The pups are so unbelievably active now. They are running around with a meter long sting with four 10 centimetre plastic sausages attached to it. Then on each end the girls playing tug of war.
The boys laying in ambush as their mother is chewing a bone. Hippie crouching at a safe distance barking at his mother who gets mad if they get too close and makes a lot of noise herself.
Pixie and Hippie rush after each other, Sweetie trying to dig though the basket. Tieka barking on the other side of the lounge door after deciding she would rather be terrorised by the “awful four” rather than lay upstairs on the comfy waterbed with Flecha.
Before all this they spent time in the kitchen, had a meal of chicken mince, did a wee outside!!! Ran around outside for about 20 minutes in the cold….. well they had the choice to come in so I assumed nature would tell to go inside before they freezed to death.
And just when you start to wonder if they will ever get tired they just drop and sleep and look like the sweetest puppies you have ever seen…….
Sun bear climbed up my legs into my arms, Pixie on my feet……oh wait, before we go to sleep just one last attempt to annoy grandma Tieka, all pups gather around her as she plays with one of their squeakily toys. Try to annoy mama Zanna just one more time… and after Zanna and Tieka’s abuse they decide they really have had enough for now and…….SPEEEEEEP. Thank you Mr Sand man for finally coming again…

The cord of the vacuum cleaner was more interesting than the vacuum cleaner its self! It doesn’t bother them at all, and I can assure you that a puppy that doesn’t get bothered by this noisy thing can stand any vacuum cleaner you present to them LOL.

If you ever have a puppy get one of these “sausage strings”!!! All the pups love this “sausage string” and rush around with it dragging behind them looking like proud hunters, they prance so proudly.

The pups are eating really well. They love everything I present to them so they will be easy eaters when the grow up.
My dogs, being kibble feed when growing up, can sometimes look really disgusted at new foods I present them and it can take a few times before they try something new. Sometimes I have to be creative, first making mince meat of it, mixing it with something they know well. But up till now, always after the first time they will eat the new article with joy.
But usually they like the new foods straight away. They love the variety and sit patiently in the kitchen while I “create” their meals.
The only thing I still always have to mince is fish. I use mackerel these days as Green peace declared this as the “safest” fish.
