Afternoon all snoozing

Busy morning taking weights, trimming toe nails and letting out collars. Four days old and they no longer look like newborns. Their waist and butts are filling out nicely.
Morning milk coma
Noon close up . The biggest pup is Mr. Orange (chocolate), the next biggest is the Pink girl (chocolate). The smallest two are Ms Purple, and Mr Blue, both are black.
Smallest pups getting extra nursing time. They are coming along well.

More collars adjusted today. I have a name for the Orange collar chocolate boy - Chunk. He's the biggest pup and very hefty.
Chowing down and in the background you can hear Beckett snoring. The yellow collar girl arrived
late to the milk bar this afternoon and had a
melt down.

Now we have missing collars, guess I didn't tie them securely enough.
Snoozing after new bedding was put down.

Milk Coma.
|
| 11/14 |
The milk bar is way too crowded. I have to do crowd control when they all eat at the same
time. I have to tip Beckett back so that both rows are available. They are very determined to get a nipple.
Breakfast,
Close up.
All wiped out.
Scattered about.

Now the swimming pool is getting too crowded. Toenails were clipped again and most of the pups
have "big pup" collas on now. No more rickrack. Tomorrow might be the time for a bigger pool until their eyes open. The pups are no longer slithering
around the pool, most are up on their feet a bit to get around and their noses have been above the side of the pool. I'm surprised they can get their big tummys
raised up at all.
Before collars,
After collars .
