The past week just seemed to have dissapeared. The puppies are taking up more of my time, as their waking hours become longer and I am trying to fill their expanding minds and increasing body awareness with ever new little challenges. A typical day starts at about 6.00 am, after I made myself a cup of coffee, I open the "jail gates" (at least that is how the puppies think of their puppy pen ;-)). I still need to help them get to the outside quickly, before the bedroom carpet receives all thei... Continue reading ...

Yesterday was a very exciting day for the puppies and a totally new experience. Johann Theron of the Animaltalk Magazine came to take pictures for an article they do that features Pyrenean Sheepdog (among other breeds). He first took action shots of Chippy, followed by a few portrait shots of Lollie and then lots of puppy pictures. This one Johann posted on his facebook page this morning :-)
Johann wanted some action shots of the puppies running across the lawn together and suggested Anthony h... Continue reading ...

The puppies are exploring their surrounding and learning to interact. These video clips were taken last week when the puppies were not quite 4 weeks old.

We had mum Lollie, granny Quincy, uncle Chippy (Lollie's brother) and of course the puppies in the garden together.
They definitely are starting to develop little identities.
Granny loves to play with the puppies and Lollie is getting more and more relaxed about it (previously we had to "sneak in" some time without Lollie knowing about it ;-))
The boys like to have some time together - BB, HB and Chippy
Even Chippy's toys are interesting (most things qualify as toys for Chips, this was a stick ... Continue reading ...

I am reporting that the
puppies have “discovered” real food and I couldn’t get their little faces out of
the dish this morning :-).
This is quite an achievement, as I have been trying to get food, other than Lollie's milk into them for some time and they were just not interested. I have a fairly good imagination and I tried everything I could think of - singly and in combination. But bar a few polite licks, I had firm decline on all my "cooking".

Beacuse there are (finally) so many pictures, I will categorize them under each puppy's name, so if you want to follow a particular puppy it will be easier.
The puppies are starting to meet the family (all under tight supervision of course). Chanel (aka HG) is developing into the most outgoing puppy - so very Un-Pyrenean ;-). And she is extremely adventurous. Yesterday we had "singles sessions" for the first time and I had an opportunity to take some pictures because I could concentrate on one... Continue reading ...

Finally the promised video. I have to warn you, it is just about puppies taking their first wobbly steps. No fireworks :-). But if you enjoy young puppies you may just be smiling for a few minutes while watching my babies.

Tomorrow the puppies will be 1 month old. It is hard to believe. Of course I was late with starting this blog, but it is now under way. We are narrowing the names down, but for easy reference until they have been finalised the puppies are as follows: firstborn: HB (stands for Harlequin boy). The french name for the "merle" colour is "arlequin", or english "harlequin". Since these are special dogs, I like to use the special colour reference :-). The second born was the BG (black Girl). Of cours... Continue reading ...
