Time Flies When You're Having Fun!

The puppies are now just a few days shy of 3 weeks and are progressing beautifully.

Their eyes have opened and they are starting to play with one another. The noises coming from their pen are quite amusing - little growls, grunts and squeaks. 

Below are a few photographs of the pups, who have now started to tentatively explore the garden (when it is warm enough for them to be outside)

Although I am not allowing visitors until next week, we have had visits from several close members of my family and friends. 

Here are a few pictures of our visitors cuddling the pups.

Socialising the pups early is hugely important to me, particularly as some of the puppies are going to busy households where there will be children or working homes; it is therefore my aim to produce confident happy puppies that cope well with the unexpected.

 

Edna is no longer worried about leaving the pups so we have re-commenced our walks. It amazes me that after two and a half weeks of just the odd quick street walk, she is still as active and athletic as she has ever been. Below are a few photos of Edna enjoying Dartmoor as well as some of the more local walks.
