This is the same box we used when the puppies were born when we needed some space in the bigger whelping box. If you look back to the previous post you will see that the pups only filled about half of the box. Just three days later they nearly fill the box!
Bella thought the whelping box was too small though, and started feeding the pups on the floor. We put a towel down because the poor pups couldn't get any traction on the smooth floor! They are five days old here, and are even bigger.
Rosa (the runt) likes sleeping with her head on Mom's leg! We make sure she and the other slightly smaller pups nurse first so that they don't get pushed out by their bigger siblings.
Awww, Wallace and his sister Jessie snuggle together while sleeping!
Though these guys do require some extra work for us, it is worth it to watch them grow and develop!
