Day 21

The puppies are just about 3 weeks old now and the time has flown by.  Tonight we moved their proper box into the lounge where they can start to get more used to the normal household goings on and integrate a little more with Hudson and Bobby.  H&B have been very good considering and although they are curious, have kept their distance, especially when Alice is around.  They sense she needs her space but Hudson will take a closer look when she is out in the garden.

They had another goats milk porridge meal this morning and this seems to settle them for sleeping more during the day.  Their features are becoming more spinone like now and they are looking more like small spins and less like large guinea pigs.  Lottie is the biggest and Morse the smallest but he seems to benefit most from the porridge meal and is certainly the most accomplished at lapping it up.  Monk tries to paddle it and it goes everywhere, Lottie is also quite good at lapping (being a girl I suppose) and Murdoch wasn't too interested but he was no doubt full up with mother's milk.

Today's picture then is of Morse, quietly sleeping.  He is the sweetest of the litter, not just because he is the smallest.
