| What a fantastic week we've had! |
“Taken”
We did the head count twice and came up with five each time. This had never happened to us before and of course we were most concerned. Mr. Ivy was missing from the whelping box! We feared he had been taken and that we’d have to call Liam Neeson to find him and bring him back. And then it dawned on us. A puppy has escaped the day before, so we promptly put it back into the whelping box. A check of Paige’s residence revealed that there were two puppies in it with green collars: Miss Kale and Mr. Ivy! Oops….wrong box. Mystery solved.
The gang had their first raw feeding of hormone and antibiotic-free meat with organic vegetables, pro-biotics, vitamin supplements including vitamin C, bovine colostrum and Puppy Gold for eye and immune system development, goat’s milk and plain yoghurt to supplement the feedings they get from their mom. They enjoyed it so much, they even polished the bowl. Of course, they are boys. Once that was done, the puppies stood around licking each other’s faces to clean up every last morsel. And despite the fact that the puppies have twenty-eight razor sharp teeth, Faith is a real trooper and is unfazed by that fact.

This week we removed the pig rails from the whelping box, so everyone has more room to stretch out including Faith who continues to do her due diligence in keeping the puppies topped up. When they’re not getting drinks from their mom, the pups have a bowl of water at their disposal to help keep them hydrated.
That’s it for now but be sure to join us next week for another chilling installment of “Puppy Tales”.
