Time is flying! Our sweet Litter “C” puppies are 3 weeks and a half old and slowly turning into active, curious little explorers. And we have soooo many updates!!
Milestones, big changes and growing paws
Now their eyes are wide open, while they are not fully capable of standing at all times – often looking like cute, wobbly toddlers – they are successfully pushing themselves up on all fours and taking real, coordinated steps. The first baby teeth began breaking through the gums, but we’re still safe from the “shark bite” phase for now:) They found their voices and our nursery is getting much livelier! The puppies are beginning to “talk” to us and each other, experimenting with their very first playful barks and adorable vocalisations. Also, they go potty on their own and no longer rely entirely on their mother to stimulate elimination.
Expanding their world
The new play pen area: our puppies have officially outgrown their original whelping box – which is actually a wooden playhouse! Their new play pen is designed to challenge and stimulate them: we have introduced multiple floor textures. They are now interacting with various motility items and an array of sensory toys. We will change or swap out at least one or two objects every few days. Several open crates have been added directly to the play area. This allows the puppies to voluntarily wander inside to sleep, creating a positive association with crating long before they leave for their new homes. Last but not least, there is a potty area and we are currently teaching them to use designated spots to eliminate.
Another big milestone: transitioning to solid food
The puppies are transitioning smoothly using a nutrient-dense – Puppy Culture mush recipe tailored for optimal gut health and structural growth. We basically blend ground lean muscle beef, baked pumpkin and goat’s milk. We’ve also started adding professional starter mother & puppy kibble.
Even though the puppies are diving into their new culinary adventures with enthusiasm, their wonderful mother, Amulett, is still very much on duty! She continues to nurse them regularly. Her milk provides crucial maternal antibodies and comfort as they adapt to their expanding world. Amulett is doing an incredible job balancing her role as a patient teacher and a dedicated mom.
