Twelve week pictures—Uncooperative Puppies
From left:
Violet, Oliver, Mitzi
Violet is not really this much smaller than the other two…she just slid down.

Violet is almost 11 weeks. She is a promising show girl.

Here’s Mitzi, formerly known as Pink Girl. She was fine in the bath, but she did not like the dryer.
Oliver is trying to chew my laces and untie my shoes!

On Saturday Sheri came to give Buzz a hair trim (he was so long she had to “sculpture” out a dog) and she brought with her new belly bands for Buzz–with SUPER heavy duty Velcro so Buzz can’t get the belly band off and tear up the pad. So Buzz wants to show off his new, custom made, Absolutely Bichons belly band. Thank you Sheri–the belly bands fit perfectly.

Violet is the new name for Purple Girl. She loves to pull the hand towel and dish towel off their hooks.
We didn’t get a nine week picture taken, but here is the family at 9.5 weeks old.
The Green Boy was just waiting for a chance to jump off the sofa. His mother and half-sister wrestle with him all the time. He gives as good as he gets!
Pink Girl likes to follow me around. The downside of that is she has gotten stepped on a few times.

Eight weeks have gone by quickly. The puppies are really an easy litter to raise. They have discovered the joys of running through the house, and they especially like to play with 9 month old Sunny.
“Let us out!!” They are ready for their evening romp. Purple, Green, Pink.

Cooperative Pink Girl. She was the only puppy who would stand still on the table.

I enjoy seeing pictures of
“my” puppies. This is Soleil, age 15 1/2 and LeDoux, age 14 1/2. Aren’t they beautiful?!! They live together with their wonderful family. Picture below is LeDoux as a young man, with his constant companion, Soleil.

The puppies celebrated the New Year by having a party. They seemed to enjoy all the attention they received. Since things have been a bit busy, 7 week pictures had to wait until 7.5 weeks.
This photo is entitled squirmy 7.5 week old puppies. From the left, purple girl, green boy, pink girl.
The attempt at a family portrait was met with frustration. The sisters decide to say “Hi” over their brother’s head.

Oh my! What a lot of barking from the pink girl. She is challenging the older dogs who are in their crates. Green boy decides it is more fun to chew on a toy and Purple can’t be bothered when there is a good tasting chew.

The threesome are 6 1/2 weeks old. They had their first baths. They did surprisingly well. The hair dryer experience was met with skepticism. The clippers and scissors affected each puppy differently.
The Pink Girl was a bit stressed out with the grooming experience. I expected she might object, but she sat very still. She was exhausted afterward, but is ready to go now.
The grooming didn’t bother Mr. Green at all. But grooming him was like grooming a moving target!
Purple Girl was a bit squirmy, but not too bad. She would not pose for a picture, so my husband held her so I could get a photo.
