Cabin trip with the pups

Puppy art - same pic inside and outside the pool

On the last weekend that we had the pups, I took them to the cabin with me. Luckily Heather joined me because I needed the extra hands.  We loaded up the swimming pool and headed out at 6 am on Friday morning.  The ride there was a smooth as butter!  Hops laid in the pool with the babies for the whole trip.  And of course they were delighted because they could eat whenever they wanted!

This is where they stayed at the cabin - it was wall to wall dogs!

The puppies were getting big and were quite active so we took them out on the driveway to let them run around a little.  At first they were scared and stuck close to us.  But after a couple days, they wandered around a little more.  It was funny to watch them wandering around in between Hops, Daisy and Ahi, like they were part of the pack!  At one point, Porter walked right under Ahi and she FROZE!  There was a little lip action to show her disapproval so I quickly moved her!

At the end of the weekend, we dropped them all off at the breeders house where they charmed everyone!

The report from the breeder is Hops continues to be a good mama by nursing them whenever they want, so the pups are not very interested in kibble yet.  That means the weaning period will be a little long.
