"Gilligan's Island" Newborn
Just like always Molly has delivered another beautiful litter of puppies. Friday afternoon puppies began to arrive. Her first baby came around 4:30 then about ever hour to hour and a half. She is of Cours caring for her babies by keeping them nice and clean, warm, and fed. Over the next week the color in the muzzles will start to fill in and they will look more and more like little puppies. Mollys babies are being raised in Mollys guardian home and they are being doted on by all family members but especially the two little girls who are 8 and 11. They love and adore these babies and their momma Molly. They have begun ENS with them and love this chance to handle them. Mollys family does such a great job socializing and handling these little ones.
The puppies have transitioned through delivery are now in the Neonatal period. The Neonatal period last for two weeks. During this time we pay close attention to the little pups to be sure each is thriving and growing. We watch weights and observe feedings to make sure everyone is eating and gaining weight. Momma does most of the work right now and we just do a lot of observation. Mom will tend and care for her puppies instinctively and make sure all is well by keeping them fed, clean, and warm. She licks constantly to stimulate their elimination systems and to keep them clean. We began Early Neurological Stimulation on day three. ENS is a an exercise developed by puppy behaviorists and trainers that is designed to stimulate neuro-pathway growth and start the physiological basis for resistant and predictable neurological development. Is takes only a few seconds per puppy. We hold each puppy upright, head-down down and flat on the back. Then we apply pressure to one paw near the toes and then set them on a cold cloth. Each exercise is done for to 2-3 seconds. We will also clip sharp little toenails as needed.

"Spring" 5 week update
This week the puppies will begin to spend time outside during the day. They will eventually spend time outside every day sun, rain or snow. All dogs need to be comfortable with going outside in all kinds of weather.
The puppies are all very steady on their feet now and are getting really playful (especially with each other). They are doing great with their potty training by using the potty area about 95% of the time and they are keeping their beds clean all of the time. We will introduce crates to the puppies this coming week. We put all their soft bedding in the crates to encourage them to choose the crate for sleeping. They usually all pile in one crate together as they still need each other for warmth and comfort.
​
Puppies are now transitioning over to solid dry crunch kibble as they are getting their teeth. We will keep offering soft food until they all have their molars.
​
The puppies had their first barrier challenge this past week. For a mental challenge that encourages problem solving and stress tolerance, we introduce a barrier that they have to navigate to get to their food. It can be as simple as putting their food around a corner at first. We allow each puppy to negotiate the challenge at their own pace and we watch each puppy to make sure they successfully navigate to their food before we make things harder.
​
This is week three of the socialization period. This week the puppies have begun to learn and be shaped by other adult dogs in the household but especially mom. Learning dog manners is a skill that can only be taught by other dogs! We always watch interactions with other dogs closely. Mom is really the best teacher as she will stop or pin puppies that are overly energetic or that aren't picking up on cues to settle down. This interaction is important to learning good dog social skills. They are also learning how to use their teeth without causing damage. They teach each other that lesson as they constantly mouth and play with each other.
​
We will give the puppies their Neopar vaccines this week. Neopar helps develop immunity to Parvo--it is the only vaccine that is effective at this young age as these puppies still have passive immunity from nursing with mom. Some vets prefer to give full immunizations at 6 weeks of age but shots at this early stage are less than 30% effective. They have a much better immune response at 8 weeks. Our neonatal specialist recommends waiting until 8 weeks for full immmunization. Parvo is the most prevalent puppy illness so getting a head start with Neopar is important. We will talk more about vaccines in the take home information.
​
This is the week we begin "Manding" with the puppies. Manding is teaching the puppy to sit to 'say please.' This type of sit is not a cued behavior (we aren't asking them to sit), we are just instilling a natural instinct to settle down and sit calmly to get what they want. It's a way for them to communicate with us in a polite way. We simply approach them with a handful of soft treats and we give a treat to any puppy sitting quietly. We ignore the puppies that are jumping and pawing us. Eventually they all catch on that sitting nicely is what gets the reward. Peer pressure is a great thing with puppies! By the end of this week they will all have caught on and will begin expressing this very desirable behavior whenever we approach the pen.

