Week 5

 Puppy zooms!  The pups are spending a lot of time outside as the weather is just perfect for pups; 60-70 degrees and sunny.  I leave the door open so the pups can go in or out at will but they rarely come in!

Week 3 and 4

A full time job, a long commute, and babies means little time for pictures or blogging so i am squashing two weeks into one!  The outside photos are a couple days after they turned 4 weeks and the photos in the house are the 3 week photos. 
 The pups spoiled my fun and took to eating real food like pros- no cute messy pictures:-( 
 Miss Grey is done eating and ready for some fun!
 Miss Honey posing for the camera
 Mr. tawny is quite handsome and knows it
 Yikes Chili- there is not much room left- It is hard to believe her previous litters had more pups- I don't know how they do it... my boobs hurt just watching.
 Cornelia comes out to help Chili feed lunch
 Mr. Silver and Mr. Tawny are two cool dudes
 Miss Yellow and Mr. Polar trek off on a mission
 Miss Grey is quite the little poser
 Mr. Red
 Chili gets some comfort from a visitor
Future Chinook owners visiting the pups
 Cornelia has started lactating and is helping Chili feed the pups 
 Dad says hi to Miss Honey
 Watcher is very curious about the pups and VERY gentle, unlike my boy Salukis who think puppies are ideal for tiddlywinking around the yard.
 Who's afraid of shiny fllors??!  Not Me!!  Miss Yellow is very brave
 Wink is being a very good auntie.  I was unsure of having her around the pups as she is only 4 months but she is a good girl
 Telling secrets
 I can only inagine the conversation they are having with each other
 Mr. Steele is going through a bobble- head phase
 Mr. Steele
 Mr. Red discovers the joy of Water Spaniel ears
 Uhhmmm....I don't even know how to describe the face Kila is making to the puppy:-)  She loves them and gets so overwhelmed when she is around them.  I am very strict with her around babies because she is a bull in a china shop- she has to do a down stay if she is around them- she so wants to actually play with them that she looks like she is going to explode!
 3 weeks old and already a master at the Chinook smile
