When you are a city dog raised in Manhattan and you come visit your mom and sister in the countryside. Not the strongest swimmer, but definitely very enthusiastic! #labradoodle
Morning playtime in the living room! Playtime in the living room has gotten a lot easier for us humans now that the puppies are really understanding the concept of going potty outside. We are having almost no accidents in the house during playtime. Often during playtime, we will see a puppy who has just had a case of the Zoomies change course and dash outside to use the bathroom. They have completely mastered keeping their den clean and only using the pads in there. So proud of these smart little bears! #labradoodle #puppy #pottytraining #labradoodlepuppy
This is how we carried 8 puppies from the car into the vet clinic. The puppies did an amazing job managing this new experience! All that time we played different sounds for them and worked with getting them familiar with the crate and the car paid off! #labradoodle #puppy #labradoodlepuppy
Playtime in the living room and Pluto stuck up a conversation with mom. I wonder what they are talking about? #labradoodle #puppy #dogsofinstagram #dogs #puppiesofinstagram
Puppy’s first puzzle and first time tasting puppy treats! #labradoodle #labradoodlepuppy #puppy
The puppies had a fun play date yesterday with their half-brother and his humans. Little Pluto is definitely sleeping well after the busy day.
The pitter patter of puppy feet when you call for them to come, it’s so darn cute! 🥰 #labradoodle #labradoodlepuppy #puppy #dogsofinstagram #doglife
Big sister Lumi likes to check in with the puppies. She is definitely waiting for them to get big enough to play with her. Recently she’s started dropping her toys in the den 😄
First bite of food! The puppies are eating a high quality kibble crushed and then soaked in a milk replacer with a touch of a puppy probiotic . Looks like they all love it! 😍 #labradoodle #labradoodlepuppy #puppy
Major milestone! The puppies slept through the night for the very first time! Everyone is super happy! A look inside their early morning after mom fed them. Lots of toys to play with. We try to give them toys that make different sounds, and one that flashes lights to help desensitize them to sounds and lights. The plastic bubble wrap is good for getting them used to having something over their head and the noise that shaking plastic bags make. Their den is starting to feel a bit small for them so in the next few days we will make it bigger. Once the puppies are exclusively using the ‘outdoor’ areas to go potty we will expand their living area. If you expand it too fast their potty training will regress. Yesterday we only had three accidents in the den all day so we are almost ready to expand.
Our pink girl either has a lot to say about the noisy new toy or she’s trying to sing along. I can’t decide 😄 #labradoodle #puppy #labradoodlepuppy #dogsofinstagram
Oh goodness! Another new toy and this time it’s much bigger than me! #labradoodle #labradoodlepuppy #puppy
