Everything went well with the whelping. Sushi has great instints and is very attentive. The puppies mostly eat and sleep.
Early Neurological Stimulation has begun. Each puppy gains about 1oz per day. The light puppies may not stay that way. Sushi's pups from past litters with light coats have have turned dark red over time.
Sushi is keeping all the puppies fat and happy. A few of the puppies have started to open their eyes. We perform Early Neurological Stimulation everyday.
All eyes are open and the pups are getting around on all fours. Their personalities are starting to come through as they interact and explore their suroundings with improved eyesight and mobility.
Weaning is well underway. The hungry pups gather round the food bowl and dig in. They are getting more vocal with lots of little barks and growls as they play fight. The puppies have had several interactions with different types of people and the puppies enjoy it.
The puppies are getting the hang of eating solid food. They love to play outside and interact with visitors.
The puppies love exploring outside their pen and playing with visitors. They still nurse a bit when they can but the majority of their food is puppy food.
The pups are totally weaned. They play hard and then sleep hard. They are learning new things and finding new ways of getting into mischief when left alone.
