Just a quick post to update you all on the

the pups. They started playing with each other yesterday. When I came in the laundry room,(yes they are out of my bedroom!), I heard faint growling and a few yips. As I watched, a little girl, Chevy, tried to bite one of her brother's ears. But she fell over before she did any harm. Too cute. (no teeth yet, of course)

The pups can all see, but still can't hear. They should be able to by the end of this week. Then I'll have to start being quiet. Great.

We are feeding them by bottle quite a bit as nine lively puppies is too much for Lila and she just lays there as they wrestle on top of her rooting around for an empty nipple (oh, there aren't any) giving me a very resigned look. I think mothers everywhere would recognize it and sympathize.
The first owners have come out and claimed their pups already. Rod was NOT ready for that, and I hope he'll do better this weekend as more people come out. :-)

Chopper still is wary of his puppies, but at least will now be in the same room with them, so that is quite an accomplishment. Hurray for Chopper!!

Tambry, Rod's sister is visiting from Africa and got up close and personal with Mercedes. Tam left with a hickey on her chin. We had a good laugh over that!

Hope to see you again sooooon, Tam!!! Love you!!
