Milk Wars

12 puppies, 10 nipples.  You do the math.    Gayle at Avidog once described neonate puppies as heat and milk-seeking missiles.  Boy, was she not kidding.  It really is a war in there.  The smaller guys get latched on and then one of the other pups comes through underneath and knocks them all off.   We help the littler ones out a bit by putting them back in the box first after a nail trim/box cleaning so they have some alone time with the milk faucet.

Pups continue to do well.  We all survived their second nail trim.  Everyone had their collars replaced.  A few of them are trying to get their legs underneath them as they scoot along.  And I got the first whiff of puppy breath!

Tonight's scent was lemon.  It was supposed to be a game bird but it was a G and T kind of day and the lemon was to hand.
