KADE AND CHARLIE PUPPIES
TEN DAYS OLD
AUGUST 20, 2021
Charlie’s puppies came 2 days early. All consistent in size and weight. Three boys and seven girls. All yellow except for two black girls. The puppies can’t see or hear, but due to their sense of smell, they definitely know how to find mom to nurse. They like to jockey for position at the milk bar. Newborn puppies have pink noses, ears and feet. Their black pigment is slowly coming in. The puppies love to snuggle with mom, each other and with the two heartbeat puppies.
