These little ones where born on the 25th of april, what date where yours born? Mum is doing great, it is her 2nd litter so shes an old hand, lol
This time round ive invested in a outside kennel and run, which i am trying to get them in now they are walking without falling over! But they cry when i put them in and im such a soft touch i end up bringing them back in the house, but we are slowly getting there.

Mine are being raised indoors don't think I'd want them outside at the moment its too cold although they have a run and everything ready for short periods of playtime when the weather warms up. Mine were born a few days before yours on st.georges day with so many males am sure at least one will be called George hehe!

The kennel with run is only for the day time, their in there at the moment for about the 3rd time, i put them out for about an hour a day at the moment, so that i can clean out their cage and clean the house in peace! mum hates it in there, shes not used to it at all.
How many puppies did your girl have and how many where boys/girls?
they are at the stage now where they know my voice and start yapping, its really cute. if it wasn't so messy i think i would want to keep them all.lol

hehe! I know what you mean Bonnie had 7 boys and two girls, we lost one of the girls in the first 24hours which was such a shame. They are alot of fun, I've found ways around the mess which has really worked out well.
I've got a large whelping crate and have seperated it out a little so that the front has easy clean puppy training mats that are scent marked to help with toilet training, and am using pampers bed mats over the top of a large dog bed which is then covered in vet bed so its nice arm and cozy but easy to clean, you literally just whip it off a couple of times a day and replace it with new take about 5 minutes do to the whole crate. The front mats I'm doing as and when needed so everything is nice and clean.
Food was a bit of a nightmare so i've made use of a paddly pool I had hanging around and thats now the 'paddly pool restaurant', whilst they are eating i clean out the whelping box and then pop them back in after they have finished, the paddly pool then gets a quick clean out with a hose. no mess or fuss and its all quick and easy.
Mine have been yapping for a few weeks now and come to a little whistle or tap on the front of the box... its so funny to see them play all rough and tumbly hehe!
