Brooks 10-062

back to Adopted Dogs

Profile

Brooks is 4 weeks old and has 3 brothers and 1 sister. His momma is Molly 10-058. They arrived from Missouri on Saturday and were welcomed to our crazy pack of dogs and people! Winston, resident dog, is loving the pups. Buster 09-298, my other foster, is not quite sure what to make of them.

They arrived very healthy and shall we say, chubby! They range in weight from 8-9 lbs, which is quite large for 4 weeks. They’re already eating soft puppy food and still enjoy nursing from momma. I think she will start weaning them in the next couple weeks or so. The pups will receive their first vaccinations in 3 weeks and then the following week (end of March) they will be spayed or neutered.

Did I say how adorable they are?? Momma appears to be all Golden. Dad is said to be part black lab and coonhound mix. What a combination! They have received many visitors and have enjoyed the attention. Thank you everyone who has donated newspaper, paper towels and blankets to them. We sure go through a lot of paper products!

More info to follow later this week. They will not be able to go to their forever homes until after their spay/neuters, which would make them available to "go home" the first week in April.

Wow, these pups are getting big!  In just a few weeks, they have grown by leaps and bounds. And, they sure are active!  Typical pups---lots of playing, sleeping and pooping, not necessarily in that order.  They have received many visitors and love being held and played with. They've also enjoyed their play sessions outside!  They are a lot of fun to watch.  And, interestingly enough, now that momma Molly is almost done nursing, she is playing more active with them.

Wouldn't you love some puppy kisses by Easter?  They will be neutered next week and then available for adoption!  Let your placement advisor know you'd like to meet them. I guarantee you'll fall in love with them!

Brooks is now 6 weeks old and he had his first bath today! He is very soft and cuddly now. He weighs about ten pounds and is so big he had to get a new collar. The litter is currently weaning off of Molly, so Brooks is now sleeping the night without mom. He loves to tear up the toys and play tug-o-war with his siblings. He is ready to meet his forever family!
