Gangsters Litter days 3 & 4

The Gangsters had a busy day on Monday (day 3 for them) - their first car ride and first day at work at Front Range K9 Academy.

Mom and pups travelled just fine, not offering even a peep on the 70 mile commute.  They all settled into their whelping pool setup at the office with no troubles.  Mondays are 'prep' day for the raw diet we feed, so with the humans busy with food prep, it was up to mama Lyla to just hang out and nurse and clean pups...and it was the pups' job to just keep doing what they do best - eating and sleeping!

As is the case with most small litters of pups, these guys are getting tons of milk, so they are mostly very quiet, and are gaining weight by leaps and bounds.   Kid Twist, who remains the biggest of the pups, is finally outgrowing his birth wrinkles and looking like the blue he is, as opposed to looking like a brindle pup!

On to the pictures from yesterday and today!

Better shot of Nelson!  Such crazy cow-like markings.  😊

Kid Twist - starting to smooth out (his jammies must've been on too tight inside Mama Lyla!)
