My Mistress was looking at some pictures of last year\u2019s puppies and remembered they had a big blue ball. Now she\u2019s trying to find what we\u2019ve done with the big blue ball! She thinks it might be under the settee in the office and would look, if only Megan hadn\u2019t eaten the torch. She\u2019s going to try to move it later to see what\u2019s underneath \u2013 not a pleasant job! However she has now given the puppies a couple of smaller balls and found few teething chews in the process. At the other end of the scale the Christmas tree has had to be thrown out. Not the one in the pot, but the indestructible toy that the puppies had that turned out to be entirely destructible! It was past repair. Fortunately Polar Bear and Owl are back from their stay in hospital, although Owl has been sent for a bath before being allowed back to play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We aren\u2019t sure how much longer we will weigh the puppies each day. They wriggle quite a lot and it is getting more and more difficult to get a reading. Everyone has gained weight again varying from Beija adding 50g taking her to 3800g to Tucker adding 160g taking him to 4280g and only 30g behind Dickens. Basil added 90g to reach 4050g and Tess added 110g to reach 4130g. They are all good healthy weights, and despite the fact they are not thrilled by being on 4 meals a day and ask for snacks at both 3pm and 7pm which were their old feeding times, they are all doing very well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
