| Day 1 |

| Remi is an amazing mother. She has kept all 10 puppies well fed and warm. She even allows all nine of the other dogs in the house to visit her puppies! |
| The pups have all gained another 6 to 8 ounces! Weighing in at a pound and a half or more at 5 days old.... I can't say enough about how great Remi is as mother. |




| Day 13 The puppies are now starting to open their eyes. The ears have fallen to the sides. The pups are mobile and crawling over mom and each other. |
















| THE PUPPIES ARE NOW EATING SOLID FOODS WITH THE NEW PUPPY TEETH. THEY ARE PLAYING AND ESTABLISHING PACK ORDER. THEY ARE LEARNING TO SIT FOR A TREAT. THEY HAVE HAD NAILS TRIMMED SEVERAL TIMES. THEY COME TO US WHEN WE CALL PUPPY! PUPPY! THEY LOVE TO SNUGGLE. THEY HAVE HAD SEVERAL VISITS WITH CHILDREN AND ADULTS. THEY PLAY ON THE FLOOR WITH THE MOM AND THE OTHER DOGS. THEY HAVE STARTED TUGGING AND PLAYING WITH TOYS. THE PUPS ARE DOING AND GROWING. THEY ALL WEIGH BETWEEN 4.5 TO 5 POUNDS! |
