Alda's pups at 58 days old

     

     
  • All the pups are healthy and seem more active with shorter periods of napping. I was not successful in unlatching the kennel door to get pictures of the pups without the bars, because they kept waking up.
  • They are split into 4 runs with 2-3 pups per run
  • They are socialized as a group, so as the group gets smaller the individual attention is increased.
  • The pups are more vocal by whining and barking when seeing another pup getting attention.
