Litter 5 - Day 9 and 10

Days 9 and 10

As Spirit is relaxing more, she is spending more and more time now out of the whelping box which is good. She needs to have a life. That gives the puppies an opportunity to make "puppy piles"! Plus they spend more time sleeping and less time nursing. By the look of them, they could USE a little less nursing. Purple boy hit the 2lb mark yesterday and now at ten days, everyone has doubled their weight or better. Orange boy is just starting to show signs that his eyes are going to open so this was the last day of photo floods and flash. If I take any pictures for the next week, it will be with natural light and my 50mm F1.8 lens which is as bright a lens as I have.
