What a difference 24 hours can make. It is very easy to tell they are all now on solids. Although Casanova had bottles for the first few meals, once he was back on track he stopped wanting the top up. Weighing them this morning, some of the gains were so good that my Mistress had to check twice that she\u2019d got the right puppy. Cinderella is now the heaviest. She didn\u2019t have any help from a bottle, she only had the solids she ate herself and her mother\u2019s milk. She gained 200g to reach 2190g. Then Cracker comes in at 2140g, having added 170g. Like Cinderella she is very happy to be moving onto a solid diet. Then comes Chekov. His gain is not so great, but that is because he was doing ok at getting milk before and had started to lap solids as soon as they were offered. He gained 70g to reach 2130g. I am proud to say that Casanova has totally made up the lost ground and is very happy to reach 2000g. He has added 200g since yesterday. Cosette has almost reached the 2kg mark. She added 170g to reach 1980g. Then there is little Cuddles. She is doing fine and added 110g to reach 1720g. She is well on track and will catch up in her own good time.<\/p>\n
They have a few different toys in the pen today, which is great as they are starting to play for a few minutes after eating. They aren\u2019t awake very long but it\u2019s fun to watch them. I\u2019ll try to capture that on video for you for tomorrow. Today\u2019s video is them helping themselves to food and you can find it here http:\/\/youtu.be\/daAvJi-DzNo<\/a><\/p>\n Alfie\u2019s Diary \u2013 the Book is available at Amazon UK –https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/dp\/B00583ZGSA<\/a><\/p>\n You can find short stories to read at www.alfiedog.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
