We are at the half-way mark. The pups are 4 weeks old and will only be with us for 4 more weeks before they head to their forever homes. It is a bittersweet time as we are becoming so attached with them and yet know the more we grow to love them the more they are ready for their new loving permanent homes. They are becoming increasingly more hard to handle (though I always know how easy I have it with just 2 pups) They are faster on their feet and more demanding at meal times. Humans need to be on their toes with paper towels or baby wipes. You wouldn't believe the amount of pee that can come out of such tiny bladders and how quick they can find the ONE SPOT you didn't want them to pee on!! Squirrel climbed right up in Dakota's dog bed the other day and peed right in the center of it! Aside from their potty escapades, they are becoming such distinct individuals. Squirrel is so feisty and loves to play, bite, growl, chase, romp. Mudge is beginning to see the fun in all this horsing around and has just started to use Squirrel as a chew toy to get her to wrestle him!
Squirrel birth weight 15.8 oz., weight at 4 weeks 7 lbs 1.7 oz.
