I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas holiday with your family this week! We relaxed with my parents and had the rare and extra special treat of a white Christmas - which doesn't happen as often as we'd like in the mountains of WNC. But when it does it makes for a beautiful day as everything brightens in a white and sparkly world.

The puppies were 4 weeks old on Christmas Day! 4 weeks opens up a whole new world for puppies. We moved them into a larger space with a litter tray. We also begin to allow more interaction with outside guests to widen their social circle a bit. And feedings are increased to 2 times per day to encourage weaning. We added in ground egg shell, diatomaceous earth, and organ meat!. Most of the puppies are right around 5 pounds - shooting up a whopping 2 whole pounds this week!

Here's a video showing their new space: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/uxmfimntxd8

Moriah couldn't wait to try out her new vet kit on the puppies.

Although we'll have to get the upgrade ready soon because Polly, our fearless little explorer, has already figured out how to escape.

And so here they are - the 4 week photos! So incredible how much they have grown into their own little selves so quickly. It really has been such a remarkable privilege to be a part of the beginnings of these sweet, beautiful creatures.
