Dawnie’s Doodles

Their eyes are starting to open. oh my gosh, aren't they beautiful

Our grandbabies came to visit 💛 We are so blessed to have so many children in our family for these puppies to get socialized more than the average puppy

It's been a wonderful first week for the puppies. I have no concerns as they reach their one-week milestone! They are all gaining weight and growing quickly. Interestingly, this is the first litter I’ve had without a runt, which is quite special. Every day, they become more active, and their eyes are starting to open just a little—although I believe they'll need a few more days before they're fully open. Harmony remains with them constantly, showering them with love and attention as a truly caring mama. We've also begun Neurological Stimulation exercises, and I’m happy to say each puppy is doing wonderfully. I'm confident these little ones will become fantastic family pets, known for their calm and loving personalities. Next week I should have a little more exciting news in my updates 💛

We have a lot of exciting news to share in this six-week update! The puppies are getting so big, and their unique personalities are now on full display. They are each incredibly loving and cuddly. This week, we visited Dr. Dan and his staff, who were thrilled to spend time with these beautiful babies. We received many compliments on how calm the puppies are and how well they respond to human contact. Dr. Dan confirmed that this is a very healthy, sweet litter. Each puppy received a clean bill of health and will be ready to head to their new homes once they reach eight weeks. During the visit, they also completed their third round of deworming and received their first round of vaccines. We also took the puppies outside to explore the play area for the first time. While they were a bit confused at first, they quickly began to play and truly enjoyed having more room to explore. We are very excited to have a few families visiting their puppies this weekend. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Here is a 5-week update on the puppies. A The puppies are growing quickly and currently weigh between 9 and 12 pounds. Their teeth are fully in, so they have transitioned from puppy mush to hard food, which they are really enjoying. Holly is still nursing, but she is beginning to slowly wean them. They have become much more active, playing with one another and enjoying their toys and puppy gym. They also had their first bath; while they didn't entirely love the experience, it went relatively well. Potty training is also progressing great, as they are now using the puppy trays consistently. Next week, the puppies will visit the vet for their first round of vaccinations. Once they have received their shots, we have several visits planned. We also are planning a big photo shoot I can’t believe they will be leaving us in less than three weeks. Time is going by so fast!

4 week update on the puppies. They are growing so much, and their sweet personalities are already beginning to show. Each puppy is very affectionate and comes running as soon as we enter the room. We have expanded their play area, added a play gym, and increased the size of the potty area. They are doing a great job learning to use the potty area and are enjoying all of their new toys. We have also introduced puppy mush twice a day, which they are really enjoying. Additionally, all puppies received another deworming and had their nails clipped. We are now setting up visits for local families to meet their puppies once vaccines and exams are complete. In just two weeks, they will see the vet and be cleared to play in the outdoor puppy area. We have already purchased a ball pit and new outdoor toys, and we can't wait for them to get outside and play.
