I got back to work this day, so didn't see them much. In the evening, we did take Curry in to see them for the first time. He was interested and quite gentle. Cinny was cautious but not aggressive. Very good, for them both!
We took advantage of the quiet evening to sort out and weight all the pups again. They now range from 12 to 17 ounces. So everybody has gained one to two ounces since birth. That's good news. All their little umbilici have now fallen off, too.
So that we can sort them out, we've started putting names on them. Mostly, they are based on patterns we notice in their ruff markings. These should stay constant as they grow up. They are:
- Pup #1 - 'Spiral' - 16 ounces
- Pup #2 - "Big girl' - 16 ounces
- Pup #5 - 'Bitty girl' - 12-13 ounces
- 'Arrowhead' - 17 ounces
- 'Island' - 15 ounces
- 'Big Boy' - 17-18 ounces
- 'Short Stocking' - 16 ounces
- 'Blaze' - 17 ounces
