Red girl up walking around and looking for fun.  The puppies are much more active now and want to be where the action is–teeth are coming in so chewing is also a favorite, along with wrestling with each other.I think Blue girl is sticking her tongue out at us–she was the hardest to get a picture of today so I woke her up from another nap and I’m not sure she is very happy.I think this is Buzz, but it was so hard to get pictures of the pups today and I took so many pictures that after a while I couldn’t remember–but I’m pretty sure this is our boy and he loves to play with his 2 female littermates

Red Girl saying Hi–eyes open, hearing, and getting to move around more in the new, larger area.  Blue girl–sleepy and doesn’t really want t have her picture taken–at 3 weeks it is difficult to get a good picture of the pups–they move a lot and if you make a noise they hear the noise, but really don’t know where the noise is coming from. Buzz (Absolute To Affinity and Beyond) is still the biggest in the litter–and today was the first to explore the new–bigger area that they have just moved into.  All the pups continue to gain weight (they are chubby) and I can’t believe how fast they grow.  They are all wobbling around–not necessarily going in the direction they want to go (reverse seems to work really well).

Red girl enjoying time out of the crate and x-pen with mother, Sydney in the background with the other pups.  A little more head on picture of Miss Red Girl.   All the pups are chubby!!!  Sydney seems to serve up really good, fattening meals!

This is the second time the pups have been outside their crate and x-pen area.   The top picture shows the usual “pig pile” with the Blue girl on top, Buzz (the male) in the center, and Red girl on the right.  The picture above is Buzz in the center.  The pups eyes are about to open and their pigment is coming in.  All the pups weigh at least 1 pound (Buzz being the biggest, followed by the Blue girl, and then the Red girl).  Sydney continues to be an excellent mother.

Liberty and Tasheena are having so much fun in agility.  Liberty is also doing conformation–but it appears that Liberty likes agility a whole lot better than being in the show ring and she is doing well working toward her AKC championship.  We are so proud of all that Tasheena does with Liberty–conformation, agility, obedience, grooming, etc.    Liberty you are a very smart Bichon–you go girl!!!!  Tasheena, you are a very dedicated owner/handler.
