Our puppies are now 5 weeks old
They had their worming paste:
    
which they did not like very much ; )

They still sleep a lot...

mostly in piles...

 And now they spend a lot of time in our living room with our older dachsies : )

they still make a lot of mess with food...

  but our Tiitu is more than willing to help in cleaning the tasty puppy food!

These puppies, as all, like Tiitu very much. Tiitu lays down near the puppies, and they come and pull her ears or hair...

Puppies have started the puppy wrestling matches too


- with almost no biting because they do not have very many teeth - yet...

Close up from the red boy...

   Our Lempi is SO happy now, when Mimmi (the mom of the puppies) now lets her play with the puppies.
Lempi started making friend with the biggest, the black boy puppy...


The puppy was not afraid of Lempi...

and Lempi learned very soon, that the puppy is not just a toy!
He can bite back, even with his gums ; )

Lempi is still hesitating: is it allowed to push a puppy - just a little bit?

 


Lempi leaves the puppies alone when they sleep.
But when they wake up she goes to the litter box to play with them...

the the biting and wrestling starts...


And the games continue all over the living room

with lots of wrestling...

 the puppies together

or with Lempi : )


Very sad news:
the smaller girl puppy got sick and we had to 
put her asleep on Friday the 12th November.
She was only half the size of the other puppies, but this far she was growing all the time and was very playful and felt normal. But then she started to cry... 
We did not want her to suffer, and because there was a big risk, that something was wrong 
we let her go to the rainbow bridge.
