Look at Ellie’s Puppies…..They Love To Play Outside

We have had a busy weekend at L.A. Doodles getting five more puppies ready for their forever families. Tomorrow, Ruska’s last puppy is headed home with his forever family. As you can image, it has been much quieter in the morning with only seven puppies to greet me. Ellie’s puppies love to run outside and play together. I tried to capture some of their playtime in the video’s below. Enjoy!

VIDEO – We have a very large spruce tree in our yard that all our litters of puppies have loved to hide under and wrestle there. How many puppies can you see under the tree in this video?Go
VIDEO – The puppies love playing with each other outdoors. Watch a game of “tug-of-war” between some of the puppies

VIDEO – The puppies play in my grandchildren’s playground. The black fabric you see on the ground is the weed barrier that we laid under the playground mulch. Some of the puppies discovered it and tried to pull it up! We will have to fix it after the puppies have gone to their forever homes. Puppies are curious about everything! LOL

The puppies love their outdoor play time with each other. They are learning what is acceptable play when wrestling with each other. If they bite the other puppy too hard, the puppy gives a sharp high pitch yelp to let the other puppy know “that hurts”

We are teaching the puppies the difference between “Puppy Kisses” and “Puppy Nips” Puppies have sharp teeth and they hurt! The puppies are beginning to learn the difference; some puppies are more consistent than others but they are all making progress in this area.

Ellie and our other dogs are continuing to teach the puppies to submit. You can see in the last two pictures below, Ellie is teaching one of her pups – Blue Collar Boy. He is in the submit position (laying on their back). They are suppose to stay in this position until mama walks away. This puppy stayed – Good Puppy!

“Seven Weeks Old – Can These Get Any More Adorable?”

Ruska’s Puppies

Tired puppies taking a rest from all that exercise

Ruska’s puppies are seven weeks old today. The saying “An active puppy is a healthy puppy” makes these puppies very healthy. They are all over the yard exploring every corner. It is a two person job to keep track of them. I put them into the puppy enclosure (as you can see in the picture above) to give them a safe place to settle down and rest. They were not too please to be confined in the outdoors but, it is a good learning experience to teach them to calm down. Puppies have now made the transition to eating dry kibble puppy food today.

Some of my grandchildren came by for a visit and photo’s with our puppies

LOOKING AHEAD TO WEEK EIGHT
  • Puppies will continue exploring and playing together outdoor as weather permits
  • Puppies will continue learning from their mama Ruska, and the rest of our dogs Ellie, Brinkley, and Willow
  • Puppies will continue learning as the play with their litter-mates
  • We will continue to encourage puppies to use potty area
  • Puppies will visit the vet for their check-ups, immunizations and micro chips
  • Puppies will continue to get lots of cuddle time
  • Puppies will start to leave for their forever families at eight weeks.

Ellie’s Puppies

One of my favourite time in puppy breeding, is when I introduce our puppies to their forever families. We are looking forward to meeting them at Ellie’s puppy selection/visitation day this weekend. Until you meet your puppy in person, enjoy watching these adorable puppies play with Willow in the video below.