"Spring" 3 & 4 week update
Puppies are all steady on their feet now and are starting to get more and more playful.
This is week two of the socialization period. Their little teeth are starting to erupt so this week puppies will start on solids and begin the process of weaning. We take our cues from mama--when she starts standing up to nurse we know it's time to introduce soft solid foods. First we will use ground food mixed with water. As they get used to eating and swallowing we will use regular food soaked in water until it is soft. Mom has already started to wean by spending less time in the box with them. This time will gradually increase over the next 2-3 weeks until they are no longer nursing. Mom still interacts with them throughout the day but she does so in shorter amounts of time.
Puppies will participate in their first barrier challenge in the coming week. Once they are really interested in their food I will place it behind a barrier of some sort so that they can use their problem solving skills to help work through problems or obstacles.
​
During week four our puppies usually hit what is called a fear period. This period can last only an hour or a few days. We will take extra care to be sure that if they exhibit any fear towards anything we will scale back and individually help them overcome those fears slowly. Yawning, crying, hiding or avoiding are all signs of fear in a puppy.
"Spring" Newborn
Like a champ Molly has delivered another beautiful litter of puppies. Early in the the morning on Monday the 10th at 5:00 am Molly delivered her first little girl. She was the smallest of the bunch and one by one they each got just a little bigger. Her last baby came at 7:30 am. She is caring for her babies by keeping them nice and clean, warm, and fed. Right now they look a little like rats but over the next week the color in the muzzles will start to fill in and they will look more and more like little puppies. Mollys babies are being raised in Mollys guardian home and they are being doted on by all family members but especially the two little girls who are 8 and 11. They love and adore these babies and their momma Molly. They look forward to starting ENS with them in a couple of days. Mollys family does such a great job socializing and handling these little ones.

4 week "Guardians of the Galaxy"
Puppies are all steady on their feet now and are starting to get more and more playful. They are doing great with their potty training by using the potty area about 75% of the time. When they don't use their potty area they are using their play area--they are keeping their sleep area completely clean.
This is week two of the socialization period. Their little teeth are starting to erupt so this week puppies will start on solids and begin the process of weaning. We take our cues from mama--when she starts standing up to nurse we know it's time to introduce soft solid foods. First we will use ground food mixed with water.

3 week "Guardians of the Galaxy"
Everyone has their eyes open and this past week the babies all started to toddle around really well and have started to find their little voices. We introduced a new bed/sleeping area along with our new pee/pooping area to help start these little ones on a path to easier potty training. In the beginning we have one soft bed area and the rest of the pen is potty area. We use the puppies' natural instinct to keep their bed clean to help with potty training--the minute they step off their bed to go potty they will be in the desired area. Once they are accustomed to use the paper/grate area for potty we will be able to make their play/sleep area bigger.
This week puppies will leave the transitional period and will enter the socialization period. During this time their ears open and they begin to hear. The puppies live in our living room so they are naturally exposed to a variety of noises that will help them adjust to family life: TV/movies in the background, children playing, vacuums running etc.are all familiar sounds to these babies. Over the next week we will also work on some startle recovery exercises. For startle recovery exercises we will randomly make sudden unusual noises that may startle the puppies ever so slightly to help shape their emotional responses. We watch closely to make sure there isn't a fear response and if necessary we will work with individual puppies more gradually to help them adjust to the noises.

2 week "Guardians of the Galaxy"
The puppies are all doing great. Everyone has their eyes open now. It will take a little while for them to be able to see clearly. They are starting to move around more and more. We've begun handling the puppies a lot more as mom isn't quite as nervous to have them away from her for a few minutes. Handling by young children is a daily occurrence at the Pittards home because they have built littles to help socialize them!
At two weeks of age the puppies leave the neonatal period and enter what is called the transitional period. Traditional period is typically between days 14-21. During this time we will begin to introduce them to a new novel item (toy, new bedding etc.) and or a new experience daily. These items and experiences will help to build a healthy startle/recover/curiosity/exploration cycle to lay the foundation for a confident puppy. This week we will take a dermal nail trimmer to the puppies nails for a few seconds at a time to begin to get them used to vibration and trimming of the nails. These puppies will have a lifetime of grooming and will need to be handled on their feet and toes on a regular bases. Early exposure to common grooming practices will help them be relaxed during grooming for the rest of their lives.
1 week "Guardians of the Galaxy"
Puppies are 1 week old and have all almost doubled their weight. These first 3 weeks they grow so fast!
Momma is still doing most of the work right now feeding, cleaning, and keeping them warm and happy. They are getting short times of handling and ENS daily.
The puppies are entering their 2nd week of the Neonatal period. We will continue doing ENS until they are 16 days old. At this stage the puppies can't see or hear--scent is their main interaction with the world. They are surprisingly agile little crawlers but they aren't able to get up on their feet yet. Their eyes should open somewhere between 10 days and 2 weeks.
