Today the pup is 2 weeks old–you can’t tell from the picture, but her eyes are just beginning to open (she falls asleep easily) and she is becoming more active. The pup’s pigment is still filling in and her hair is growing. Week 3 should bring a few big changes.
Only 1 week old and already getting lots of pigment on her face and pads. This little girl is a GOOD eater and has steadily gained weight–of course being the only pup there is LOTS to eat and Poppy is being an excellent mother.This could be an overdose of milk!!! On her back, up against her toy, under the fleece and against the warm snuggle disk–she is very happy to sleep. This next week should see her eyes start to open–the puppies grow so fast and change so quickly.
Buzz is in need of a hair cut–and he got one (I need to take a “after” picture). Puppy hair is not the greatest! This time Buzz was better in the bath and getting dry–I was only partially soaked! Buzz likes his chews and he is really a happy dog–he looks grumpy in this picture, but he isn’t.
Introducing the newest addition to Absolutely Affinity Bichons. Yesterday Poppy brought the new addition into the world–a little female weighing 6.35 oz. and screaming all the way. It took until about midnight for both mother and pup to decide they belonged together and settle down. Poppy is taking motherhood very seriously and is becoming a great mom. It is difficult to get a picture of the puppy since she is very strong and active–and a “chow hound”. More pictures to follow.
Buzz had a bath and a big boy hair cut a week ago in preparation for going to handling class–I have to take the picture quickly since Buzz will soon be a mess–typical male pup–loves to wrestle, run, and play–life is a big party and Buzz is enjoying every moment.
