Promise's Puppies at 3 weeks

Here are the puppies at 3 weeks of age. Their eyes are open, they are getting noisier, and beginning to investigate their area more. This coming week they will start playing more with toys and each other. Their teeth will also start coming in, so Promise is not as eager to let them nurse. We have one more week before the puppies will start eating some puppy mash.

Promise's Puppies at 2 weeks

The puppies are nice and fat, as you can see. They are growing so fast and will begin to get their eyes open this coming week. Their coats are shiny and soft.

Here we go... Promise's puppies are here!


That makes the litter - 4 males and 2 females. All are resting well

This male came at 3:00 a.m. and weighed in at 11 5/8.
This girl came right on the heels of her brother at 1:25 weighing in at whopping 12 1/4!

Number 4 is a male, smallest so far - 9 3/4 oz.
Three puppies nursing. The puppies stimulate contractions by nursing, so we put them on in between deliveries.

Here is the first girl - weighing in at 10 1/8 oz and born at 11:57 p.m. Another healthy puppy!
Here are the two boys nursing. They are already strong and latch on well.
Puppy number two is a male, born at 10:57 p.m. Both boys weigh about 10 3/4 oz - nice sized puppies and full of vim and vigor!
Puppy number one is a male. He was born at 9:45 p.m. Could be a long night ahead...

Promise and Puppy Preparation

Well she "fooled" us yesterday and didn't have her puppies. Maybe today will be the day?

Here is Promise showing off her fat tummy. We can feel the puppies moving and sometimes even see ripples across her stomach. So far, the waiting game is on - maybe they'll be April Fools Day puppies?
