Bronson and Tulips Puppies

Bronson and Tulips Puppies - 2 Weeks old

It's been two weeks since we were born!

The puppies are growing rapidly and time is flying by!

This week marked a milestone as the puppies' eyes opened and they began to walk without assistance. Currently, they weigh about 3 oz and gain about two to three pounds daily. Each pup is weighed once a day now to ensure they are gaining weight and getting enough nutrition. It's no problem for Tulip to keep the milkbar open all day and night for them.

We will begin feeding the pups solid fresh food mixed with vitamin supplements and raw goat's milk next week. Over the next several weeks, we will wean them off momma's milk. Therefore, Tulip will supplement their diet rather than serve as their main food source.

The puppies' nails are being cut weekly now and I recommend you continue this at least every three weeks.

In addition to providing traction, short nails also protect your floors.

Tulip now moves freely in and out of the whelping box, and when "room service" arrives for her, she promptly leaves the whelping box. Tulip has a tremendous appetite and is being fed four times daily now. Several times, Mr. Blue Bell has been attached to her and ended up on the bedroom carpet!

He didn't seem to mind and waited for me to "air lift" him back to be with his siblings.

Stay tuned ......

PS Check your inbox for an invitation to watch the puppies live 10 am to 6 pm approximately. Note; times will vary daily. Additionally, I will send you weekly information about caring for your new family member.

A Big Week for Dutch and Fiona's Puppies!

Two weeks old today! Fiona's puppies are now two weeks old, and what an exciting stage this is! Every day brings new changes as the puppies grow stronger, more aware, and even more adorable (if that’s possible). At this age, the biggest milestone is that their eyes are now open! Though their vision is still a bit blurry, they’re beginning to see the world for the first time — mostly shapes, light, and movement. Over the next week, their eyesight will continue to sharpen, and they’ll start recognizing their littermates, their mom, and of course, us humans. The puppies are also becoming more mobile. Their wobbly little legs are gaining strength as they start to scoot, crawl, and even attempt to stand. It’s amazing to watch how quickly they go from tiny, sleepy newborns to curious explorers. Fiona is doing a wonderful job keeping everyone clean, warm, and fed. Although she doesn't have the milk supply we hoped for, we are supplementing by bottle feeding at least once daily. The p...

Three Weeks Old — A Big Milestone for Fiona and Dutch’s Puppies!

Today marks a special milestone for our puppies from Dutch and Fiona— they’re three weeks old! The puppies have begun eating on their own, a big step in their early development. Fiona is still nursing, but less frequently now, as the puppies transition to solid food. Because her milk supply was limited, we’ve been bottle-feeding to supplement their nutrition over the past few weeks. Now that they’re confidently eating on their own, it’s wonderful to see them thriving and growing stronger every day. At three weeks, puppies start showing more awareness of their surroundings. Their little legs are steadier, their eyes and ears are fully open, and their curiosity is blooming. They’re beginning to interact with one another — playful tumbles, wagging tails, and the sweetest attempts at barking! And as for Fiona… she’s quite happy with this new stage too — especially because she gets to enjoy all the leftovers once the puppies are done eating! Stay tuned.....
