THREE WEEKS - Easter is coming! JONNIE X HOBBS

 With eyes and ears now open, the pups are just beginning to interact with each other, especially after nursing.  They still move slowly and wobbly, sometimes rolling rather than 'walking'.  

They are learning to use the potty box which always amazes me given their age.  It just shows the ability of these youngsters to identify where the 'bathroom' is.  As the week progresses and they become more steady on their feet, I will switch potty boxes and add small changes to both size, type and space within their environment.

Given that I am bottle feeding little Brown Collar boy because his robust siblings don't give him space at the nursing bar, I sometimes add some extra formula for the pups.  Introducing them to the feeding saucer will take some pressure off of Jonnie as their appetites increase.

As you can see, Jonnies' little 'bunnies' are welcoming the Easter season this week.  :+)


Miss Purple is 1 lb., 15 oz. at 3 wks.

Miss Teal's weight belies her size.  She is 1 lb., 15 oz. as well!

Oh golly, Miss Peach.  Biggest in the litter - 2 lbs. 15 ozs.!

Mr. Green is 2 lbs., 7oz.

Mr Red weighs 2 lbs., 12 ozs.

Mr. Blue is 2 lbs. 12 ozs.

Our resident midget weighs 12 1/2 ounces!!  With such huge siblings, you can understand why he needs to be bottle fed.  There is no way, he can compete with them.

Mr. Black is 2 lbs. 4 ozs.

 Here are some pics of them attempting to lap up formula.  This is a learning curve for them and they will become quite proficient in a few more days.  Then, they actually become such gobblers that in seconds, the food bowl is emptied.

Most of the pics have seven pups in them.  I do believe I snapped one with all eight.  :+)
