Pearl's pups at five weeks!

This candy container was just the right fit for petite Fudge Girl.  3 3/4 lbs.
Green Boy was overflowing in the same container but not by much!  4 1/4 lbs.
A red basket was necessary for hefty Rainbow Girl. 5 1/4 lbs.
Same for Blue Boy.  The caramels tower over their chocolate siblings.  5 3/4 lbs.

Genetics always intrigues me.  The caramels so favor their dad and the chocolates their mom - split right down the middle evenly including the gender.   I will say, however, that the above four are the floppiest puppies ever.  When you flip them over to rub their bellies, they just melt.  What a sweet, sweet bunch!!  :+)

Their coats are lovely as well with the caramels being fluffy, soft and 'light'; and the chocolates feeling silky/slippery like a chenille bedspread. 

They are eating with gusto now and once done, then play like crazy for about 10 minutes.  After expending all that energy, they rest.  Pearl is feeding less and less and will soon be with her guardians full time.  Once Pearl returns to her home,  my other adults will continue teaching the pups dog language and keep them entertained.  :+)
