LOOK HOW WE ARE GROWING!!!

Even Teeny is growing --  she is back up to her birth weight (it is normal for puppies to lose weight since some birthweight is fluid) so that means she is utilizing her food and is now increased her intake to 6 or 7 dropperfulls instead of the 3 which she began with.  We did put her on Momma Jazz for just a tiny bit and she latched right onto a nipple and Jazz did lick her and recognized her as one of the "brood". Will put her on Jazz once or twice a day but cannot leave her there since we need to keep her super warm (notice she now has a "friend" to cuddle up to!). Right now all her caloric intake must be used for growth and not for keeping warm.




Here are the two patched puppies: girl is right ear and boy is left ear...



The boys (gray, blue, green collar).......


The girls (lite green, pink, red)......


The gang!




Will do an update on Teeny on Tuesday, and maybe a picture or two of the group, but probably not do individual pix of the others til Thursday when we do our weekly weigh-in and collar change as needed.  One good way to determine how they are growing and gaining weight is to see how their collars become a bit tighter.
