Also today, it is Clary's litter - WEEK TWO!

Happily, I was able to get their pics taken and loaded.  All they really do is eat and sleep, so not much to report except they seem to be healthy, gaining and crawling about.  All good!  Clary is a good momma so, for now, she is doing all the work.  As long as I am feeding Clary, she is feeding her pups. We make a good team.  :+)

All of them have opened their eyes but cannot really focus yet.  It will be interesting to see if any of them will have blue in their eyes like Clary does.  Her last litter produced a lovely male with the brightest blue eyes ever.  He was so handsome!

The pigment on their noses will take more time to develop.  By about 3 weeks of age, they should all fill in.  Many breeders associate the puppy weights with 'mature weights'.  A general rule is 'if their weight is below their age in weeks, they will be smaller (around 25 lbs.); if equal (2 wks/2 lbs.) - they will be about 30 lbs.; and if above that marker around 34  +/- lbs.  It is not perfect but it gives you an idea.
