This past week, the puppies were getting weaned from their mother, Kate. This has been a difficult week. They didn't want their gruel, they wanted Mom! This week, the food will be a combination of softened kibble mixed with human fortified baby cereal. Mom will have one last nursing session and she will be wearing a shirt around her so they leave her alone. She will still play with them.

Puppies are now 6 weeks old!

πŸ©·πŸ’™. PUPPIES .πŸ©·πŸ’™

Puppies bite, they chew stuff, they can keep you awake at night and take time to learn a sleep routine, they p*e and poo and sometimes do it inside. It can take time to house train, some more than others.

They can easily get confused about our expectations, they can get frustrated when learning about life and get shouty and bitey, they get tired and bitey and don't want to sleep.

They go through different development stages as they grow having constant new and different experiences, sometimes they deal with these changes sometimes they don't.

They make mistakes, they get over-aroused, the arousal makes them behave in certain ways like, barking, grabbing, lunging.
They just act on their impulses and they need us to guide them. We need to be kind, understanding and tolerant.

πŸ’• They're beautiful little beings, learning every day, having new experiences every day.

Humans brought them into the world, humans give them a home. We have a responsibility to guide and support them through their development with kindness and compassion.

Puppies are hard work but you must love the experience, the good and the bad. They are all individually beautifully unique.
We NEED to meet their NEEDS.

They are never with us long enough, before you know it you'll be walking out of the vets with nothing but a collar, lead, a broken heart and loads of memories. πŸ’” πŸ₯Ή

Enjoy your puppy, embrace the journey, make beautiful memories, even if they're sometimes little stinkers or goobers. πŸ™‚

Even with the litter of puppies here, and sudden rain storms or even high winds / tornadoes, the Hollytree team is keeping our Distance Program miles up. We are close to biking 4 to 6 miles a day, and one day we only do about 1 mile. The Summer heat will be upon us soon in north Alabama, and at those temps over 82 - 85, I will cut our mileage back. In May, we covered almost 180 miles.
