The puppies have made the big move downstairs into their new space. They handled the transition really well and now they are living next to our kitchen and living room in the area. They are now exposed to all the sights, sounds and smells that come with household living. Kitchen smells of cooking foods, the clanging of pots and pans, the noise from timers and exhaust fans. The sounds of the t.v. and radio are all par for the course as well.
In the beginning we have blankets draped over the sides of their pen to reduce the chance of drafts and to ease the transition to the new space but soon those are taken down and the puppies can look out and take in what's going on around them.
November 20th - Gracie, Summer and the pups. |
We introduced the puppies to solid food this week and they dove into it with great gusto. It's a messy process at the beginning but it won't be long until they get the hang of it.
