A lot of things happened in the short 7 days , from 14 days old to 21 days old. Little ones what started the week from opening their eyes and yet crawling around, with very basic , instinctual behaviors - and now, end of week , we see wobbling on their legs, moving , starting to interact with each other and pay some attention to their humans puppies.
They look almost like dogs now, too.
New experiences were carefully introduced, one in a time - items and bedding/footing with different structure in the nest box to walk on, to touch and interact with, little " excursions" to different corners of the house, and even traveling in the big plastic tub as a choice of transportation to another room .
Nest area looks slightly different from mid of this week - as we started the potty training , nest is still kept small, but now is divided on "sleeping area" and "potty area" . We do see some attempts from pups to go potty in designated place.Good start!
We did hear first bark, too! And one funny growling sound. I think , puppies are totally amused by their own ability to make new sounds - one bark, and everybody is getting very,very quiet , trying to figure out where sound came from.
We will be setting up extension for the nest box today. Puppies are growing - and so does their little world, until they are ready to be out and make a whole big world their playground. Busy time ahead for us
