FIRST STEPS OUTSIDE THE WHELPING BOX

We are introducing the pups, one at a time, to different parts of the house.  What an adventure:  New surfaces to experience and new smells to savour.

Peeping out at the world from the comfort of Mom's bed

What is that?


Gosh these tiles feel cool!


Of course, it helps if Mom is around for a little added security.

Mama is a reassuring presence
 
Taking the pups out in the big world, away from the security of the whelping box and litter mates, helps them develop their confidence.  Of course we are close at hand to ensure that the adventure is stressfree.
