Time for another update on the foster puppies!! They're all getting so big!
Each puppy definitely has their own personality and attitude. Brutus, Beatrice,
Othello, Horatio, and Portia are all pretty laid back (and kind of lazy), Romeo
is the cry baby of the bunch, and Iris, Ophelia, and Hamlet are the most
playful. All of them are so sweet and loving- as soon as someone walks into the
room, all their little heads turn and they run over to greet you :) It's
adorable! They are all teething right now... they like to bite toes for some
reason. Puppy teeth are seriously razor-sharp.
Anyway, we haven't weighed them recently, but Romeo is still the biggest of
the litter, and Horatio is still the smallest. They're all happy and healthy,
but Juliet has decided to stop feeding them... We will most likely have to
start bottle feeding or making some baby rice/ cereal to supplement them until
they can eat solid food. Usually the mom will feed them until they can eat
solid food, but Juliet doesn't sit still long enough for all of them to nurse;
we can't blame her for that since she is so young and playful herself. She
loves the puppies and is a great mom, though.
Good news!! Beatrice, Portia, and Othello are already
adopted! We were all surprised they got adopted so fast; it definitely shows
that the people adopting them are good pet owners, if their willing to wait
about 5 more weeks to bring home their new babies. Portia and Othello are going
to the same home, and Beatrice (now named Tesla or Tes for short) is going to a
home with kids, dogs, cats, and a big yard to run around in!
And here are their most recent "mug shots," as Mom calls them.
