Above is a very short clip we took this evening of the puppies as they raced to try to get their ration from their momma Vegas.
The litter is now 2 weeks and 3 days old. The pups are certainly taking on their own personalities. We are hearing more baby barks and little growls as they are beginning to be very playful and starting to play fight. It is fun to watch at they are becoming more and more active as the days go by. We will begin to introduce small toys and balls. They're all very much engrossed in our daily lives and are not sheltered from sights and sounds. Our goal is to socialize and incorporate the human element of their life, consistently, throughout their beginning stages of "puppyhood."
The litter has a consistent size and development, save for two smaller ones that are catching up rapidly. The two largest right now are Purple and Green, while the others are very very close behind. For instance, Red puppy started out as being the smallest and is now in the top third in terms of size. I expect many more changes in development as they mature in the coming weeks. Green puppy (largest boy right now) is probably the strongest of the litter... it can be easily felt simply by picking him up and feeling his girth and muscle tone.
Here are few photographs from tonight. You can click on any to enlarge:
