Oh the poor bugger :( imagine the number of queries!

I just got mine in the mail this morning and I'm 599! For a group 1 dog... lol I'm guessing they didn't include some in the first cut of the catalogue because they do have consequtive numbers and then it starts all over again in a second batch... presumably our out of order numbers will just be integrated in, can't see how they wouldn't be. How bizarre!!

Looks like I'll have to have a look into the vaccination programs, would any vet carry them/use them? ADJ.. hard to believe they're growing up already! How awesome I've got to get some updated piccies of mine, they are massive... hard to believe

Thanks

Thanks Jan What sort of immunisation regime do you use? My vet suggested getting their first vacc at 6 weeks, but I've heard others suggest that's a bit too early.

Those puppies are just adorable Labs26! On another note, I have some more technical questions to ask, particularly for those with little fluffers... how early do you microchip them? I need to submit the litter reg, but not sure how early I can chip and don't want to do it too early. Also, have you had any trouble with names with your puppies? I know what I want but don't know if it will be acceptable I'm thinking I might have to give Dogs Vic a call... I can't see anything on the rego form that says I cant have what I want (TV character names), but I'd hate to have it rejected. I also need to work out exactly what I need to register their colours as.. how annoying!

Heheheeh they are all so cuuuute! Omg... babies are 4 weeks old today and Pugsley's vocal cords are getting stronger at least :p My god that boy can carry on a treat!

It's always handy to hear it from someone else at this stage I am going to have them in the loungeroom today while I dry Lola in the next room, so that will be a start with the dryer for them... I was thinking maybe in a week of sticking them in a bucket of warmish water not so much to wash them, but to get them used to the feeling of it all and then combine towel dry with using the hairdryer on low. They get full but shave soon.. bwahaha... but I want to get them used to the dremmel for their nails too.. that'll be fun.

I am washing all of my fluffers today and I had a random thought... when do you give your babies their first bath? I know my kids can have their first bum shave this week, and I was going to do it this weekend but thought I might leave them until next weekend so they can get a bit steadier on their feet. Obviously being a fluffy breed they need to get pretty used to being washed, tried, brushed and generally fussed over... but I don't want to do it so early that I'm torturing them.

They are super cute I'm so glad I have no trouble telling mine apart :p Here are a couple of shots of my little stinkers

Awww I can't see it Must be because we aren't friends on facebook.. bugger.

They are great... Weddy is finding her feet, she was struggling a bit on newspaper and would slide herself backwards rather than getting up on her back legs, but she's gotten better at it which is nice to see. I'll be talking to the stud owner in a few weeks to see what we're going to end up doing, but it may be that I run them on for a litte while and see how they turn out... but I'm leaning more towards keeping Weds... bloody hell it's going to be hard to let one of them go *sobs*

I haven't changed Lola's food much at all, apart from increasing it a bit as the pups grow... but the bubbas occasionally have runny poos. The puppies are fit and well and they aren't so runny or often that I'd worry too much.

Tibbie, your bubbies are so smoochable! Kanati, I love boy 2... he looks like he's up and rearing to go I <3 their pointy little noses!

Some updated pics of the bubbies... three weeks tomorrow!

Congrats Murmar... sounds like you only just made it into May Very cute babies! Piper.. she is DEFINITELY showing now :p that looks like a huge change on the May 1 shot!

Toy Dog Club show is coming up Panz!

He wont be too soon, he's about 750g at the moment, but puts on weight like a trooper. He'll be 3 weeks on Tuesday. Oh Ish I am so so sorry

Thx I don't think it will be long before Pugsley hits a kilo.. Wednesday is just sloooooow!

Cool... I would just like to see a bit more weight on Wednesday... but Lola is less attentive and isn't that interested in feeding them.... she is feeding them obviously because they're putting on weight. They're also interested in licking and nomming on things, so thought it might've been an experience for them ETA: I think I just need to stop overanalysing things.

Ooooh they're all so cute! Just another random noob question, but is 2.5 weeks too young to start giving the babies some extra food? I didn't want to start them fully weaning onto puppy food, but I was thinking just some puppy milk and egg and maybe some nutrigel mixed in. Thoughts?!

I know that feeling AdJ... sounds like Lola everytime I went near her babies... she's more relaxed about it now. I think it was easier for me with just 2 of them :D

I'm sorry she had to have a c-section but YAY!!! 9 babies and all well.. that is freaking awesome ETA: How big are they?? they must be HUGE!

They are just gorgeous Shellby.. I really do want to nom that choccy boy's head.. he's so cute! AdJ.. she's overdue now isn't she? I hope she starts popping them out soon!

oh my freaking god AdJ... that is almost frightening... How uncomfortable is the poor girl?!
