The pups move outside!


So the pups eventually have to leave the house, fly the coop, move on to bigger and better things... kind of. And mostly only because I am going back to work.  It was a good time to start the PUPPY HOUSE this weekend.

Construction begins, once again! Just when I was all finished and hadn't really needed to touch the dogyard for awhile... along come these little turds! Oh well, you can never have enough dog houses/condos/puppy palaces.

Mr. Handsome Sperm Donor, Woody. He was just playing in the yard, entertaining himself with the ball for the whole afternoon. What a funny dog.

 Taking life seriously, as always!






The puppies head outside for the first time - it was a trial run! They seemed totally unimpressed and slept for the most part.

Little whiney boy #2 is in the second spot below and look! His eyes started to open a teeny-tiny bit today (before I took them outside, so it wasn't the sun!). He's a genius I tell ya!!!

PB was off doing her own thing when I brought them out.

Here's a video of me reminding her the pups are out. I'm sure she totally cared and just realized they are safe with me (instead of her doing something MORE important like looking for the ball).


And... it's a success! PB & pups are totally comfy and happy and content inside. 
 The towels are there because it took a puppy 1.5 seconds to flop over into that "hole" and get stuck. 

She loves laying her head on the mini-pack.

On their own! Momentarily. PB stuck inside the house with them the whole time they were out (about 5 hours) after I left to get some other stuff done! Yay for PB!!!
The area in front is the "Escape from Puppies for Sanity" area for PB. They can't wriggle out... yet. I'm sure I'll have to increase that divider in a week!

The little gerbils are on the move! Again.

The puppy tongue is out again, I love that!!!

So they survived the afternoon/early evening in the Puppy House. But I "needed" them inside overnight... yes, "I" needed them, more than they need to be in. But PB was happy to come back in with her brood. :)

That looks so cozy, good job. They are growing so fast!

You are such a good granny ;). And two of the pups have kiss spots on their head so you know exactly where to kiss them.

They ARE growing fast, I'm sure they'll be "real dogs" before I know it Marg. That's why I'm going to enjoy every second of puppyhood!

All their eyes are open now! And they look pretty interested in each other, they are often gnawing at each other but I'm not sure if that's thinking they are food!

Paige - yeah, those little spots are adorable!

Woody is very handsome. These pups are going to be gorgeous.

Good on PB, letting them out of her sight for a bit.
