  1. Puppy Faces (And Chase)

    July 27, 2013 by myeye

    I had a few moments this afternoon with three awake puppies.  Grampa Chase had a romp with them so they were holding more still than usual.  They turned 7 weeks old yesterday and we’ll take some more official photos on Monday morning.  This morning Lisa Berry temperament tested the babies.  As a group they were people-oriented, pretty unflappable, liked being handled.  We microchipped them which did not bother them in the least.  So — on to some pictures (taken with the real camera).

  2. Copper Is Four Months Old

    July 27, 2013 by myeye

    Copper (and the rest of the College Kids) turned four months old on July 25th.  They are such an outgoing, active group of puppies.  Last night Copper (via Kevin) send me this short video with a note: “Gramma, I need a new swimming pool.”  If I can get out to the main road, I will go to Walmart to find my red grandchild a baby pool.  Note the ears seem to be up.  We’ve struggled with the little red girl’s big ears.

    Shortly after receipt of this video, torrential rains hit in the north valley of Albuquerque, and Copper’s front yard became a swimming pool.
