I've learned not to put too much stock in weights at this age over the course of a few litters. I weigh mainly to make sure everyone is doing ok and to identify any pups that might need some additional attention when it comes to feeding time. So far the pups in the litter are each holding their own. Some a little heavier, some a little lighter. I was surprisingly accurate, I must say, in my eyeball assessment of them a couple days ago. And they seem to be right on track with previous litters, especially when considering number of pups per litter. So Bravo to Majestic. She's doing a great job! Even so, I've been seperating into groups of two twice a day the past few days to allow the girls a chance to have an easy feed without having to fight for a spot. Jess seems to appreciate it. I'm sure the girls do too.
Each litter I tend to identify one pup as the firecracker. Although it's a little early, I'm leaning toward Yellow. She's super quick to come to a full level of alertness when awakened and is already starting to bounce around a little. The lighter ones, especially at this age tend to have the edge when it comes to agility.
Glad to see most if not all of you, are checking in and following along. i appreciate your comments!
And with that... off to bed I go.
One more day of work and I'm officially on Vacation! A staycation of course with the addition of my cousin who's traveling from Idaho for a 12 day visit! She doesn't actually arrive until a week from tomorrow just in time to help with the first of our outdoor adventures! She has no idea what she's getting into! Should be a fun time though! Fun for the pups too!
