Bulochka’s puppies are one week old today! It’s been a busy first week. We decided on “C” names for all ten of these cuties. The boys are Cody, Clark, Cedar, Coco, and Cliff. The girls are Cascade (or Cassie for short), Cherry, Cora, Clover, and Clara.
Someone is on duty watching Bulochka and the puppies 24/7 right now. They’re nursing well, and since it’s a large litter, we’re also supplementing with some bottle feeding. It’s an interesting recipe we used to create a formula that’s as close to the mama dog’s milk as possible. It includes goat’s milk, beef liver broth, and other delectables. Yum!
We do a weight check on them every day, and they’re all growing great. They also got a nail trim.
The puppies are receiving lots of attention and cuddles from our family, and socialization with a wide range of ages.
Overall, the first week has gone great! We’re enjoying loving on our puppies and preparing them for their forever homes.
