Even though the puppies are quite young (just under 4 weeks), they are ready to be introduced to puppy chow. For the first couple of days, though, I made them up formula and let them learn to lap it up. Then, I soaked the puppy chow in the formula and mashed it up so that they could eat it easily. It took a little bit for them to figure out that the puppy mush was tasty, but once they did, the puppies were excited to jump right in and eat it (literally and figuratively). Buddy, our smaller, darker-colored sweetheart of a puppy was the most enthusiastic on the first day. Today, all four jumped right in and started eating.

They are so sweet! Are you keeping any of the puppies?

No. We are loving having them around and they are so darling, but we are selling all of them. It's fun getting to play with puppies again, though. :-)
