Me again!  Finally.  
The puppies are in the final days, hours, and weeks at our home.
I'd be lying if I said it wasn't getting crazy.
But here's a fun trick I like to play.

I like to let all the puppies out in the yard at once.

And let them run, and play, and fight.

And let my son run through them.

And then I get far away and put my camera on shutter speed.
Then I whistle and yell at them.

And they run to me.

Every time!

It never gets old!


Until they get to me and start biting my feet.
That gets kind of old.

But mostly they just start biting each other again.

Weeks 5 and 6


I should warn that this blog post isn't going to be one of my best.  But let's face it, it hasn't been real good in months.  It's due to my lack of time and lack of decent, fast internet anywhere.  But I wanted you to see how the puppies are growing.  Litter A turned 6 weeks old yesterday and Litter B will be 5 weeks old tomorrow!
So they are super cute and sweet.


This is Litter B enjoying the freedom!


This is Billy and my son!  

The "B Team" again!


Another photo of nursing puppies and exhausted mamas.

But what good mamas they are!

I got brave the other day and let all 21 puppies out!

It went surprisingly well.


They like the trampoline.  It gives them a sense of security I think.
Hubble tried several times to get up the slide.

Poor Annie!

Happy 5 Week Birthday Litter A!

The A Litter is 5 weeks old today!
Marley and Mater
They love running in the yard!
Especially when they can find their mama,
or a mama, doesn't really matter whose it is.


Then here come the kids, and a grandpa!

There's plenty of puppies for everyone to have one, 

or two!

Just relaxin' with some puppies.


The good news is, they kids put the puppies on the ground when they were jumping.
The bad news is, the puppies chewed on their shoes.

Getting Bigger




The puppies are growing and moving around a lot.
So it was time to move them all to different locations on the farm.

Here they go!

Mater and his brothers and sisters were moved to the outdoor pen.


When I start feeling exhausted, I think about Annie.
And I get a burst of energy.


They liked having room to run around.

Autumn and Abby were a little skeptical to venture out too far.


Bree

I think this is still Bree.

Luke and Autumn.
He's mad because he says he doesn't like her name.



Bo biting...someone???


The "B" litter!

Bailey and Hubble

Drew and Mater.

I couldn't stop at one picture.

I couldn't stop at two either.



This is what happens when they hear Mama!


This is what happens when Mama enters!

I don't know why I like to photograph them nursing.
It's a time when the sweet, cuddly puppies turn into super-fast, aggressive savages!

Then they head to the puppy chow and devour that.
