Puppies doing well, thanks everyone (pics)

[_Samantha_]

As above suggests. All 6 puppies and mum are doing really well and I'd like to thank everyone for all the support and sound advice in response to my previous post which was mainly a feeding question.

Here are some pics from when they were about a week old...

....and some at almost 5 weeks old

Thanks for looking and again for all your help.

Aww lovely puppies

Can i ask is that the only bed mommy has i take it they are in a stable,i was only asking because stable floors can be cold and not very comfortable,bless her.

Thanks.

Yes it is the only material bed she has but they do have a fair bit of straw in the corners. Since the puppies have found out what's beyond the stable door though they tend to sleep against it. I know it's not ideal but they seem happy and vet said all are doing well.

I haven't read your other posts so excuse me if this sounds dumb, what sort are they? Staff x?

Very cute

Thanks.

Yes they are staff x with something. Some have almost rottie markings while 2 of them are border collie type colours.

As for the story, they came to us at about 5days old as their owner was on the move and didn't "have time" to find them new carer/owner, along with the mother and 2 other dogs both entire. Mummy dog hasn't coped well with the puppies but she appears very young herself.
