Happy Halloween - 12 days old

The puppies are getting bigger!
They are starting to crawl around on their feet.
Their eyes are still closed, but they should be opening soon.

Sage Puppies 1st week - 5 days old

Sage's puppies are almost one week old in these photos. Their eyes and ears are still sealed. But, their ears are starting to flop over already. They'll start to acquire and develop their vision and hearing by next week. This week they continue to use their best sense, smell, in order to navigate their small world - the whelping box.

The pups spend the day nursing and sleeping. When their mother enters the area they wiggle towards her, looking like little seals as they scoot around the box and sounding like small cats when they cry. Now, at the end of week one, they are beginning to lift themselves, on wobbly, little legs.
