Pup looking out beyond his small world, the warming box

DAY 11

Taking a look at the world.....

Interesting puppy formation.... all pups laying stretched out

Fully rounded tummies....

Contentment....

DAY 10

Slight opening of pup's eyes, tiny slits starting to evolve.

This puppy has decided to venture outside the warming box but does not quite make it. Mom keeping an eye on this one.

Bigger puppies with more vigorous sucking and kneading during meal time.

DAY 8

Rose has decided to take respite from the whelping box and make her own personal bed. After several minutes of nosing and pawing of the quilts Rose is satisfied with bed and settles down quit contently in her own space between my desk and the whelping bed.

DAY 7

DAY 6

Pups in warming box while the bedding in the whelping box is changed. Still small enough to fit .

DAY 5

Weighing in a tray the biggest boy just fits. As the puppies growth weight is exponential on a daily basis another scale will have to be used soon. The weights of the pups is recorded on a daily basis as noted on top of Rose's blog site right side of the column.
