Yesterday was the 2 week mark for the husky pups. It's amazing how fast these guys grow--they look like little piglets. Here's the quick update:
1. They have finally opened their eyes! You can't see their baby blues just yet, but by week 3 they should fully open their eyes and pierce our souls with their icy blue eyes. 2. We actually named them. I know, i said we wouldn't, but it was too hard not to. Lexi, Roxi, Loki Jr. (yes, there's a Jr.) 3. The male (Loki Jr.), I believe, will be the first to walk and first to transition. I've seen him stand on all 4's. Also, he's the first to poop on his own. Great, I guess? Poor guy kept on crying and hunching over, but he finally did the deed without momma's help. I cleaned it up quickly before Kira got to it because I didn't really want to witness that. FYI: Newborn puppies cannot eliminate on their own, so the mom licks them to stimulate elimination. She eats the waste. It's their nature to do this, because out in the wild, she needs to hide the scent of her puppies from predators. 3. Justin's mom has made a decision on a pup! Stay tuned! |
