First Upstairs Without Mom

How did we survive? Well they went upstairs. They were not sure what was going on. They explored, they ran around and they cried a bit wondering what was up and then they settled in. I wish both litters were able to do this but maybe in a week. They are simply too all over the Roxie pups and we are correcting. It's just play but there is a size difference.

At 7am they were still sleeping but I woke them up, brought them downstairs to a freshly made pen and they attacked mom like they were leeches. Poor moms - both. They do have teeth. 

Adele did keep me up all night and when I say all night, I meant it. I am trashed and I had to write html for the baskets etc. It's a miracle that I completed it. 

Here are the videos. Please look at the timestamps as you can get a feel of what they were doing when.

Messy Pad Sleep

Oh yes they think it is great fun to rip up the pads so we are now spraying with Benefect. It works. Well, it works when I remember. Today I was foggy.

Darlah - Did Adele keep you up because she wanted to be with her pups?
I hope you have a restful sleep tonight. And I hope you are feeling better?

Yes she wanted to be with her pups so I would drift off and she would pounce on me.

Separation is hard on moms.

In the "messy pad sleep" video, the pups look like plush toys. So adorable, I want to hug them!
