They’re Real Big Puppies Now

Today the puppies graduated to real puppy food. No more cereal, no more puppy milk. They are now on Merrick Food for puppies, and they love it! I put it on a large plate and set it down on the floor and they all come running. I stood guard, so I could keep Greta away, and encourage the little guys, but I noticed today Greta was well behaved and the pups ate like they hadn’t eaten in days!

After they ate, they slept. All pig-piled together on the bed that Mandy gave Greta for Christmas. There are three beds in that puppy room, but they all want to sleep on that one all of the time! It’s really kind of funny to see them trying to fit onto that little sofa now, as they grow bigger every day.

This afternoon I went into the kitchen to get some tea and the puppies lined up at the gate to fuss and bark and let me know that it was time to eat again. I glanced at the clock, and the time was close enough, so I got a plate of food ready and brought it in.

They are running around like crazy now too, and that is so much fun to watch. I need to get some good video of that this week, but it is tricky because when they see me they run right up to the camera and I can’t get a good shot.

I sat down with them all, late this afternoon and let them just crawl all over me. They licked and chewed and wiggled and cuddled and kissed and I thought that there just wasn’t anything better in the entire world that “puppy love”.
