2 weeks old

Two weeks old, and the puppies have already reached several milestones in their lives. For starters, they survived their first week when lots of puppies don't. I have been lucky thus far never to have had a puppy die, but it does happen.

They've all opened their eyes and they are starting to hear as well. Their noses have always been fully functioning - they have never wasted any time finding the milk bar, even when newly born!

They've even started walking, barking and growling. I keep trying to get these things on video and I'll post one attempt with the weight update later. In the meantime, the moment you've all been waiting for and visiting the blog for - the 2-week-old photos.




Junior
Looking a bit grumpy because I
woke him up for the photo call.




























Budgie
Making an excellent
attempt at sitting up all by herself.

































Kicker
Also a bit sleepy and with a damp face after his breakfast.



























Honey
Looking more than a little like the Andrex puppy




































Marilyn
The baby polar bear


























Kuusi
A very photogenic boy - I had several good shots of him to choose from




























Vee
Developing markings more like Budgie everyday. Good thing there are other ways to distinguish them from each other.
