Of course puppies are HUGE time wasters! I sit and stare and fiddle half my life away....
You would think that, as these little slugs are only about 3 days old, they would just lie there and squeak and drink and poop and be shuffled around by mom... think again!
They each seem to have little quirks starting to show....
Mariah
...besides the screaming when she wants something, when she drinks she is a thug, climbs on everyone and if they are not attached to a teat, they get shoved out of the way and she takes over. If they are attached she rolls onto her back and slides down the pile having a little tantrum
Prince Harry
He appears to be a sweetie, but keeps disappearing! One moment he is drinking, and the next he is in the corner of the whelping box. I turn and straighten something and all of a sudden he's in the next corner... He seems to have some sort of teleporting gift... When he is drinking and mom licks him he moans like a drain!
Little Finny
The piggy in the litter. She's almost always on a teat. When mom leaves the whelping box, she joins Harry in a corner (before he teleports)...
To all the prospective puppy owners, I thought that you would like to see the photographs, videos, and updates of the Mackland puppies while they are still with me. These Border Collie & Shetland Sheepdog puppies are lovingly bred and raised in my home. This blog lets me show you step by step how your baby is raised. It highlights each step from mating to 8 weeks old. I hope that you all enjoy reading about them as much as I enjoy having them in my house!
