4 Weeks 1 Day Old

They had their first upstairs play in the hall. They - both crews looked around as if to say where are we now and then proceeded to play. it is obvious at this point that Jeannie's crew is just getting good on their legs and they are smaller. They have now both reached the 2lb mark so they are solid but when you compare them to 8 day older pups, it is obvious how much they grow in a week. Adele's weights have slowed down which is normal at this stage.
By next week when they have their baths (oh boy lots of them), visits etc they will be more agile. Look at Adele pups this week and visualize what they will be like in a week. Between 5 and 6 weeks they do perfect their skills but not so significantly that they won't be playing well at that stage.
We have decided to give them that extra time and be placing the pups upstairs at the 5 and 6 week stage to be without moms after the family visit. I want to do them all together so they are all very used to being a team of 1.
How did they do upstairs? Check out the videos. My answer is really good. This duo has had to accelerate their abilities and they appear up to it. They also seem to like each other. We do not have any that want to take advantage of the size difference.
By the way rotund tri has started to slim out as she is growing. That happens when they start walking around.
These are truly wonderful pups!
