Clara x Clifford at 8 weeks. (Two posts!)

The pups have been enjoying their kitchen time immensely. They adore snuggling with the large stuffed Caterpillar that lies on the floor for most of the day. Many times, Olive is in the kitchen with them and does not mind them around her. She is teaching excellent 'doggie' manners which normally their mother would provide. It is critical for puppies to have this exposure as it is teaching them how to behave properly in a dog world.

P.S. The pups went for their first puppy shots today and all did very well! I was thrilled that not a one of them complained in the car at all - no salivating, no barking, no whining, no vomiting - totally content. :+) No parasites either as I had their stools checked. My vet said they were exceptionally easy pups to examine and handle. Way to go pups!!!

Red Boy, who is now 9 1/4 lbs., loves to grab a toy and run around with the others chasing him.


Green Boy at 6 1/2 lbs. still prefers to snuggle and cuddle. I am glad to see him stick up for himself now though. He wrestles and growls with his playmates but is definitely a 'lover not a fighter'.


And in true Hazel style, why should she sit when she can drape? Hazel is now 7 1/4 lbs.
HAZEL IS AVAILABLE FOR A LOCAL GUARDIAN HOME.
Please inquire.

  1. Hi Joyce,

    What good pups they were on their outing to the vets!
    And how cute in their Hawaiian outfits. It almost made me go search for my sarong! :)

  2. Putting them in those colorful outfits brightened my day immensely! It took me away from the cold and snow for just a few minutes, but it was a lovely daydream!!!

    They could not have been better behaved for their trip to the vets. What a pleasant group they are. :+)

  3. So glad to hear there were no upset tummy's during the car ride. I've only ever had one dog that would get car sick, and it was never fun when she had to go in the car with us. She was miserable, and the clean up was never easy. I would deal with it again if necessary, but I would soooo rather it not be necessary lol!
