Naturally I had to update the Newbies. Because, well... because they're new. And I'm hanging out with Ritz intermittently too to make sure she remains sane with her newly acquired family. So far, so good!
But... that doesn't mean I've forgotten you or your pups. I'm trying to compile a mom and pup photo series for week seven. And although I love the advent of rapid fire shutter, at times I think whoever invented it should be shot. So many photos! But with constantly moving objects, especially two at once, the feature is definitely useful. The whole process though, time consuming. There comes a point when I simply need more hours in a day.
For the most part now I'm concentrating on cleaning feeding and medicating. The pups are pretty good at entertaining themselves.
Blue has finished his antibiotic regimen and goes in for a recheck on Thursday. He's looking and doing great... gaining weight and filling out his frame! I'm hoping his pneumonia is a thing of the past and that which he's already received proves to be enough. Went to our local Vet today, picked up vaccinations and got them administered. The first of a series of puppy shots done! And once again, my nursing skills put to good use.
Tails and dewclaws are scheduled for the newbies Wednesday morning so these doggies have me running. But all in all it isn't actually as busy as I thought it might be. Helps that the weather has improved. For the most part the kibble pups are dining on the deck and left out there for an hour or two following each meal to do their business and get some exercise. A quick shovel and hose off of the run and deck and things are good to go for the next round. Saves on shavings and work which is always welcome.
And tonight we celebrate New Years Eve... quietly in the comfort of home. Holiday bombs and missiles are noted =in the distance. Close enough for me and the menagerie of critters here.
