Border Collies of Ruidoso

Eat, play, poop, sleep….repeat:) these babies at 4 weeks are starting to show of their unique personalities!!!!

Puppy Update – 4 Weeks Old! This Sunday our sweet litter turns 4 weeks old, and what an exciting stage it is! They are up on their feet and exploring their little world more each day. Their wobbly walks are turning into playful pounces, and they’ve started to interact with each other through tail wags, gentle growls, and even their first tiny barks. Personalities are beginning to shine—some are bold and curious, while others are calm and cuddly. They’re learning important social skills from their littermates and enjoying gentle snuggles with us, which is helping them grow confident and well-rounded. We’ve also started introducing their first “puppy mush,” and it’s as messy (and adorable!) as you’d imagine. Watching them dive in with excitement has been such a joy. We can’t wait to see how much they grow in the coming weeks as they continue to learn, play, and explore!

⸻ At 7 Weeks Old Our puppies are full of energy, coordination, and personality! They run, play, and explore with confidence, while continuing to learn manners and bite control from their littermates. They are fully on puppy food (no longer nursing) and eat 3–4 small meals a day. At this stage, they can start short, positive training sessions for simple commands like “come” or “sit.” This is a key socialization time, so we gently introduce them to new people, sounds, and safe environments to help them grow into happy, well-adjusted companions.

We’re getting bigger!!!!

Eating, sleeping,and playing!! Getting bigger every day:)
