Puppy Pictures

Here we have Momma Sophie...as you can see she got all dressed up for the visitors :) Actually, the red shirt is to stop the puppies from nursing as they wean them to big-puppy dog food.

From now until about 8 weeks the chewing/biting kicks into high gear. This is where the power of the pack comes in and they learn bite-inibition from their brother's and sister's. They learn what is acceptable and what hurts...and if it hurts, they let them know it...we got to see this first hand as one of the puppies latched on to another's ear. She was okay but she made sure the brother/sister knew that she didn't like that. :)

Aww...look at them wrestling...High five!!

Now that they have their puppy hair coming in it's hard to see the collars...but I think this is one of the pink puppies.

After about 30 minutes of hard play-time they all crashed at once...

Purple puppy! I do believe she was my favorite today although they are still very much coming into their own personalities. She (as well as the pink girls) all seemed to be fairly mellow but not too shy at all...just what we're looking for.

I'm pretty sure this is one of the boys (judging by the bone structure in the face)...so handsome!!

Another purple-girl photo...

Exhausted little puppies...

And again with the purple puppy...
