The Big Move

I'm sorry I haven't been on much lately. I've been sick for quite some time so taking care of the pups and dogs was all I could handle; the blog had to wait. I did have the energy to move the pups to the indoor puppy pen though. They moved downstairs on Sunday evening and hit the ground running. They have more space, which they love, and a potty area, which they are ignoring, and all kinds of new toys. From the instant they were put in the pen, they have been exploring. New smells, sounds and sights entice their curiosity. Corey has free access in and out so they have their mom when they need her. I am still bringing them upstairs at night since it's warmer up here but they are clearly preferring the puppy pen.

Mr Black is gaining on Miss Raspberry--she weighs 4# 3 ounces and he weights 3# 15 ounces. They are both great nursers and Corey is being a sweetheart despite newly arrived baby teeth. The pups are also wagging their tails, pouncing on foreign objects and climbing on people. They are clearly feeling very comfortable in their world.

I've taken a bunch of photos and videos and will try to get them uploaded tomorrow. You'll be amazed at how much they have grown.

Off to bed,

Gayle
