2 weeks old!

Puppies are two weeks old today!  They are walking more and more. Now most of them can manage a few steps before falling over.  The large bi black female and sable male both really seem to have mastered walking. As soon as Spryte jumps into the box all of them start stumbling around trying to get at the food.  They are getting much more coordinated with the whole process everyday.

Spryte sleeps in the room with the puppies each night, that way she can feed them, keep them warm and she knows they are safe. But every morning between 6-7 am I am woken by a very mournful BAWHOOOOO! BAWHOOOOO!  That would be Spryte in a full out howl! Neck arched right back, head to the sky.  She is letting me know she needs to pee and she is tired of looking after puppies.  After her potty break she jumps into bed with us, takes over our pillows and goes to sleep.  Spryte thinks puppy raising is hard work and she needs her beauty sleep too.

To all the new owners reading this, I apologise now if your future puppy is a howler.  Monkey see, Monkey do!

Pics and videos at 14 days old.  Only two more days of the bio sensor program left and then onto the next phase in puppy rearing.
