The puppies are huge ! Nearly a month old, and they are mobile and inquisitive, playing and eating. Little personalities, with blue eyes. Took them outside today for the first time, put them on the walkway between the shed and garage, but some still found their way onto snow. Shivvers and complaints, now all in the pool in the house, no more shivvers, but the complaining is loud and ear piercing. Anni only stays with them a short time now, with a pained look on her face when they all latch on.
The one little girl threw up, rather a lot, so it seems she gluttoned on the food this morning. Looking a little ill, but after some milk from mum. she seems better. Herbie did all the morning chores this morning while I was on the phone talking to prospective new BC puppy owners. Think 2 are gone, a boy and girl, which is good, we need the money as feed is so expensive this year. Herbie asked what we were going to do next, so I started reading him my to-do list. Didn't even read it all when he said he'll go look at hooking up the wood-burning furnace, while I can get back to my list ! Betsi came to get her milk this morning, and spent some time with the puppies. They are all super friendly, which is good. Next week the weather is expected to be a bit better, so I think I'll try get them acquainted with chickens, and maybe the sheep and alpacas. Had beef stew for breakfast, not bad. Well, stuff to do, people to be. |
