They are a week old!

It is hard to believe the Game Bird pups are a week old. 
Today we put new collars on them, as they were outgrowing the old ones.
Yesterday's bio-sensor scent de jour was duck. As you can imagine, they were really taking in the scent! Tonight's scent is going to be evergreen.

When our friends Sue and Dan Johnson were over Sue took some photos. The photos in today's blog are hers. Isn't she gifted?

Right now they are asleep in the whelping box and one of them is purring. For those of you who have never spent time with very young pups, the purring is hard to describe. It's almost like snoring, but with a lilt to it. The biggest pup is 1 lb 10oz and the smallest is 1 lb 5.5oz. So as you can see, they are pretty evenly sized.


Isn't it amazing how alike they are?

Thanks for following the first week.  New photos will be posted in a Week Two folder.
Enjoy!
