THREE WEEKS OLD! Daisy x Thaddeus Litter

The pups can see, hear and move about their area.  Many of them are learning how to wobble to their 'bathroom'.  I actually put in a bigger litter box this morning to accommodate them better.  Each day brings slight changes to their environment.  Sometimes, I add a new toy; different blanket or give them a bit more space. 

Yesterday, I actually offered the pups their first 'meal' - it was made of plain Kefir Milk with some small spoonfuls of Gerber Chicken Meat.  I dipped my finger in the mixture and smooched some on several pup's muzzles - they loved it and followed my fingers into the bowl. When I checked on them, several had their entire body in the saucer licking away!  Today, there was no hesitation about eating, see the last pic.  Are they 'messy'? You bet!  They spend quite a bit of time licking the gruel off of each other and then mommy comes in to give them a 'tongue' shower.  :+)

So lots of changes going on. Each day, the pups are getting better at crawling over small barriers, eating, seeing and hearing more clearly and searching for the litter box.  The next week will seem like the pups are on steroids with regard to development.
