We aren’t too worried about any of the puppies based on the weigh in. My Mistress has taken the decision to give them all probiotics and wait until later before taking anyone to the vet. They will only go if the problem continues. However, all of them have made good weight gains. Chekov added 90g to reach 3610g and is still the largest. Cinderella added 120g to reach 3540g. Cracker added 120g to reach 3420g. Casanova, who we already knew was ok, added 250g to reach 3260g. Cosette added 100g to reach 3160g – which certainly doesn’t suggest there is any real problem there. And little Cuddle added 140g to reach 2770g. She is the same weight that Aristotle was at this age and a little more than Addie was. Both of them have grown into fine dogs so she is on the right track.
Today’s video shows the puppies taking more interest in playing with the toys rather than just jumping on each other. All except Chekov was trying to sleep through the whole thing. He’s a very placid chap and doesn’t grumble when he gets stood on by the others or even pounced on. He just carries on snoozing as though it is an every day occurrence… but then I suppose it is!
