It’s Friday
It is a warm day with lots of sunshine. This morning we took all the puppies and my grandchildren out to the deck for morning outdoor play. Our two litters of puppies are interacting very well together – they chase each other, wrestle, and play tug of war. When they tire out, they cuddle together for a nap.
Yesterday Willow’s had a great adventure – they went out of their puppy enclosure on the deck and explored the BIG yard. We put them on the step, and it was up to them to come down. This is a great exercise for the puppies to use their brains. Watch the videos below to see the puppies figure out how to descend the steps. They did a great job and when they finished, they got to run and play in the yard.
The big dogs love having the puppies join them in the big yard. There is lots of room for the puppies to sniff new things, explore, run, and play. This gives the big dogs teaching time with the puppies. Watch Willow teaching her puppies to submit. She will work with them one on one – the goal is for the puppy to lay on their back – the summit position.
It is still wet and muddy in many areas in our yard; the puppies got a little muddy but that didn’t matter to them. They had a great time and afterwards a long nap!
