Flicker had her pups between midnight and 6am. She had 3 boys and 1 girl. They were 6-8oz at birth. This picture was taken Nov 24/03 at 4 days old and they are 8.5-11.5oz now. Flicker is an excellent mom remaining calm and dedicated to looking after her pups. Will try to get some individual pictures soon but they are already showing the excellent bone of their father Cadence.
Here's the latest pictures taken today Nov 26/03. The pups are growing steadily. They are growing steadily at 10-13.5oz. The female is the smallest now since the boys have been pigging out more than her. The girl is on the left in the picture below. She has the most black and the most colour on her body. The boy on the left in the picture to the right is the biggest and has the most impressive head. Even the female has a good sized head it is just overshadowed by the three boys.
Here are the pups at 3 weeks old taking their first steps outside their whelping pen. The girl is the one that is mostly black. Ain't she sweet?
The pups are almost completely weaned now. Here they are just kickin back and relaxin. In the other pic mom is crate training them. Or maybe she is trying to tell us to get her away from these little eating machines.
