Its been just wonderful these last few days. Especially since I clipped faces and the puppies now look like little 'people'. You can see their expressions and they are just so special!!
Every day when they wake up they barrel out of the whelping box and rush about madly, stop to pee and then continue to rush about like they're just had new batteries put in.
One puppy always manages to stand out. Navajo is the one. He really is my favourite. He will whine for attention but somehow, without even noticing it, I end up with him in my arms or in my lap. He's right here now. This afternoon after being out with Michael seeing sites, we got home and took apart the whelping box, rearranged the pen and put in all clean paper etc. While I was in the pen cleaning I had them running rampant around the dining room. They really were going bezerk out there. Freedom! You know how it is. They attacked my jacket hanging off the chair. They attacked my slippers (sheepskin). They rolled around on the rug. They peed and pooped in a couple of places...
Then I put them into the new pen, they explored the new decor.... and one by one they dropped off on their little 'bedding corner'. Navajo managed to fall asleep right next to me on the other side of the pen... making me feel like I just HAD to pick him up. So here he is... on my lap, head resting on my right arm as I type, his little head bouncing along with the keystrokes. He really is the sweetest. Not that they arent all... but somehow this boy has stolen my heart. He is sold already. I sold him on purpose or I would have kept him. But the good news is he's going to live close by so I will see him often and a friend of mine will be grooming him. His new family is wonderful.
Anyway. Things to do. Puppies to kiss.
