Week 4 Litter Update
Hello friends,
With only 4 weeks left until puppies are ready to go home, we’ve been kicking training and exposures into high gear. These puppies have an excellent genetic foundation, and we’re focused on nurturing their incredible temperaments with consistent training and exposures.
Training
We have moved from ENS and ESI training exposures to puppy massage (exposure to different kinds of touch and handling), Puppy, Puppy, Puppy protocol, early potty training and we are about to introduce them to crates.
We’ve added a new exposure area for puppies each week.
Week 2 we added a potty area along with a grass turf pad. By week 3 puppies were consistently using the potty area and primarily the turf pad for pooping and peeing.
Week 3 we added an outdoor exposure pen for puppies to play outside and get used to all new sights and sounds.
Week 4 we added an indoor play area in a different end of the house.
Week 5 we will add one crate for puppies to explore with the door open and start developing positive associations with their crates.
Puppies are also weaning little by little from nursing, and are doing great eating puppy mush and lapping puppy formula and water.
The girls at 4 weeks.
The boys at 4 weeks.
Meet the puppies
This litter is full of sweethearts (as we expected) but we’re also getting to see little personalities emerging. We’ll continue to update profiles on each puppy over the next 7 weeks. Click the button below to see individual puppy profiles so far.
