We have enjoyed such a fun Holiday season with these little babies in our home this year!  There is nothing quite like a warm snuggly puppy for keeping a house fulll of kids happy and occupied!  All the puppies are using the dog door to go potty.  They are working on basic house manners--learning to sit to say please, eating dry food  and sleeping and napping in crates. They will all be ready to go home by the end of this week!

Introducing our sweet girls Merry, Holly, Joy and Ivy and our two boys Rudy and Bow!  They are bringing us all kinds of Christmas cheer.  Merry and Joy both have loose wavy coats and the other four will be curly like their mama.  Rudy and Holly are the tiniest little babies and Bow is the biggest--he will likely be closer to the 30 pound weight range.  

This week the babies started soft solid foods and they are learning to sleep in a crate.  They are all doing great with their litter box training and this next week we will introduce them to the dog door.

The babies are four weeks old today!  They have started potty training and are practicing using their brand new teeth on each other.  We introduce new toys and sounds every day to help enrich their environment and they love to explore.  This week they will start exploring outside and they will start eating solid foods.

Rory's babies are 10 days old now.  They are crawling around their box more effectively and they have all almost doubled their birth weights.  Rory spends a lot of her time caring for them but has started leaving the box for naps and time outside.  This week everyone will open their eyes and start toddling around on their little legs.

Rory has babies!  Rory delivered all six puppies in just over 2 1/2 hours on Friday, November 8.  She is a great mama and all the puppies look great.  This week we will let them adjust to life in our house. We handle each puppy every day to help develop resistant neurological systems.  Rory spends almost all of her time nursing and cleaning babies.

These puppies are 7 1/2 weeks and doing great. They are just about ready to go home! They are all using a dog door and are eating all solid food ad they've had their first set of shots. They are busy playing and learning about bite inhibition and basic dog manners with each other and with our other dogs. They have been a huge hit with our kids and their friends these last few weeks. There is nothing more fun than a pack of fluffy 'kanga-doodle' puppies on a summer afternoon!

Introducing Scout, Gem, Finch, Atticus and Boo Radley

We have been studying 'To Kill a Mockingbird' these last few weeks so we named these puppies after our favorite characters.  The babies are four weeks old today!  They have started exploring outside and have started drinking water.  They are using a paper area away from their sleeping area to go potty.  We will introduce them to the dog door this week and they will start taking themselves outside to go potty! They will start trying soft food this week are they are starting to get little teeth. We will continue to socialize them with all different types of people and we will introduce new textures, sounds, smells and toys every day.  Their little brains are rapidly absorbing all the information available as their hearing, vision and walking improves.  

Toddlers

5/2/2019

The puppies are now turning into cute little fluffy dogs!  We love this stage!  They are toddling around on little wobbly legs and starting to interact with each other.  We continue to hold and stimulate every puppy every day.  

They still sleep most of the time and nurse every 2-3 hours. 

Eyes are starting to open

4/26/2019

The babies are all growing and developing right on schedule.  Their little eyes are just barely starting to open and they are wobbling around on their little unsteady feet.  We will see huge developments over the next week as their eyes and ears open and they start to toddle around.  At this stage of development we make sure that they continue to have daily neurological stimulation and that they are held by both men and women to help ensure good attachment to all.  Rory sleeps with the babies all night and still spends much of the day with them.  As they become more active they will nurse less often and stay awake for longer periods of time.  

Rory's babies have arrived!

Sunday 4/14/2019

Rory had a quick and easy labor.  She started 'nesting' (she made a little nest area under my bed...) early Sunday morning and her first puppy was born at about 9:30.  All five puppies were were here by about 11:45!  This was one of the quickest and easiest labor and deliveries we have had!  All of the puppies were born active and healthy and all started nursing within just a few minutes.  Rory is a calm first time mama as long as we don't move her babies out of her line of sight.  She keeps them warm and clean and all six of them are spending their days napping and nursing. We will start gentle neurological stimulation this week and will progress with their socialization as they get older.
