Chai's little ones are growing rapidly and are going to need a much bigger pen soon so they can stretch their legs and play.  They are doing just great with weaning and are eating well on their own now, although Chai is still nursing often too.  The personalities are really starting to come out and they are asking for attention all the time now.

We had a wonderful weekend in Camrose at the Battle River dog show.  This is a picture of Bart waiting ringside for his chance to strut.  This was his first weekend out and he looked great and took it all in stride.  Molly did great as well, taking best of opposite on Saturday.  The picture above was taken at 7 in the morning on the way to Camrose from Stettler.  I dont know if I have ever seen a more beautiful sunrise!  The picture below is of Bart resting his weary head on his gorgeous new bed after a long day of looking handsome!

Nearly four weeks old and starting to become little dogs!  They get sooooo cute at this age.  They start to ask for attention and play with each other.   Chai and Max have a beautiful litter!  These babies are so chunky and sweet.  They have lovely soft coats!  Its hard to stop petting them once you start.  And they love being held and stroked and cuddled.  Chai is doing great.  She is enjoying being a mom and is still so attentive, although Molly loves to help out and makes for a great babysitter.  Whenever there are babies that arent hers, she becomes a bit jealous and sneaks in to play "mom" to them whenever she gets the chance.

Chai's babies look like little sausages right now!  At this age, before they are doing a lot of moving around, they are sooooo fat!!!  Once they become mobile and get moving, they slim up quite a bit.  They are giving kisses now and are starting to interact with each other.  They move about clum

Chai is doing a wonderful job as mom and her chubby babies are getting a bit more active.  Now that eyes are all open, they are beginning to show recognition of people.  I absolutely love it when they look at you and actually SEE you.  They give you this intense stare with so much focus, as if to say "what are you?"

This is going to be a busy month or two!  two litters of three, three weeks apart.  Chai's little ones are doing amazingly well, and are getting chunky and strong.  They are opening their eyes now, which is always exciting because they change and develop so fast when they start to be able to see their surroundings.  You can start to see what little personalities are developing.  It goes by so fast, but it is so much fun to have babies in the house.

Chai gave birth to three sweet little souls on Feb 24th between 6 and 10 pm.  There are two girls and one boy, and they are beautiful!  Already growing like crazy!  Lunch time for both mom and babies!
