Short puppy playtime today. After 7 minutes, they were telling us they had had enough. We will gradually build the time as they grow and get used to snowy weather. In time we expect them to be like Zoey/Jax’s last litter who loved the outdoors!

We took puppies outside for a short outdoor play today. We lasted about 7 minutes before they began to shiver and we returned to their puppy house. Outdoor play does so much for the puppies as far as developing their motor skills, their confidence and it also is a great way for mom to interact with her babies. We have her wear a cover-up at this stage, so Puppies cannot nurse from her. They get one feeding a day from mom and the rest is puppy food. Starting next week, they will be completely weaned.

This is Zoey watching her Dads leave.

They come to visit once a week and she is over the moon to see them. She watches them leave and then quickly switches her affections. She loves everyone and this helps make her time with us easy. Good Girl Zoey.

As for Cooper, he has to get in on all the action that is happening, including meeting Zoey’s family.

Speaking of puppy character, some stand out for being bold and determined. Case in point is orange collar female. We have been trying to contain her but she has other ideas! When I was spending 1-1 with her brother, she decided she wanted some time too. While her small size allows her to squeeze out, it also says something about her personality because she has a brother, black collar, who is exactly the same size and he doesn’t play escape artist. The family who brings this puppy better be ready to be one step ahead of her!

Happy Five Weeks Old Puppies!

Today marks the day when we start to work with Puppies individually. We work on things like trimming nails, grooming and giving puppies 1-1 time. I love doing this because I start to see them less as a pack but more as individual dogs with unique characters. And that helps me to tell families about individual puppies when it comes to puppy picking.

This is what puppies look like after every visit!

Jax’s guardian family, Marsha, Cole and Nicolaas came to visit today. We were all entertained with puppies’ antics. Thank you Nicolaas and Cole for your kind, careful handling of the youngsters.

Moving up to the big house. We usually move puppies to the puppy house between 5 and 6 weeks, but with 10 puppies the indoor space was too small! So we transitioned the puppies today.

We start their pen small and then once we know they are remembering to use their potty trays, we increase the size of their space.

Attention- Country Lane Doodle Puppy Families,

I have included this training book with my Puppies for many years. But with the hassles/costs of importing from the US and the wealth of information from other sources such as You Tube, I am wondering whether it’s time to make a change.

Could you please give me your opinion? Did you use the book or did you leave it on the shelf and get your dog training information from other sources? PS- I won’t be offended if you say you tossed in the recycling bin😊

On today’s stroller outing, we met the horses. Spark, our two year old, was definitely interested, but a little unsure of these creatures. Lexie and Magenta were more interested in their food!

Puppies had their second worming today. We start with weighing and it was interesting to see their size difference. Light pink female, who was also first born, is our largest puppy at 4.7 pounds down to the little ones which are black collar male, 2.5 pounds, and orange female, 2.9 pounds.

Time to explore! Today was puppies’ first time outside. Between week four and five we use the stroller to give them a new experience and explore our farm. Cooper came with me to oversee the operation.
