The COLOURS are 5 weeks today!

Here is a note from Sam that has the COLOURS litter:

Pups are 5 weeks old today!

They are spending all day outside and come in at about 6pm. They are eating 3 meals a day with some of mommy’s milk inbetween.

At the moment I am finding it a bit tricky to assess them as they are all fairly similar in temperament. It is still early days so will keep the updates coming.

They are all very friendly pups and love all the visitors that they have met. Every day when I sit in their pen, they come running and climb all over me, like a jungle gym.

They are all very playful but at the moment purple girl plays non-stop. While the others sleep she is busy looking to get up to some kind of mischief. She loves to tug a bit more than the others. BUT they all little terrors, shredding newspaper and looking for escape routes.

They have been introduced to some sounds. I tap their metal food bowl at meal times and they learned that sound very quickly. They now coming running for their food.

I introduced a plastic packet today, all were inquisitive to see what it was. None of them shied away.
I also have my landlord working at my house and I was home while he was drilling, they were not bothered by the noise at all.Oh... and they are definitely used to barking, I have a few noisy dogs.

They have met some of my dogs and all they want to do is play.
I will be moving their sleeping area tonight so we can start with some house training. I have a small plastic grass patch in their pen and most of them have started going there to toilet. So that is a good sign!


5 week pics will be done this evening, so keep an eye in the blog!!
