W & W2 pupdate! ~ 8+ weeks and 4 weeks old now

What a big week...

Most of the "W" pups went to their new homes (Andy Warhol is with us for a few more days while his new mom is out of town); so we've got some fun pics of them settling into their 'real lives.'  This part of the process is always a bit bittersweet for us.  We're so happy to have such amazing homes to send the pups off to; but it's hard to spend every hour of every day with these little creatures for 8 weeks and then have to part with them.

Luckily, the W2's are up and around and keeping us very busy.  They also had a big week.  They officially moved out of their baby pools into the big whelping kennel previously occupied by the W pups.  They have liked having the new space and are growing like weeds - eating solid food, using the litter boxes, and generally wreaking havoc.  :)   They've got their sharp little teeth in, so Trinity is beginning to wean them - spending less and less time nursing, while faithful Aunt Lizzie has taken over and is spending lots of time with them.

So, without further adieu, here we go...

First up, some of the W's in their new digs:

Teeny Maebell (a.k.a. Whimsy) and her new best buddy, Luna.

***

We got a bunch of great shots of Frankie (a.k.a. Wingnut), and her new best buddy, Leo!






***

And Wilson made it home all the way to Utah.  He looks like he enjoyed his time in the snuggly hotel beds along the way!


 


***

And last but not least, Winston (a.k.a. Wombat) is settling in nicely to his new routines - and enjoying some time by the fire.  Whippet through and through!

And here's Andy Warhol - getting some snuggle time with Auntie Lizzie!


Next up - the W2 litter...my, how they're growing!

Winky & Windy

Nom-nom time at the food bowl.
Wernher Von Braun, Woody, The Whiz, and a bit of Mr. Whipple's head.  :)

Mr. Whipple & Winky...squish-snuggles!

Whisper at the bowl.

Uh...Wernher...you eat it...you don't walk in it!

Windy!

Trinity and The Whiz....such a fat little full belly!

Wernher...sleeping puppy stretch!

Auntie Lizzie - round 2!  She's stepped right in the last 2 days to help Trinity begin to wean the pups, making sure the pups still have an adult to snuggle with.  Here she is with The Whiz.

Mr. Whipple - taking 'just a little taste' of Lizzie's ear.
