From Tiny to Thriving
It’s hard to believe we’re already at Week 2! The puppies are growing and changing every single day. This week brought some exciting milestones.
First of all… the growth! Each of our little ones has gained over 300 grams since birth. That’s incredible progress in just two weeks, and we couldn’t be happier with how strong and healthy they’re looking.
Of course, that kind of growth takes a lot of fuel. Our mama dogs have continued on their high-protein rotation diet to keep up with the demands of feeding 19 hungry babies. Their meals include a nourishing mix of salmon based kibble, wet dog food, rice, eggs, topped off with some cottage or ricotta cheese. It’s safe to say they’re eating well alongside their babies!
The puppies are starting to become much more active and very squirmy as they begin finding their feet. We’re seeing those adorable first wobbly steps as they learn to balance and explore their little world. It’s unsteady, it’s clumsy and absolutely precious.
Even with all the wiggles, we managed to pull off our Week 1 photoshoot! It took some patience but we were able to get some amazing photos.
The puppies have also just hit big milestone: their eyes have just started to open! This is always such a magical moment. As their little eyes begin adjusting to the world, we’re also starting to see hints of their personalities shine through.
It’s amazing how much can change in just one week. Stay tuned for Week 3! 💛
