Me too momma, me too 😂
It’s been a busy few sleepless days here at the Spawning Shack. With a big litter I like to rotate pups half and half for the first couple of weeks, this ensures everyone gets their fill. It also helps out a new and learning momma dog. At first she didn’t quite grasp the concept of cleaning/stimulating her puppies and she would miss a few of them. Giving her a few pups at a time has helped her learn awareness of where each pup is, and how to better keep her area and babies cared for. The cleaner the welping environment is, the cleaner the pup is as it ages. The first 8 weeks has a HUGE impact on a dog. There’s sooo much we can do as breeders to set these guys up for success. A clean welping environment will not only prevent disease, but will help the pup grow up into a very neat, clean, easily potty trained dog.
Momma Ava is enjoying some me time, here in about 2 weeks she won’t get much of that! Seemingly lots of babies enroute 🖤

Look at that “place” and trust she has for these guys. I have worked very hard on my bloodline, I am so very proud of how stable and well rounded my babies are. 🖤

There is sooo much you can accomplish with a pup within the first few months of life. Here at Blue on Black we love spending a little extra time for one on one work with each puppy. We want to set the puppy up to succeed from the beginning. We install the software, it is your job as an owner to update and keep advancing with your pup!
This little lady has a great start on her and is ready to find her new forever family 🖤
Puppy socializing 🖤
Druagr helping me with some puppy socialization and confidence around adult dogs. The best part about having so many dogs myself and running a farm style life, I really don’t have to leave the property to give these pups an awesome start in puppy training! Plus all of my adult dogs are 100% trained and I trust them to give the appropriate reaction and respect to the pups. How you introduce pups to other dogs at a young age will play a HUGE part in their relationship with dogs later on. If you let you puppy get bullied and tumbled, you could end up with a very timid or reactive dog.
These pups may expect to be tucked in and sung to sleep when they go home 😆

Alekos is sooo good with the kiddos and wants to be right by them no matter what!
A stable, loving, natural protector is what we strive for here at Blue on Black🖤
