The pups are now 3 weeks old and doing fantastically.
They are all around the 1kg mark, with the exception of Thumbelina who is about 600g.
The pups have their eyes open and can now hear.
They will easily drink 2 litres of milk daily and will soon have their first taste of raw food.
Today we have had our first visitors - Leigh-Anne and Tim from London and are having a little boy puppy. They were not meant to visit for another week but since they are already here and are holidaying very close by, I asked if they might like a sneak preview of the puppies and of course, I roped them into helping with a bottle feed whilst they were here.
Leigh-Anne also brought me some chocolate and a bunch of flowers, as well as a pig toy for Stanley (his favourite!)
Thank you to the both of you for such thoughtful gifts. Of course they were not expected but very much appreciated!
Things here continue to be busy. Life passes us by in a blur - there are constant bottle feeds, bedding washes and cleaning to be done. It is very hard work keeping up with all of that, studying for an exam and maintaining contact with 13 families!
I will soon be back at work for a few hours each day also.
No rest for the wicked! 🤣
Anyway, here are a few pictures of my perfect little puppachinos. I fall in love with them more and more each day.
