How do they come up with this stuff? We witness a lot of antics with the puppies, but this one was rather innovative. Picture two puppies inside a plastic doggie crate with the door removed and another two puppies outside the crate, rolling it over as if it were a drum or a tumble drier. How on earth do they get everyone to buy into these pranks….especially the puppies inside the crate?!
This was another big week for the group as they went on car rides. There was some minor protesting at the outset, but remarkably the entire group settled within minutes and allowed the gentle rocking motion of the car to coddle them to sleep. One such outing was to the veterinary clinic where they received their check-ups, vaccines and micro-chips. Everyone was exceptionally well behaved, but we could swear we heard a collective sigh of relief as we pulled into the driveway at home.
No week is complete with lots of playtime and once again, the weather allowed for an abundance of outdoor time. The puppies had lots of fun chasing their mom around the yard hoping she’d keep still long enough to steal a snack, but Mango may just as well have been wearing an “Out of Order” sign. Some of the truly fun times were spent watching mayhem ensue when Maddie and Mango’s litters engaged in free-for-alls of epic proportions in the yard together. The puppies make new friends quite readily, so it really didn’t matter who they settled to play with and naturally all were willing.
It’s hard to believe how quickly the time has passed so we’re now firming up travel plans for some and getting them used to crates to help ease the stress of travelling. The puppies have been receiving their baths in preparation for the continuation of their journeys to their new homes. Since some have already needed baths previously due to their capers in the yard, this procedure went very smoothly, without complaint.
They are truly an adorable bunch and we have been treasuring our remaining days together with each and every one of them. So long, little ones. We wish you all the best in your journey, but most of all, we wish you love.
That concludes this edition of “Puppy Tales”. See you next litter!
