The puppies are all growing and very active. Today was their first day in the backyard. They all were tired at the end of the play session, which allowed for taking pictures with minimal blurring.
# 4 and # 1
Sleepy #3 and #2
They are all eating solid food now, and I have cut back nursing to once or twice a day. I have had to correct Millie Jr. (No. 4) on a couple of occasions about not using teeth while nursing. The others have learned from these corrections.
The pups are also beginning to understand the concept of paper training. There have been no accidents in the whelping box for several days now, and the bathroom/paper area will continue to be decreased in size over the next few weeks. I hope to have them house trained and well mannered before they go to their new homes.
Not much difference in behaviours or personalities yet, but this will likely change over the next few weeks. All of the puppies are people oriented and big on tail wagging.
On Thursday we will try to make another little movie of the activity outside.

Oh, they are all *so* cute! Nice pictures! Happy puppies with wagging tails sounds lovely. : )
I absolutely, positively, adore #2. I don't know if you're keeping one, but if so, I vote for keeping #2!
Diane here (from Tap's litter)... just had to chime in to say they are beautiful pups! My husband has a crush on #4.
I think #4 is beautiful - perfect! And a nice black nose already too!
I don't believe that can be Trim's son (#3) as Trimmy hasn't appeared to sleep or ever tire for the five years that I have owned him!!!
