Minnie's Puppies are 5 weeks old!

Wow, it is hard to belive the puppies are 5 weeks old already. Over the past few days the puppies have started teething and now they have little teeth.
This week will be very loud at our house as in the evenings the puppies will start Kennel training and mom will get to sleep by herself.

This is little Fezzik. He is a little charmer.

This is little Inigo Montoya. He is the smallest of the litter by only by a few hairs. This week he was storming the Castle (ok, he was just checking out all the new smells)

This is Westley. Westley is a very special puppy, this weekend his new family came to visit. Westley is very happy to have found a family he can call his own.

Our little Princess Sophia. She is just too cute!

This week the puppies will start to practice leash training so they can go to the park and play next week. The puppies also have their first vet visit on August 12th. Looks like we will have a busy week.
I took way too many pictures this week.

More soon,

Minnie's Puppies 3.5 weeks old!

Our little Puppies are starting to explore the world around them. But first things first explorers need to eat. The puppies are starting to eat Puppy Gruel. Puppy Gruel is made of Dog kibble soaked for 3 hours or more in Puppy Milk and then blended to a smooth baby cereal. Yum.

Little Westley is such a prince.

Inigo Montoya is growing quickly.

Fezzik is just too cute.

And our little Princess Sophia. What a group they make.

Minnie's Puppies are almost 3 weeks old.

The puppies are almost 3 weeks old! This is a picture of Daddy and Fawkes checking out the new kids on the block. Fawkes thought they really needed Temporary names.
We decided to use names from "The Princess Bride" for the boys.

This is Little Westley. He is the only puppy that is exploring so he needed an explorers name.

This is Fezzik. Fezzik has really great markings so far.

Inigo Montoya is the smallest puppy.

This is little Sophia. She is just to cute.

In the next week the puppies should start to explore a little bit.

Eyes Opening!

The puppies are starting to open their eyes!

Hey look! My eyes are almost open.

I can see you...

Me too!
The puppies can't see much just yet mostly shadows and changes in light.
Of course there are more Pictures.
Soon after their eyes open they start exploring the world around them.

Puppies, Puppies, Puppies!

Minnie's Puppies are doing really well. They still sleep most of time.

The 3 Musketeers.
If you have any name suggestions for the 3 little boys please send me a note, as we have not been able to agree on names yet.

And little Sophie.

I will have more pictures up as soon as their eyes open.

2 Puppies have found homes!

I just wanted to let everybody know that 2 of Minnie's little angels have already found homes: Our little girl and one of the boys. We still have 2 boys available.
Minnie and the puppies are doing very well.
They still sleep most of the time, but they are just too cute.

Of course eating is important too.

I will have more pictures of the puppies soon.

Minnie's Puppies Birthday!

The Puppies Have Arrived!!
Last night around 10 pm Minnie went into labor and an hour later the first puppy arrived.

The last puppy was born around 2:30 AM for a total of 4 beautiful little puppies.

Minnie had 3 boys in a row.

The last but not least was a little girl. She was just waiting for a dramatic entrance.
Minnie is doing great and will not leave the puppies alone for even a minute. We had to put her food and water just outside her nesting box so she would eat and drink.
