Puppies @ 6 Weeks

[luckypenny]

Chico, I forgot the most important part about considering applications and fostering puppies in general...it entails about dozen phone calls a week to poor fosterpat who I bug relentlessly . If it wasn't for her, I would never be able to let go of any foster puppies, ever . And I have to thank my patient friend Frenchy (yes, patient and Frenchy in the same sentence ) who has to put up with my rants when I sometimes get yelled at after declining an application.

Here's my theory: It's a survival mechanism. When you've just spent an hour scrubbing poop that's been walked on and smeared around the enclosure...and another hour scrubbing up the pups...then run upstairs to get their breakfast and return to see that some pups have pooped again and they've all decided that right then and there would be great for a wrestling match...and then you have to start with the cleaning all over again....well, that's why they have such large endearing eyes...so you go awww instead of .




More pics for you. One day I may be brave enough to share some of what the pen looks like first thing in the morning .

Using process of elimination, I think that's Suziecakes (soon to be known as Bailey). Cuddles is standing in that photo. She often leans against me for lovings if all the pups are nursing at the same time.

Oh they are sweet, growing very fast.. Love their markings although they will change with age and their face well that goes without saying.

[chico2]

LP,I'll come and help you clean up poop,just to be able to pet those cute little pink bellies

[Love4himies]

yay more pics of such incredible sweetness

[Chris21711]

I like the name Susiecakes better than Bailey....it's more original

[mastifflover]

OMG that is cuteness overload. Chico I love those pink bellies too. But I don't want to clean puppy poop.

Can you stay a few weeks ? There's even a bed to accommodate you seeing it's my son's room but nobody dares to sleep in there .

I don't blame you. Good thing I'm not a breakfast person and there's an air purifier and window in the room. And thank dog for vinegar and alcohol! I put an extra divider in the pen today that separates the 'bathroom' from the rest of the pen. It has an opening so the pups can easily get in and out but hopefully it'll prevent the poop from being smooshed all over the place when I'm not there to pick up right away .

Such sweet pics, LP! Can you ship me one of those boxes that comes with a puppy, pls? That's just adorable!

[luckypenny]

It's a kleenex box, Hazel .

I have more pics. I'm just a wee bit obsessed with these guys, can you tell ?

So the divider for the "bathroom" worked . Only one little pee just outside of it but that's because sometimes one of the pups just puts there front feet onto the pad .

I'm gonna post the pic I took right when I entered the room here so WARNING Rated P photos . And there's a puppy missing!






Marbles can climb the bench-barrier now.



And Cuddles got smart and found a new way to feed them where she can make a quick get-away to her side of the pen .

[mastifflover]

damn they are cute poop and all

[luckypenny]

These guys will be great at schutzhund .




Sweet Marbles .

I know, I'm weird for posting a pic of poop but, I'm just so excited the barrier worked .

[luckypenny]

Last couple for the night. Hercules.



And Suziecakes atop a puppy-pile-on .

[Shaykeija]

That is one big massive pile of puppy love.....

[pattymac]

Good thing I moved to SK!! Just way too cute to resist!

Not weird to a bunch of people running around with bags picking up sh** on a daily basis
