Puppy Love!
Posted By Sandy Wilson on June 24, 2009
Wow, the boys are really growing and so are the girls! It is amazing how quickly they actually put on weight in just 24 hours, but they do grow rather rapidly when this young.
Today was their official Day 3 – Nail clipping Day! Oh my, what a chore to clip the nails for 9 wiggling pups! I can’t tell you how difficult that was – but it took me several hours since I had to wait till they were kinda sleepy and had their bellies full.
Here are some of the babies!

I was trying to capture some precious moments of these puppies with their mother. Arla is so tender and loving and boy does she keep them clean.

My goodness, these dogs get a tongue bath every 10 minutes it seems. But that is natures way of taking care of “business”. It is amazing to see such a tight bond between mother and pups. It is very difficult to keep mom away long enough to change the bedding in the whelping box before she wants to jump back in and feed her babies.

This is one of my favorite pictures with my son. He loves to surround himself with puppies and they seem to cuddle right up to him. I love the little one by his neck – too cute! Looks like they are quite comfortable!
Hopefully soon, I’ll be able to take some individual pictures as each one takes on their own identity. We have quite a few squeakers in the bunch, but some are more verbal than others – even at 3 days old!
