Greetings from the puppies!!
Cute Things We Did This Week:
Chloe (Mary's puppy): I twirled in a circle. I also rolled over and over and over again.
Curly Girl (Kathy & John's puppy): I have this silly photo (above)
Curly Boy (Broady & family's puppy): I found the baby's toy and chewed on it, just long enough for Mom to take a picture. Then, I had to give it back.
Medium Boy (Alison's puppy): I discovered that the good old shoelace is fun to chew! However, Dad then distracted me by petting my tummy.
Bixby (Amy, Tessa and Katie's puppy): I got lost underneath Mom's long dress.
We are now weaned, since Tuesday. We still love to sit to be pet and then get our tummies rubbed. We discovered the leaves this week on the right side of the yard and we love to run through them, chasing Frankie! We just LOVE being puppies.
What a wonderful world!

We are on a schedule (built for five puppies) where we are go outside every two or three hours and have about 4-5 long playtimes every day with access to plenty of water. We follow the big dogs inside and outside and rarely have accidents where we sleep. We usually have feeding times in our crate. We go right "in" for feeding and sleeping times when kibble or treats are lined up in the back of the kennel. We go outside for quick potty breaks anytime Mom and Dad are going someplace or before bedtime. We also have quick potty & poop breaks at 2 am and 6 am. Making a schedule for just one of us will be easy in comparison.
P.S. This week we are going to the Vet for our first round of shots, another deworming and health check-up. Final payments are due by September 1, 2011 by mail or paypal (trinapalo@comcast.net). Otherwise, you can pay cash at pick-up. Mom is sending a copy of our contract/guarantee by email. We will be available for pick-up by Friday, September 9th or anytime after that (week of September 9-18th.)
