Even more changes....

Last week the puppies began to walk and opened their eyes.  This week it's a whole new ballgame!  Their ears are open, all are steadily walking, climbing and even on occasion, escape the whelping box.  That is, until we made some modifications.  No longer will these Houdini wannabees be able to climb out the door opening.  Today we started them on puppy food.  The food has been soaked in water and allowed to soften, thus creating a mush.  Tonight they'll be receiving their first puppy pedicure.  This will take the sharpness off and prevent them from scratching and clawing Hailey as they continue to feed from her.  As time goes on she'll start feeding less and they'll begin to rely more on the puppy mush.  With the addition of solid food we'll see them start to grow faster than they have in their first three weeks.
