CHOW HOUNDS

AND

CUDDLE BUGS

It's hard to believe that the kids are almost 4 weeks old.  While Syd and his big brother are having a good cuddle, the rest of the puppies are busy having a snack.  Syd is up to 14 ounces, while the rest weigh between 26 & 30 ounces but he's making great progress.  No more nighttime feedings (YAY!!) and he's eating formula and cereal out of a bowl, no more tube feeding!

Puppies are here!

Mattie went into labor on Tuesday and our puppies were born around noon.  We have 4 boys and 2 girls, 3 Blenheims and 3 tricolors.  All are doing well.

The puppies are out of our girl Mattie (Can. CH Hillwood Fade to Black and CH. Sheeba Emerald King) and we are very pleased with the  litter.

The 2 girls are on the left and the boys one the right.  As you can see, we have one tiny boy, he is doing well in spite of being half as big as the rest.  He is back to his birth weight and getting supplemented every 3 hours.  In spite of his size, he is just as busy as the others.  Time will tell how he turns out.  Sleep has been a rarity this week but I will survive.
