UPDATED PICTURES of the boys

ok... finally getting to the rest of the pictures, these guys are CUTE!  playing with the big puppies, eating food, responding to us and each other.  

Weights and descriptions are from a couple of days ago, pictures are todays

Food?  They've been on softened Eukanuba mixed with raw dog food for about a week.

Thursday morning I wormed everybody in the household, seemed to make the puppies constipated, so afternoon and dinner meal I gave them raw dog food mixed with water.  They love it.  Starting to give them a morning meal of softened Eukanuba mixed with raw dog food, afternoon meal thinned with water, dinnertime I'm see what they need, softened Eukanuba or raw or a combination, eventually they will get dry Eukanuba to sharpen those teeth.  

They are all doing very well, all of a sudden they are big puppies!

today Bath Day and Pictures

Tuesday they are five weeks old

Some of the puppies got more pictures than others, many times it's either they are wiggly or the camera is not cooperating, they are all favorites!

Emmitt still acts the most mature, 3# 4oz, has lots of brown hue, he prances around & likes to bark, gets in and out of the whelping box at his leisure and explores without hesitation.  He runs up to me and growl/talks, he's a cute guy.

 see my little silvery chin?  that's my hair turning lighter

 Emmitt on the move, good name for him, he's always quick and personable

 hahaha, he looks so docile doesn't he?  He's submitting while I take his picture, he's also a good boy.

Every looks black, 3# 5oz, his legs grew this past week, he's tall.  Everly is on the sensitive, sweet side but once he's settled into a loving home with individual attention, he will be more decisive.  He gave me heck giving him a bath today.  He seems calm and obedient, I think he will be happy to please.   He usually licks my hand when I carry him around and tucks his head under my chin.  He eats too much, but that will change once the competition of the siblings isn't there and he considers that he's full.

 hmm, that does smell good

Entei 3# 2oz has a wht chin, brown hue, has the sweetest eyes and licked my hand while I was holding him.  I felt lucky to get a picture of him today.  I put him on the platform, let go of him, and he runs at me, spilling quickly over the edge.  I do this 3-4 times and he decides to hold still for a sec.  Put him next to La Roux and he's terring into her ear, jumping on her, running over to see another bone, growling, little bark.  Nothing in the room is safe.  He's not overweight but not thin.  This is an Everad puppy!  Outgoing and loving life, chewing on La Roux like a bone, I feel sorry for La Roux (14wks).  ha! now the bath ... yhat was one ticked off little puppy!  Neighbors probably thought I was bathing a cat or piggy, he squealed!

Ethan 3# has lots of brown hue,  bottom lip looks like a line of lighter hair coming in like when a women dyes her hair and it has a grow out line, he is very light around his eyes are turning lighter, top of his back towards his tail is silvery underneath.  Same as Entei. kisses and playful before the bath.  You can see this little guy across the room changing a lighter color.  He's a great little puppy!  Just like Entei but a little calmer, I felt glad to get pictures of him today, set him down, runs towards me and off of the platform.  He's now chewing on La Roux.  He climbs all over her, bites her ear she sqeaks, oh this is fun, bites it again, she shakes her head ... A big fluffy toy!

 see around his eyes?  very light

 the bone is the only way I could get him to hold still

 huh?

Ellington 2# 14oz, has the brown hue on his legs, silvery hairs starting to look apparent around his chin hairs, he's an active tell you what he things kind of guy, sweet and active.

Enrique 3# 4oz has the brown hue and lighter silvery hairs on his bottom lip, sweet eyes.  He's one of the strong boys, always out front and into things.  Had a bucket this morning as every morning, mopping, taking things apart, cleaning, rinsing, putting them back together ... here comes Enrique dives head first into the soapy water.  I ran him into the kitchen sink and 'rinsed well' I think he thought we was swimming, he was pretty quiet for a while.  Poor little guy, but I had to make sure to get it off of his delicate baby skin.  He's why everybody is getting a bath today.  He's a great little puppy!

 by the time I got started taking pictures, he was dry and relaxed

 he was inching to the edge to jump off, his tail is always up like his sire, Everad

Elyria she's calm and sweet, smaller than everybody else especially those roudy brothers.  She usually just lets them do it.  I've been bringing her in and someone else that won't challenge the puppy pool so they can get use to not being in a clump of puppies all of the time.  It's really making her much more personable.  Today I put her in front of the TV in the puppy pool, first with Ellington, but he was out of there, so then brought Etienne.  They are so cute.  They sit side by side.  Elyria looks up at the TV and moves her head back and forth to see the action.  Later - I'm still feeding and cleaning puppies - she jogs up to my face while I'm bent over with her tail high and wagging, I swear I saw a smile on her face.  She's so sweet.  Her big round eyes are getting some experience to them.  She's so much smaller I think she sometimes got overwhelmed but he's starting to mature and getting much more sure of herself.  She loves to lay and sleep with La Roux (now 14 wks old), anybody to cuddle with is fine with her.

Etienne she's Tigre's baby.  She has her face, he nauncalant-ness (if that's a word) like her momma.  She's in the group playing like the boys, no problem.  D'Angelo (Hilde's 7 wk old pups) is too rough, she doesn't like that, but otherwise she can hold her own.  The top of her neck is very light underneath the longer fur.  Like her brother Ethan, you can see her lighter across the room.  She looks like momma look alike to me at this age.

it's late afternoon and the big puppies (Hilde's) have their personality testing tomorrow they turn 7 wks old, everyone of those darlings need a bath too ... whoo-hoo busy day,
