Six Weeks of Zoomies, Snuggles, and New Adventures!
Another week has brought so many exciting milestones! The puppies have spent most afternoons outdoors this past week, usually after lunch, as we begin encouraging them to do their business outside (and yes...it's working, haha!).
They're still a little cautious when they first venture into the yard, but within minutes their confidence takes over and they're happily exploring every corner. Tulip keeps a watchful eye on each and every one of them, always making sure her babies are safe while giving them the freedom to discover the world around them.
This week they've also started exploring the puppy tunnel and their crate, both of which have quickly become part of their daily adventures. Tulip continues to be an incredibly devoted mother and is never away from her puppies for very long.
At six weeks old, their curiosity is in full swing. Every stick, leaf, weed and bug deserves a thorough investigation and then another one just to be sure! They are active, playful, inquisitive little explorers with razor-sharp milk teeth, and they spend much of their day chasing, wrestling, and interacting with their littermates as they learn valuable social skills.
Tulip still enjoys the occasional bully stick, although lately she's been carrying it into the puppy pen and leaving it for her little ones to discover. It's such a sweet reminder of what a thoughtful and nurturing mom she is.
It's amazing how quickly they're growing, and we're soaking up every moment of this wonderful journey. Stay tuned.....
