The puppies are getting big and heavy now and are proper chunky little bears.  They play rough, but as they are all a bit sensitive like their mum (i.e. they are a bunch of big babies), there is much screeching at the same time.   If I dare to stick a foot or an arm into the pen, then I have at least 3 hanging off me as I try to retrieve my limb, and their favorite game of all is trashing the indoor pen, digging and ripping up the paper.

And they now have their new names, subject to approval by the Kennel Club.  Introducing ...

Infindigo Pippuri Aatami
aka Tito

'Aatami' is the Finnish form of the name Adam.

Infindigo Pippuri Kai
aka Sox

'Kai' is a Finnish boy's name.

Infindigo Pippuri Fiia
aka Fiia

'Fiia' is a girl's name and the Finnish form of mum Tuuli's kennel name.  And, of course, it's also her baby name.

Infindigo Pippuri Kaito
aka Tuulen

In Finnish mythology Kaitolainen is the son of the god of metals.  As that was too long for the registered name, we are sticking with simply Kaito.  And it sounds like dad Taito, see what we did there?  It might not have escaped your attention that it is also rather a lot like Kai... I can see some confusing times ahead for yours truly.

Infindigo Pippuri Talvi
aka Mini

'Talvi' is Finnish for 'winter'.
