room between the wood stove and the couch (right next to where I sit to write this).
For the first ten days or so they are weighed daily, but now that they're two weeks old, we'll go to weighing them just once a week. But when the bedding is changed or mom's food and water are filled up each morning or just when I feel like it, I reach in the crate and grab a warm little body to love on and talked too. Of course the process is repeated three times so everyone gets some lovin'.
