The week began with the puppies engaging in product testing
spill-proof water bowls. They subjected them to tests under various conditions
and determined that the bowls can actually be substituted for other toys and
used for their amusement. The group concluded that when the bowls are inverted,
they’re really not so spill-proof anymore.
When they weren’t consumed with their Discovery Channel antics,
the gang spent much of their time outside exploring more and more of the yard,
running, climbing rocks and in one or two instances, learning how to dig holes
from Maddie. And now that the puppies have developed a better sense of balance,
they no longer stagger around like the last guests at an office Christmas
party.

The puppies have made even more new friends with some of the other
dogs in the pack. They’ve become acquainted with their dad Jazz, the gentle
giant. They were also quite intrigued with six and a half month old Haydain,
really just a big puppy himself who loved to play with the little ones, however
gently.
The ever-growing little ones have an incredible appetite and
devour each morsel of food that’s placed before them. This is much to Maddie’s
disappointment who has always looked forward to the left-overs. Since the food
is now prepared a little bit dryer, the pups tend to wear less of it on their
furry bibs. Consequently, they consume copious amounts of water to keep
hydrated. Of course, Maddie is still doing her part by contributing some liquid
nourishment here and there but we’re sure she’s counting the days!
It doesn’t take much to make a puppy happy. There are the basics,
such as mealtime and sleep, but the best times of all are playtime, either
alone or with each other and getting cuddles from their visitors. It’s
impossible to resist any urge not to pick them up and oblige.
That’s it for now, but be sure to join us next week
for another titillating installment of “Puppy Tales”.
