Day 6

Everyone is growing fine. In two days they have grown between 8 to 10 oz. each. We have changed their collars three times and the boys have already picked out their favorites. It is truly amazing to watch them grow!
 
 They like to lay under the heat lamp to keep warm. But the pups favorite spot to sleep is under the shelf the runs around the inside of  the whelping box. I think it is like a little cave to them and makes them feel safe. The pups can fit under the shelf with room to spare right  now but just wait until they are 10 pounds and still trying to fit under the shelf! It is so funny! somehow they manage to sleep with just their heads lodged under and their bodies sticking out!
 This is a good picture to show the eyes and ears closed and how short the snout is when they are days old! They are still just as cute as a button!
