August 19…….Ruska’s puppies are three weeks old today
LOOKING BACK
Three weeks old and oh how they have grown! They now look like “Mini Dogs”. This week, puppies have been progressing rapidly. Their eyes are fully opened and vision is improving. Ears have started to open but they are not yet hearing well. Their hind legs have become much stronger and they have been practicing walking on all fours. Puppies are much more aware of their surroundings and have begun to play with each other. They continue to sleep much of the time as they develop.
LOOKING AHEAD TO WEEK FOUR
- Puppies will still sleep most of their day as they continue to grow rapidly
- Puppies will play with each other developing important social skills
- Puppies hind legs will continue to become stronger as they walk more
- Hearing will improve with time
- Puppies “milk teeth” will begin to erupt.
- Puppies will be moving to the main floor sometime during the week
Ellie’s Puppies continue to grow
