--News Alert-- Puppies eyes begin to open!
The eyes are the window to the soul and so it is with great joy that we announce that on their 13th day, the puppies eyes have begun to open. This is not a sudden occurance but one that takes place over the span of about 24 hours. And even when their eyes are fully opened, they will still not see very clearly. Research indicates that puppies do not see forms until they are 4 weeks old. Additionally the pups hearing is developing rapidly as well.
Dixie is very attentive to the needs of her puppies.
This is the first big developmental step for the pups. It signals the beginning of a week of milestones in which the pups will begin to see, hear, walk, chew and improve their sense of smell.
The little salt n' pepper is nursing on her back. She sleeps alot on her back too
Very cool info, Mary. I have to go tomorrow and pick up the Monks of Skete book you mentioned earlier from the library ... will read it before we bring our pup home!
Keep these posts coming -- it's fun to hear about the pups all the way from birth to placement.
