Weigh Ins

I met Connie on Friday for the first time - she's much smaller than I guessed based on the photos. She's about 37 pounds right now - she'll still lose some of the baby weight, then hopefully fill out some (you can see all of her ribs), so she should end up about 40 pounds. She's very sweet and submissive - she holds her tail low and it wags back and forth quickly at any hint of attention.

She's very attentive to her babies, checking on on them after each time she goes away for a drink, or they're taken away. Apparently she's nervous if people she hasn't met handle the pups, but after greeting me at the door she was fine with me there. I have photos I'll post tomorrow.

The two boys are the largest pups - they're both black and white and the larger weighs 3 pounds 2 ounces. The smallest girl - who is almost pure white - is only 2 pounds 2 ounces. Their eyes are starting to open but they can't stand up and walk around yet. Connie is really cute with them, curling up with them and resting her head on their backs.
