The weeks are flying by, as the puppies grow and learn fast. By the end of the week they'll be weaned, so Mama Tutu is
getting puppy-wrangling help from Grandma Mazie and Cousin Solo. They are helping us out with potty training, by leading the
little ones outside and back in again. They're also helpful for playing with the pups and getting them tired, as well as teaching
them manners. It's great to have helpers!
| Grandma Mazie will do anything for love, but not - |
|
| THAT! After the pups had tried to nurse, Grandma was ready to go inside! |
| Cousin Solo takes over puppy-sitting duty. |
|
| What do you see, Solo? Good boy! |
| Serious pup abuse! We were cleaning up paint |
|
| chips (house being scraped for re-painting), so they had to be in a pen. So sad! |
|

Of course, we humans are doing our share of playing in the floor with the pups, too. It's so much fun! They were pretty
dangerous for a little while, but are learning bite inhibition now - much easier on my hands and ears! They're eating their
food well, either wet or dry, and are learning to holler when they need to go out. Watching them play is great entertainment!

| What are you pups doing? |
|
| Don't eat the water bucket, BB! |
| Minnie says, "Please let me out! Please!!!" |
|
| "Forget the others, just let ME OUT!" |
|
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
| "Hey, don't listen to her! Let us all out!" |
|
| June Bug with her head on Jazzy, BB behind Summer, and Minnie's tushy. |
| Look at that sassy BB, sticking his tongue out! |
|
| June Bug looks so sad! Yes they finally got out! |
| BB had already filled up, re-arranged the bed, |
|
| and settled in for a nap. Such a cutie! |
No posed pics this week, we'll leave that for next week -

|
| They didn't even potty in there, they were so sad. |
|
| L-R (by their heads): BB, Minnie, June Bug, Jazzy, Summer. |
| Eating "big dog" food very well, with a little |
|
| warm goat milk or pumpkin. Yum! L-R: Minnie, June Bug, Summer, Jazzy |
| Summer filled up next and took a perch on the box. |
|
| That poor box has served well as a step and chew toy for the pups! |
