Day 24


Wow, It's been a busy three days!

I'm actually writing this on Monday.... but I realized that I had way too much to catch up on so I'm back tracking.

Over the past few days the puppies have definitely gotten more depth perception. They are trying to run and jump. Ususally this ends up with a bit of a tumble but that doesn't stop them. Their learning curve is wildly steep right now. Every day there's a 'First' for something.

Wendy came for her first visit. Glad I could finally tell her yes! She's been so patient (as have many of you who've been asking to come for a visit). She came on a beautiful sunny day so we were able to have the back door wide open. She also came with arms loaded with goodies. She'd been saving up treats for dogs and people hoping that we'd have the much anticipated Deck Puppy Parties. I'm afraid, unless we have an Indian Summer, that hope will go unfulfilled.
Sigh.



In any case we had a wonderful time. Wendy sat for an hour just drinking in puppy breath. They are just starting to interact with people I don't think that mattered though... Wendy held them all and started her new relationship with each one.




Cat came to visit at the end of the day. Boy puppies will be tired tonight! Lots going on today with Wendy and Cat visiting.




Puppies have now moved from the Transitional Phase to the Socialization Phase of
development.

We're going to start seeing them showing more interest in each other, people and the other dogs. Hey! You mean the world is more than nursing?
