11/24/09 - Up and Walking!!!

Over the past two days, the puppies have all gotten up on all fours! Some are a little shaky and others are pretty steady. All are trying to walk on all four legs. It is so adorable to watch as they hesitantly take a step and roll right over onto their sides. All puppies are really gaining weight now. Momma Sassy is nursing them like a trooper even though they have teeny tiny sharp claws that I am cutting regularly. Once their teeth start, watch out Sassy!! I think we will move the puppies next weekend to the large space in our Den. We use multiple X-Pens to provide them with a large area to play and sleep in. I get the privilege of sleeping on the floor between a desk, two doors and the X-Pen. A little cramped to say the least but it allows for more room for the puppies and my constant monitoring of them. I can't believe on Thursday they will be three weeks old! Time flies.... Keep checking the puppies photos page for our weekly updates by Monday!
