I don't normally post more than one posting a day (week?) but here is a quick video of the puppies playing tonight.

Puppies at Rest
Individual puppy pictures coming soon, but here are a couple of cute ones.
Additionally, you can read my "Ode to Toffee" story over on The Dog Blog. (She's a great dog!)

Play, Puppies, Play!
There is nothing quite so cute as watching puppies play with each other and start to wrestle and "bite" each other. They are barely walking around and they are compelled to "fight" each other while making the cutest little chirps and pseudo-barks.

Pool Puppies!
With the heat wave in full force, we brought the puppies into our fully air conditioned house. We want to make sure both Toffee and the puppies are as cool as can be. Plus, since I hate the hot weather, it makes it easier for me, too!
Until we move our whelping box indoors, we put them all in a small wading pool. We have about a day or two before they can climb over the side, so we better hurry. Blue - Boy is the most aggressive in wanting to get over the side. He's displaying his "don't fence me in" personality, I guess. I can sympathize with those feelings.
Anyway, here are some random shots of the puppies. I didn't bother to keep track of their colors; I just took pictures of cute puppies!

Ladies and Gentlemen: Here They Are - The Puppies!
These adorable puppies are now 2 weeks old. Their eyes just opened yesterday and today they are starting to test out their legs and are "crawl-walking." Full walking is just a day or two away.
They are still too young for us to know how curly their hair will be, but they are definitely starting to add defining facial characteristics.
They are all growing well and Toffee is being a great Mommy.
Each of the puppies has an identifying ribbon and, as usual, if you click on the pictures they will expand into full size. (By the way, if you like what you see in any of our posts, please feel free to hit the +1 button at the bottom, or any of the other buttons to share what you see. Thanks!)

Today is Puppy Day!
Toffee, the mom, is having puppies as I type. We are expecting 9 puppies. They will be ready for their permanent homes about Labor Day.
Here is a picture of Toffee. Additional pictures are on the "Puppies Are Here!" tab at the top of this page.
