Puppy pile

Puppies are rarely still for long enough to get a photo that is not blurry.  I just had to share with you the cute wee faces, and the puppy yawn.

Eyes Open

Petra is continuing to do an excellent job raising the puppies.  They are piling on the weight.  Their eyes opened in the last couple of days and they are now two weeks old.  Their eyes are very blue but will change to the yellow colour as they grow up.  The pups are now wobbling around on their wee legs instead of crawling.

Feeding frenzy 10 days old

Petra is an excellent Mama.  She is very patient.  You can see the blurr as eager pups rush for another feed.

They switch and swap quite quickly.

And then pile up and sleep off their large dinner.

Pup Colour Codes

Petra's feeding of her pups has seen most of them gain a healthy 200gm each in the last 4 days.  For those who would like to keep track:

The BOYS collars are Black, Dark Brown, Grey, Blue, and Purple.

The GIRLS collars are Red, Pink, Yellow and Orange.

The Daily weigh is a favourite for family members.

This picture gives an indication of how small the puppies start out.

The puppies are now 2 days old.

Thriving pregnancy

Hunting is still a favourite adventure despite being pregnant.  She was so eager once she realised a hunt was about to happen that she wouldn't leave the vehicle that was being packed for the trip. 

You can definitely tell she's pregnant now although she doesn't seem to act any differently than normal. She's looking ready to feed some puppies which should arrive in a week or so. 

Vizsla's are such a delightful companion whether hunting or playing with one of the family members.  She's gentle and keen to be with someone no matter what the activity might be.
