Wow, a full week has gone by and Phoebe's litter is doing great. I did decide to switch their sleeping quarters to a higher sided 'box' and Phoebe is much happier as she now has a 'designated' place where she can lie down and take a nap away from pups. It seemed that Phoebe insisted she be in the back of the original bed and kept moving it away from the wall so she could fit! Oi. Now, all are happy including me! :+)
For several days now, I have been doing Early Neurological Exercises with the pups and will continue for another week. These simple exercises help kick in their neurological system response to different positions such as head up, head down, touching their feet and placing them on a cool clothe. These exercises offer benefits for their development as well as emotional stability and health. Pups eyes do not open until they are approximately 10 days old, so they only smell and feel their momma. Doing these exercises brings a whole new dimension to their young lives.
Soon pictures will be more animated, but at this time, they mostly sleep.
They are so precious and certainly not having any trouble gaining weight! Nom nom nom
