Onyx
Foster mom reports: At 5 weeks old, Onyx is the big boy of the litter.  He was the first to attempt to "bark" and "run".  Now that the rest of the litter has caught up, he's eager to play and is such a fun little puppy!  His little bitty tail wags so fast when he sees someone to play with (human or canine) and when he's picked up, he cuddles right in and doesn't wiggle a bit.  He loves to tackle new obstacles and climbing onto my lap is a challenge he's quick to try!  :) 
In an attempt to create well rounded little puppies, all puppies in this litter:
*spend daily time being held on their backs (to get them used to being held and knowing their owner can be trusted)
*have daily play time with me and "handling time" (where they're ears, feet, tails, faces, etc. are handled to get them used to this--improves vet and grooming visits)
*have been played with and handled with care by small children and other adults (good socialization is important for puppies to feel comfortable around all age groups and strangers)
*have also started potty training and they're all doing great with using potty pads to go potty on! 
They've also started eating softened solid food, so will be ready to be weaned very soon so get your applications in! 
 


Puppies were born January 5!  I do not expect to have these babies long, so if you are interested please get your application in ASAP!  Once they are ready to go to their new homes in March they will go fast. :)  I will try to get photo updates as often as I can.  The puppies are with their mom (her name is Crystal) in a foster home.
