These gorgeous pups are nearly ready to leave us. They have been such a lovely bunch and we will be really sad to see them go 😢 here are their 7 (and a bit) weeks portraits! They are such stunning puppies with such amazing coats!
The pups have had a busy morning as it was time for their vet checks and microchips. Everyone was very brave and no fuss at all whilst having it done! Our fantastic vet commended us on how well they’re all doing and how even all their weights are!
When we got back home we surprised the pups with a little present. As Keiko destroyed their play tent, we decided to get something a little more robust… a play house 😝 which they’re thoroughly enjoying exploring 😁
A nice long video for you all! Playing in the puppy garden with half sister Keiko 🥰 they have well and truly taken over the house now as we have ditched the playpen entirely! They are really enjoying having all the extra space to run around and as a result are much calmer as they’re burning off all of their energy 😝
Crate training is going really well, they’ve been going into crates at night time since 4 weeks and are already completely dry overnight, they are all so clever!
It truly has been a pleasure raising these little darlings, they’ve all got such adorable personalities developing and some are just so funny too 😝
It’s time for the pups to start exploring outside! They were a little hesitant at first but with some encouragement from us, Florence and Bella, they all started to venture out! 🥰 in a few days they’ll all be racing to get outside 😝
We have had a busy weekend meeting half of the pups lovely forever homes, with the other half coming next weekend 😁
After breakfast playtime. The pups are very active now and growing like weeds! 😝 they’ve certainly found their voices now too, they really love the sound of their own barks 😅
Weaning is well underway and currently are having two soaked kibble meals a day moving to three by 4 weeks old. Top ups from mummy Bella are more spaced out now so it’s giving her more of a break, she’s thoroughly enjoying catching up on her sleep 😝
3 weeks old tomorrow! They are growing so quickly 😅 here is feeding and playtime. The pups are all very active now and up on their feet, it’s such an adorable stage seeing them start to play with each other 🥰
Bella continues to do a fantastic job of looking after her babies. She is spending more time away from them now, about 50% of the day with them as they approach weaning which starts tomorrow along with the first round of their worming routine.
Sound desensitisation is also underway on a low volume to begin with, we will gradually increase the volume over the next couple of weeks. It’s going to be a very busy weekend for us as we gear up for our puppy visitors next week!
