We are 1 week old today!

 Lizzy and her sister have come to visit again. And Savannah stays overnight on Fridays to help with the puppies. This week has been just a watch of health and weight milestones and starting in ENS, or Early Neurological Stimulation. Puppies are this age are "heat seeking milk missles", as Jane Killion says in her Puppy Culture video. I do put into play the Puppy Culture lessons as I find them the best for helping puppies develop. Jane has done an amazing job with her research and putting her findings together in a way that is easy to understand, both the how and the why.

This is the end of our first week with puppies. Every week is a "birthday" of sorts as we watch them grow. And boy do they grow quickly! Below are their theme pictures for the week, followed by their remaining daily weights. See if you can figure out who's who in the photos. 😉
