1 week!

Puppies are 1 week old today! How quickly it flies and how much they grow. today as I was taking their 1 week pictures and Mr. Boddy (gray) was attempting to get up and walk away! He did not want his picture taken I guess. Here they are at one week.

Mr. Green - he has two cute Swiss kisses on the back of his neck and is the only puppy who does NOT have a white tipped tail. He is usually one of the top two biggest boys.

Chief (blue) - this big boy has a Swiss kiss and is long and robust.

Ms. Scarlet - She is a rather feminine little lady with a "6 hair" Swiss kiss like her mama. She seems to be petite and has perfect markings.

Mrs. White - is big and robust for a girlie, she was the first to make it from one side of the whelping box to the other on her own to find mama. she LOVES her food and keeping up weight wise with the bog boys.

Ms. Peacock (was pink) - is a sweet little thing though is big enough to throw her weight around.  She has changed outfits (colors) three times until we found one that fit her. :-) She has a fun personality.

Col. Mustard - is the "runt" of the litter but don't let that fool you, he is an awesome boy. All four of his pinky toes are brown and the rest of his markings are next to perfect. As of week 1 he is my pick of the litter (I'm sure this will change a lot haha).

Prof. Plum - is a super snuggly pup. His blaze is a little off to one side but it comes nice and high on his head.

Mr. Boddy - So far this boy has the biggest voice of the bunch. He knows how to get mamas attention, he is also the only one I have seen trying to actually walk instead of "swim" so far. He has great markings and is a nice thick pup.

Wadsworth -  this guy is a tank and is going to be built just like his daddy. He is the biggest pup and has a huge head. His blaze is off to one side and his rust is nice and dark.

That is the bunch! Aren't they awesome? As you can see their noses are starting to turn black and their foreheads are starting to dip so they actually look like dogs. :-) They all had their dew claws removed this week, (interesting note, only 4 of them were born with back dew claws) and the vet said they all look great! They had their first baths yesterday, and for the most part they seemed to enjoy it.

here is "Chief" enjoying the warm water and sucking on his own leg. :-)

Cinna waiting out the whole bathing process underfoot and hoping I don't decide its her turn next. :-)
 

We are going to attempt our first nail trimming tonight, eek. Wish us luck and we hope all is well!
